Chapter 327: Miracle Force?
Kong Zhendong served quickly, playing the weakness of Wang Dali's slow reaction to the serve.
Wang Dali's return to the ball was slow, but the force was not small.
The third board of this round is Liu Guobang's main attack.
Kong Zhendong had already communicated with Liu Guobang before serving.
If the serve destroys Wang Dali's rhythm of receiving the serve, then Liu Guobang will have to attack decisively.
Originally, under normal circumstances, Liu Guoba, a right-handed straight board, hit Yan Sheng, a left-handed straight board, and the two were very different from the line to the rubber.
It's often a matter of hitting some familiar balls first, and then attacking them.
However, in the doubles combination game, the fighter plane was fleeting, and Liu Guobang decisively chose the third board to attack directly.
Because the quality of Wang Dali's return ball was not high, Liu Guobang's attack was very fast and the angle was tricky, and he got this point.
After winning this point, Kong Zhendong chose the change of line and service timing in the next two serves, but the essence of the tactics has not changed, and Wang Dali's reaction speed is still the main focus.
Wang Dali is tall and has a huge area of the platform, no matter how tricky the angle is, it is difficult to make his way.
But if he didn't pursue direct scoring, Kong Zhendong's tactics were very successful.
Wang Dali can return with every ball, but the line is single and there is no threat.
Liu Guobang, who had been prepared for a long time, could calmly attack and burst into points.
Kong Zhendong and Liu Guobang scored three points in a row, and when everything was going well, after Yan Shengwang muttered vigorously for a while, his style changed abruptly!
After Kong Zhendong served quickly, Wang Dali took the initiative to withdraw without any threat.
In the 90s, table tennis was still the era when Taiwan was king.
How to force the opponent to retreat is often the mainstream tactic of table tennis batting tactics.
However, without any tactical suppression and coercion by Kong Zhendong, Wang Dali took the initiative to retreat, but he shocked the glasses of the coaching staff and the audience on the sidelines.
The most feared thing in the return link is to be completely passive.
Of all the return techniques, retreat is undoubtedly the most passive option.
Anyone who receives the serve and retreats directly from the table is a symbol of evasion and turtle shell tactics.
But in an era when everyone would be beaten up so much that they cried and called their mother, Wang Dali resolutely withdrew from the stage.
After Wang Dali retired from the stage, this ball actually became a bright village.
Wang Dali served quickly in Kong Zhendong and was restricted, and the choice of retreat was actually to exchange space for time.
After having room to retreat, Kong Zhendong's serve became easier to judge.
In the case of full force in retreating, Wang Dali's return has a better effect in terms of power than near the table.
Although Wang Dali was still unable to receive the serve and grab the attack, he directly killed Liu Guobang.
However, his vigorous attack on the second board completely suppressed Liu Guobang and created conditions for Yan Sheng to score on the fourth board.
After Wang Dali retired from the stage, he cooperated with Yan Sheng tacitly and scored two points in a row in the receiving round.
The two sides played to a 5:5 draw.
Next is Yan Sheng's serve, and Liu Guobang receives the serve.
Entering the entanglement between the serve and return of the two straight boarders, Kong Zhendong and Wang Dali have limited room to play.
Both of them fought fiercely. Often, when Yan Sheng has the advantage, he is ready for Wang Dali's third forehand volley.
If Liu Guo's serve is effective, Wang Dali's third board will fall into passivity, which will lay a good foundation for Kong Zhendong's fourth board to calmly change the line.
The two sides went back and forth, and in the end, it was Yan Shengwang who vigorously occupied the service advantage and scored 3 points.
Next, Liu Guoba serves, and Yan Sheng receives the serve.
Although it is still a duel between two straight boards of serve and return.
However, Liu Guobang, as a rare service master, is much more tricky in his rotation and route selection than Yan Sheng, and he is much more imaginative.
Of course, Liu Guobang's serve can play so well, and it also depends on the wonderful cooperation with Kong Zhendong.
Every look and every micro-expression of the two can seamlessly comprehend each other's intentions.
This is comparable to the ten years of cooperation of the rest of the partners.
With such a tacit understanding of cooperation, Kong Zhendong's connection and attack on the third board are much easier to use than Wang Dali's last link.
Therefore, Kong Zhendong and Liu Guobang grabbed four points on their own serve.
With a score of 11:9, the two sides ended the first half of the game.
Next, Wang Dali continued to serve five balls, and the rotation of the serve was Liu Guobang.
Wang Dali, who served well, met Liu Guobang, who had a strong sense of receiving and attacking.
Compared with the service stage, Wang Dali can also choose to retreat and use space to maneuver with Kong Zhendong and Liu Guobang.
But he is now on the serving side and must launch a first board attack near the table.
Due to the long preparation time of Wang Dali's serve, the timing of the serve is easy to capture.
The entire service round, on the contrary, was repeatedly snatched by Liu Guobang's serve.
Liu Guobang led the offense from the second edition, and it was Kong Zhendong's fourth board that really scored the score.
After some scramble, in this receiving round, Kong Zhendong and Liu Guobang grabbed three points, and with a score of 14:11, they entered Liu Guobang's service round.
Liu Guobang served five balls, and Wang vigorously received the serve.
Wang hit the ball vigorously, pursuing a forehand pull, straight to the point, and vigorously performing miracles.
However, Liu Guobang's serve is famous for avoiding reality and fiction, and winning with lines and tricky landing points.
Wang Dali faced Liu Guobang's tricky line ball, and always had to run back and forth to receive the table tennis ball.
After receiving the ball, it is difficult to fully exert the power because of the awkward position and awkward posture.
In this way, a strong man who is alive and well has been suffocated into a little lady by Liu Guoba's ball path.
Wang Dali's return ball quality is not high, facing Yan Sheng, who is good at fighting, Kong Zhendong sat on the third board, and very wisely did not choose to continue to attack the third board.
Because Yan Sheng saw Wang Dali's passivity, he had already made use of the unique advantage of the left-handed straight board, and in the face of Kong Zhendong's attack, he directly used the attack to fight with a strong pull.
In this way, the two sides can also be evenly matched.
Kong Zhendong was smart and did not enter the shopping mode with Yan Sheng.
He opted to change the tempo with his own backhand slices.
At this time, Yan Sheng held back his strength, waiting to fight against Kong Zhendong and attack, but Kong Zhendong's return rhythm suddenly changed, and the ball became erratic.
This made Yan Sheng, who was holding back his strength, feel like a heavy punch on the cotton.
It has no effect at all, and it also makes me very depressed when I overexert myself.
Kong Zhendong's changing rhythm worked wonders, Yan Sheng either caught the ball out of bounds, or successfully returned the ball but rose to the top, giving Liu Guobang a very comfortable opportunity to attack and kill the ball.
This round of service game is the smoothest service round with Liu Guobang and Kong Zhendong, with multiple scoring methods, and the two easily get 4 points.
The score came to 18:12, if Wang Dali Yan Sheng didn't have an earth-shattering killer feature, this score gap was enough to end the first game.
At this time, it was Yan Sheng's turn to serve five balls, and Kong Zhendong received the serve.
