Chapter 43: Playing to the Advantage
Skills are not as good as others?! Everyone in the private room was stunned, these words came out of Coach Ma's mouth, the weight was different, not to mention that he was talking about his apprentice Xiao Zhan, which was even more incomprehensible.
Xu Bin was a little unhappy, how could Coach Ma's words sound a little bit of a long-term ambition and extinguish his own prestige, so he asked: "Coach Ma, what you said is not right, Xiao Zhan is an active player, and he is an outstanding young athlete in the provincial team, how can his skills not be as good as a retired long-distance mobilizer?" ”
"Yes, Coach Ma, what do you mean by that?" Gao Ya also asked questions, but she was a little curious, not accusatory.
But Xu Bin didn't think so, when he saw that the leaders were on his side, he was more confident, and he had to let Coach Ma give an explanation.
Surrounded by a room of people, Coach Ma seemed calm, only to see him smile, and analyzed: "I analyzed yesterday, although Han Cang retired, he was the number one player in all the provincial teams, and his skills were not picky, and his basic skills are the best I have ever seen, the transfer of the ball in the backcourt and the finding point of the ball in front of the net He is at the top level, even after retiring for a year, it is still the same." ”
Coach Ma clasped his hands on his chest, stared at the arena below, replaying the impressive picture in the first game in his mind, and said while thinking: "Xiao Zhan's technique of killing the opposite corner with his head can be said to be unique and impeccable, and it is impossible for any receiving technique to stop his killing, which is due to the flight distance and flight altitude of the entire killing ball." Let the badminton fly over the court with a trajectory and height close to a flat draw, directly through from one bottom line to another, and always maintain a high speed like a kill, this is the key to Xiao Zhan's killing ball can hit 100 shots and score when he shoots, but Han Cang just took advantage of it - many of the balls that Han Cang picked in the backcourt were actually out-of-bounds. ”
Throw-in? When the people present heard this, they couldn't help but show surprised eyes.
I saw Coach Ma nodding and continued: "Only a player like Han Cang, who has very solid basic skills, can make such accurate adjustments to the control of the ball. Some of the return balls he gave Xiao Zhan were actually going out of bounds, but Xiao Zhan may not have realized it, of course, he was not to blame, because Han Cang did a good job of controlling the distance, the difference between the throw-in ball and the in-bounds ball was originally only the width of a white line, but if it was a throw-in, then Xiao Zhan's kill ball would inevitably be longer than his expected flight distance, so as to really hit the opponent's bottom line, if he didn't find out that it was a throw-in and hit the ball with the original force, then the flight distance of the ball must be insufficient, If you can't fly to the diagonal bottom line, there will be a downward trend, as long as Han Cang knows which side the ball will fly to, it is not difficult to rush up in advance to intercept it. ”
But Xu Bin didn't buy it when he heard it, and retorted: "But even if the flight distance of this ball is extended, as long as Xiao Zhan's hitting power is big enough, can't he still hit the diagonal bottom line?" ”
The other managers nodded in agreement after hearing this, even Zhang Wenlin thought that what Xu Bin said made sense, although he hated this hypocritical villain, but Xiao Zhan's strength was still very recognized, if Xu Bin hadn't dug the wall, Zhang Wenlin's first choice was actually Xiao Zhan, but now that he has picked up Han Cang's missing pearl, it can only be said that it is a blessing in disguise.
In the face of doubts, I saw Coach Ma pick up the cup next to him, take a sip, and then said: "That's why I said that the skills are not as good as others, Xiao Zhan's control of the killing distance and strength is far less accurate than Han Cang's control of the ball in the backcourt, if Xiao Zhan hits the ball with more power, the ball will fly out of bounds if it is not good, so from this point of view, there is indeed a gap compared with Han Cang." But that's fine, let him go through it, young man, he always has to try and fail. ”
Fail?! Xu Bin panicked, this second game hasn't started yet, Coach Ma is so arbitrary, how can he think that Xiao Zhan will lose? I saw that his face was so angry that his face turned green, and he really wanted to pour a bottle of wine on the head of the surnamed Ma!
As a result, the second game really responded to Ma Luoping's words, although the first half of the game has improved greatly compared with the previous game, the two sides played back and forth, Xiao Zhan even once discovered the secret of Han Cang's backcourt ball, and used the opponent's two out-of-bounds to pick out the bottom line, recovered 2 points, and finally entered the sweat time with a score of 9-11, only two points behind, better than the previous game.
But after the sweat wiping time ended, the situation suddenly began to be one-sided, Xiao Zhan seemed to have become slack, there were several picks that were obviously in-bounds, he actually chose to let them all go, hoping that the ball would go out of bounds, as a result, he lost points continuously, and the situation became more and more passive.
Xu Bin couldn't help it, and stood up and asked, "This... How does this work? Why put the ball away, isn't that tantamount to gambling! Coach Ma, what's the matter with you as a player? ”
Xu Bin's voice was full of dissatisfaction and accusations, and without waiting for Coach Ma to speak, Gao Ya, who was sitting next to him, suddenly reminded: "Manager Xu, if you influence the judges to watch the competition again, please go out." ”
Gao Ya's words shook Xu Bin back, he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the leader, but Coach Ma waved his hand with a smile, and said calmly: "It's okay, it's okay, Manager Xu also hopes that Xiao Zhan can win, so he will say this, but it's a pity... Xiao Zhan's physical consumption is too great, and now he has entered a period of fatigue, not that he doesn't want to kill or save the ball, but he has more than enough strength but not enough, just like Lin Huang yesterday, his physical fitness has declined very seriously, so the rhythm of the attack has naturally slowed down. ”
Gao Ya: "In other words, it wasn't that Xiao Zhan didn't want to kill the ball just now, but that he didn't have enough physical fitness, so he didn't kill the ball." ”
Coach Ma nodded, sighed and said: "I really didn't expect it, I thought the physical fitness of these young people was already very good, but there was a decline in physical fitness in the game, and it was still an old athlete who had been retired for a year, I have to say that Han Cang was quite well prepared for this interview, and his understanding of the 21-point system was also more profound, it seems that the failure of the National Games last year made him grow a lot, and it is a pity to retire......
Listening to Coach Ma's words, Gao Ya next to him looked thoughtful, staring at the arena below, and a faint smile rose at the corner of his mouth.
Ten minutes later, the game was over, and the final score was fixed at 21-13, and Han Cang crushed his opponent with a devastating force to claim the first victory in the group knockout round.
At the end of the game, Han Cang walked through the arena, and according to professional etiquette, he first shook hands with the referees one by one, and then walked to Xiao Zhan on the opposite side.
"I've admired the name for a long time, but it's a pity that you retired last year, and I thought I wouldn't have a chance to fight against you, a legend of the provincial team." Xiao Zhan behaved generously, caught Han Cang's hand and shook it.
Han Cang: "Awards." ”
After speaking, Han Cang turned around and left, packed up his equipment, and returned to the room to rest under the leadership of the staff, he still had a game with Chen Feng in the afternoon, so he had to recharge his energy and maintain his physical fitness.
Although the players have already left, in the private room on the second floor, everyone has to continue to watch the next game, Gao Ya got up and went to the bathroom, and said with a smile when he passed by Zhang Wenlin: "You found a very interesting player, Manager Zhang." ”
Zhang Wenlin was slightly stunned, and when he came back to his senses, Gao Ya had already walked past him, and Manager Liu, who was standing next to him, smiled at him and gave him a thumbs up: "Congratulations, Lao Zhang, this time the leader is very satisfied with your work!" ”
