Chapter 020: Coaching Performance

Guo Bing asked Li Jun curiously: "You and Hong Tao are offensive players, Kong Zhendong said that he is good at defending each other, isn't it normal for you to press him to play?" ”

Li Jun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I thought so before today. It wasn't until he just said the height of the net and the quality of the return that it dawned on me. In the past few years, I have played in the army, and because of the conditions, I have played wild balls on the open-air table, so I have become accustomed to returning the ball at a height of 12 cm. ”

Guo Bing guessed what Li Jun meant, and he was surprised: "Kong Zhendong can't be so stupid, right?" ”

Li Jun smiled: "You have already guessed, this is not stupid at all, maybe it is pride!" Hong Tao and I both returned the ball at a height of 12 centimeters, but in retrospect, each of Kong Zhendong's returns was more than 15 centimeters. The return ball was so high, of course, it gave us the opportunity to smash the attack, and our attack only needed to go over 12 cm of bricks, so of course our attack went crazy. Although Kong Zhendong has been defending, he still insists that every board return is more than 15 centimeters. ”

Ye Xiaoya nodded and said: "I understand, now Kong Zhendong and Li Xiuzhe are playing under a 15-centimeter regular net, so every ball of Kong Zhendong is pasted to the net, and Li Xiuzhe's return ball has to be higher than 15 centimeters, so it is not so easy to get started!" ”

Kong Zhendong and Lee so-chul pushed a few balls, and after adapting to the new ball, the game began, and Lee so-cheol took the lead in serving.

Lee so-cheol hooked his left hand backhand, and during the ball falling, the straight board with his right hand rubbed diagonally downward, a standard Korean washboard serve.

It's a straight line of tee, but it's very fast.

The most terrifying thing is that the high-speed running table tennis ball is also rubbed out of high-speed spin.

The table tennis ball rotated at high speed and went straight to Kong Zhendong's backhand.

If he faced Hong Tao or Li Jun a few days ago, Kong Zhendong would habitually use his backhand to overboard and dispatch the opponent through landing point control.

However, in the face of Korean-style play, Kong Zhendong aroused a stronger desire to win.

Kong Zhendong slapped horizontally with his right hand, and drew the ball backwards with his backhand first, without doing any rotation, but with a quick pluck, the table tennis ball rebounded back at a higher speed.

to respond faster and faster.

This is the stunt of Swedish star Persson.

South Korea's dominant god Liu Nankui faced the Chinese player, and his forehand burst always prevailed. But in the face of Persson, who was all-round in Europe, he was immediately beaten.

Persson was overlooked because he and Waldner jointly established the Swedish dynasty, and Waldner's strength and achievements were too dazzling, so Persson was called the shadow champion and was ignored.

In fact, the late 80s and early 90s were Persson's peak, and at this time in his previous life, Persson suffered the loss of his father and a tragic car accident, which buried the competitive state of his prime.

After the turn of the millennium, although Persson is still active in the international arena and has been named a living fossil in the table tennis world, he is only a mascot in his old age, and it is difficult to have outstanding results.

Among the many ways to restrain the South Korean team, Kong Zhendong chose to borrow from Persson's method because it was the simplest and roughest.

Persson's backhand plucking technique is far worse than that of Wang Yajun in the late over-ball era, and the backhand twisting and pulling technique developed by Zico is of course far worse.

However, in today's small-ball era, a backhand pluck is the most efficient response.

With a super fast rebound, force the opponent's backhand ball back to the forehand. Then Persson will use the crushing forehand strength that has been tempered in Europe to destroy the South Korean opponent in a grand manner.

The reason why Kong Zhendong couldn't use this set of tactics to deal with Kim Cheol-joo in his previous life was that when Persson's skills flashed, he already had a mature playing system in his previous life, and on the other hand, his forehand was not as crushing as Persson's strength compared to Kim Zhezhu.

Kong Zhendong can't crush Kim Cheol-joo with his forehand, but it is easy to crush Lee so-chul.

Kong Zhendong's ball was played quickly, forcing Li Xiuzhe to reluctantly return the ball and swing short, and the quality was not high.

Kong Zhendong came to the stage and pulled out the topspin ball, forcing Li Xiuzhe to barely push it with his forehand, and then Kong Zhendong scored with a forehand smash.

The standard backhand flick, force back forehand, and forehand smash complete tactics.

On top of this, Kong Zhendong also added something new, that is, every time he hits the ball, he will shout to guide Li Xiuzhe to deal with it, this wonderful scene, the second ball began to be more obvious.

In the second ball, Kong Zhendong served, and he said: "Forehand short ball!" ”

Sure enough, a short ball was served, and before Li Xiuzhe received the ball, Kong Zhendong said: "The hook slash is short with a backhand." ”

Li Xiuzhe seemed to be obedient to hook a slash ball, Kong Zhendong's backhand again sensitively bounced in a straight line, directly attacking Li Xiuzhe's forehand far platform close to the edge area.

At the same time, Kong Zhendong said: "Straight line long ball, half retreat, dial back!" ”

Li Xiuzhe really stepped back like a marionette and barely brought the ball back, and Kong Zhendong smashed another diagonal score with a forehand! 2:0

Guo Bing watched Li Xiuzhe being manipulated by Kong Zhendong like a marionette, and said excitedly: "Why is this little white face so obedient this time?" Zhendong plays like a disciple! ”

Li Jun smiled bitterly: "Can you be disobedient?" The disobedient ball can't be caught at all! ”

As if to confirm Li Jun's words, Li Xiuzhe was annoyed and angry, and the third and fourth balls did not hit the ball in the way Kong Zhendong shouted, resulting in a ball flying and a ball going down the net.

Kong Zhendong's teaching play continues.

Among the onlookers, the most surprised was Director Sun of the Sports Committee, who had practiced table tennis for a long time, although he did not come out in the end, but his basic skills were still there.

After Kong Zhendong hit the ball, Director Sun would substitute himself in Li Xiuzhe's position, thinking about how to deal with it and how to return the ball. As a result, I was surprised to find that I could only reluctantly return the ball according to Kong Zhendong's guidance.

If you are not obedient, you will either fly or go to the net, and Li Xiuzhe even has a ball that does not believe in evil and wants to grab it, but it turns out that the bounce speed of the ball is completely different from what is expected, and he doesn't catch the ball when he swings the racket.

Director Sun felt sorry for Li Xiuzhe's waist when he saw that ball. The whole body exerted strength, but he couldn't pull the ball, and the psoas muscles were definitely injured.

All onlookers understood that the ball between Kong Zhendong and Li Xiuzhe was not a real duel at all, but like a coach, patiently feeding the ball to his disciple and guiding the disciple to return the ball with various skills.

Rebellious disciples always have their own ideas, and they always want to rebel against the miserable ones who go out of a new way and are repaired by the coach.

Everyone watched with relish, and the score disparity came to 15:0, 16:0, 17:0. The leaders could announce the cessation of the game, but no one called for a stop, and everyone benefited greatly from Kong Zhendong's guidance, and they liked to watch such a game.

The score came to 20:0 and everyone waited for the final ball to applaud and salute. Lee so-chul has been beaten to doubt his life, and hopes to end this ordeal as soon as possible.

This ball, Kong Zhendong unexpectedly returned the ball to the net. 20:1

Kong Zhendong said lightly: "Teach you the last one, you can't shave your head when you play, and you have to give a point for a penalty!" ”
