Chapter 320: Lingnan Shuangsha
At half past two in the afternoon, the table tennis men's doubles competition of the 93 National Games continued to compete for the second round.
Because table tennis is a key event of the National Games, the Capital Gymnasium emptied several competition venues at the same time as table tennis venues.
Many players are registered for both singles and doubles competitions, so the organizing committee of the tournament adopts a separate system for singles and doubles competitions.
Kong Zhendong and others will compete in three group stages for three consecutive days.
There are 16 teams in total, and 32 matches are played every day, so even if the organizing committee arranges the matches from morning to night, there are more than six matches at the same time.
Kong Zhendong and Liu Guobang are not big names at this time, but Li Jing is the runner-up in singles at last year's National Championships after all, and only lost to Ma Wenhua in the final.
In terms of the gold content of domestic competitions alone, the National Championships is already the highest level of competition after the National Games.
Li Jing's results are there, and the Lingnan team originally redeemed the strongest local team, and the Lingnan combination often has a fan base in the capital that does not lose to local masters.
Due to these considerations, the organizing committee of the competition arranged the duel between Kong Zhendong, Liu Guobang and Li Jinggao Lize at half past two in the afternoon, which is a relatively large audience period.
But once he started practicing to warm up, Kong Zhendong and Liu Guobang frowned.
The two actually felt the feeling of almost playing away at the Capital Gymnasium.
Li Jing Gao Lize not only got the support of Lingnan fans, but today Hong Kong Island fans and Treasure Island fans are chanting their names on the spot.
Obviously, Hong Kong Island fans also see them as a family, who often communicate across the sea.
The biggest difference between doubles and singles is that players don't have to bury their thoughts and analyses in their hearts during the game, but can communicate quietly with their peers, and at the same time can develop codes and gestures to facilitate the secret transmission of intentions and avoid miscommunication being broken by opponents one by one.
Kong Zhendong discussed with Liu Guobang in a whisper at this time: "The Lingnan people's table tennis business foundation is operating very successfully. Anyway, I'm still a member of the capital team, and the home field is completely blown up. ”
After Liu Guobang received a few boards of the opponent's serve in a row, he stepped forward and said: "Although Gao Lize's current style of play is still a little exaggerated, their strength should be favored by Yang Ma." But I was not reconciled. Even in the eyes of the media, we are a quick-effect combination that pursues the results of the National Games, and there is no championship at all. But I just want to prove that my straight plate is a way to play that can soar. ”
At the beginning of the game, Li Jing served, Kong Zhendong received the serve, Gao Lize hit the ball, and finally Liu Guobin hit the ball.
When Li Jing and Gao Lize stood up and put on a posture, Kong Zhendong and Liu Guobang realized that this pair of opponents is also a rare doubles combination.
And compared with Wang Fei and Qin Zhijian, what is more legendary about this pair is that Li Jing is a traditional right-handed straight board fast attack, and Gao Lize is tall, but he is a rare left-handed straight board anti-rubber warrior with an assault effect.
Such a combination of two straight firepower naturally makes the game have a sense of deflagration at the beginning of the game.
Kong Zhendong said with a smile: "I have only seen such a complementary double-straight board continuous attack in Taiwan in the combination of Liu Nankui and Kim Zhezhu, and Li Jing has the top straight board offensive firepower in China, so you can't take it lightly." ”
Liu Guobang nodded knowingly.
Li Jing is short in stature, but when she focuses on serving, the first ball is sharp and spinning.
Kong Zhendong is fast and fast. In the face of the continuous attack of the straight board, it is still the top double straight board continuous attack player in China like Li Jing and Gao Lize.
If there is a little other distraction, the continuous pumping of the double straight board will definitely make Kong Zhendong lose and let the head of the army pump the back of his head.
Kong Zhendong chose a fast backhand with the same speed.
This move is a backhand move, but Gao Lize has been prepared for a long time, and would rather receive the ball for a shorter time, but stuffed the table tennis ball into the dead corner of Liu Guobang's backhand.
Liu Guobang's forehand in the backhand position was pulled sideways, which also blinded the eyes of the two straight board masters.
Such a fast, such a ruthless backhand tricky killing, was really impressed by Li Jing, who had just despised.
Li Jing is short in stature, his defensive ability is naturally weakened, and his running ability in Taiwan is poor.
But Li Jing shouted, and the vigorous power in her thin body that shocked the world exploded again.
Li Jing's legs slammed on the ground as if she had stepped on Hot Wheels, and as soon as her body staggered, she successfully moved to the backhand position and her forehand was quickly pumped.
Kong Zhendong expected that Li Jing might receive this table tennis ball, but he didn't expect Li Jing's instantaneous explosiveness to be so strong, how could such a passive backhand catch be so explosive?
Kong Zhendong tried his best to catch the ball, but directly lost this point.
Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was not affected by the previous goal, Dong Song quickly sent out the second ball.
Kong Zhendong's eyes froze, his legs kicked, and he quickly moved forward.
I'm not jealous either.
In Li Jinggao Like's unexpectedly Dong Song's serve, Kong Zhendong suddenly exploded, and a slash was killed.
Gao Lize rushed to the situation. This ball is already certain to die for ordinary people.
Because it's a quick smash to the right hand backhand.
Gao Lize is a left-handed player, so this must-kill blow is on his forehand, and he still has the strength to fight.
At the same time, Gao Lize is not only a left-handed straight boarder, but also a tall left-handed straight boarder with delicate and comprehensive skills.
Most left-handed straight-handed players play the world with a strange board, relying on the opponent's discomfort and surprise attack to score points.
Gao Lize is a power player. In the past, he was ridiculed by his opponents as too honest.
Gao Lize, who has a thick style of ball, has never made his mark in Lingnan, where his style of play is strange and changeable.
Singles players such as Liu Guokun and Ma Lin, who have outstanding specialties and unique playing styles, have all been among the main lineup of the Lingnan team, but he has been excluded from the singles lineup with thicker basic skills.
Why? It is his left-handed straight board with extreme defects in the ball path, and the basic skills of the hard bridge and hard horse, and in the singles, he will be beaten by a horizontal board player with solid basic skills.
But this ball is precisely Gao Lize's tall body, sufficient strength and huge platform area to receive Kong Zhendong's return ball.
It is also Gao Lize's strength ball play style that makes this left-handed weird ball return ball, but it is mighty and powerful.
Liu Guobang is known for his clever changes, what weird ball paths, careful thinking and playing style are paper tigers in front of him.
However, in the face of Gao Lize's mighty strength ball, Liu Guobang was difficult to parry.
Liu Guobang barely returned the ball and was not threatening.
Li Jing once again exploded with great power and scored directly with a strong pump.
In this way, in the first two goals, Li Jinggao and Lize showed their strengths, which can be called a black wind and two evils!
