Lu Ning waved the thick single juniper, and he was very handy with the extremely heavy boards of the other players.

1:0, He Zhiwen's predecessors created a good start, which is both an advantage and a spur.

He Zhiwen's predecessors used his forehand explosion and backhand to prove that the straight board is practiced to the extreme, and it can still defeat the so-called comprehensive horizontal board two-sided pull opponent.

Staring at Kong Zhendong, who was slowly jumping to warm up on the other side of the table, Lu Ning found that he hadn't seen him for a year, and the young man's height had not changed much, but he was a little thicker.

Hehe, is the basic training of the national team just to increase strength? If that's all there is to it, then let's taste what it's like to be abused.

Kong Zhendong finished the warm-up and began to push with Lu Ning, pulling to adapt to the new ball.

After just a few simple versions of practice, he felt that in terms of the whole rhythm, Lu Ning's state was completely different from that of a year ago.

This ball does have extraordinary significance for Lu Ning.

In the previous singles tournament competition, Lu Ning only won the quarterfinals, and the singles quota for the Olympic Games was already out of reach.

However, in the past two days, the supplementary document for the selection of Olympic table tennis players of the International Table Tennis Federation has been issued.

This year, the biggest change required by the ITTF for Olympic players is that almost all singles players must participate in doubles competitions.

This document has been spread in a small area within the national team, and Lu Ning is naturally ecstatic when he hears the news.

Although he only won the quarterfinals in singles, he and Wang Tao of the People's Liberation Army formed a doubles combination to win the men's doubles championship at the National Championships again.

It can be said that the current Wang Tao Lu Ning is already the first doubles combination in China, and it is also the most promising combination of the men's table tennis national team to hit the Olympic gold medal.

Because of the regulations that ITTF players must participate in singles and doubles at the same time, Lu Ning can compete for the singles quota of the Olympic Games with his excellent doubles results.

But there is a lingering stain on his bid for a spot.

That is, he once lost to a twelve-year-old provincial team teenager in the Table Tennis Association Cup.

Such a humble performance, when it comes to the Olympic Games, isn't it a shame for the Chinese team?

To shatter such doubts, he must defeat Kong Zhendong today, and it is a quick victory in all aspects!

Lu Ning began to serve, straight short ball, and attacked Kong Zhendong's backhand.

Kong Zhendong stepped forward, leaned forward, waved a flexible pick with his right hand, and the table tennis ball ran away with Lu Ning's backhand.

The backhand of the Japanese straight single cypress has an irreparable loophole.

I haven't seen you for a year, can you make up for the loophole of the Japanese backhand so quickly? I don't believe it.

Kong Zhendong resolutely implemented the pre-game arrangements of the coaching staff, which was also his own judgment, suppressed the backhand without hesitation, and raided the forehand when he had the opportunity.

Lu Ning's backhand didn't add a new trick, but his legs slammed into a stumble.

Kong Zhendong's eyes shrank: Nearly 1.8 meters tall, such a big cross-step, so fast?

The tall Lu Ning, a cross-step with a big stride, moved his body directly to the backhand position.

What's even more amazing is that while Lu Ning moves his feet in the lower half of his body, his upper body is ready to exert force sideways.

Lu Ning directly forced a side-pull with a forehand in the backhand position, and quickly punched the hole Zhendong forehand triangle to score.

Kong Zhendong gasped: Lu Ning's coach is really amazing.

The backhand disadvantage he exposed in the Table Tennis Association Cup last year is irreparable.

Lu Ning's coach really didn't make up for the skills in his hands, but increased his foot training.

Wu Jingping? This geek who didn't have outstanding results in his playing days really has a unique training idea.

The taller the person, the less flexible the steps.

But as long as he works hard, Lu Ning, who is tall and long, still has a great advantage in moving in a straight line.

In the next few balls, Kong Zhendong and Lu Ning entered a stalemate.

Once Lu Ning's forehand burst is comfortably pulled up, not to mention Kong Zhendong, there are no more than five people in the world who can hold each other.

Kong Zhendong's backhand rhythm and landing point control skills at this time, in terms of strength, speed, and coordination After more than a year of hard training by the national team, he already has the ability to control close to his previous life.

The two fought back and forth between the forehand and backhand.

In terms of footsteps, Kong Zhendong's footsteps have always been known as the first in China, but Lu Ning's pace has given full play to his height advantage, and his straight-line movement speed is impeccable, and the two are also inseparable in step scheduling.

Although the two sides are alternating between points, Kong Zhendong obviously feels that he is getting more and more at a disadvantage.

Because Lu Ning's forehand can be pulled sideways in the backhand position, but he can't beat Lu Ning on the forehand, as the game progresses, he can only score with his backhand in the two-sided arc circle technique, and Lu Ning, who is known as a one-sided play, can score with his forehand and backhand.

Several service rounds alternated, Kong Zhendong fell behind 13:17, and what was even more difficult was that Lu Ning served five balls next.

Coach Zheng sighed: "It seems that there is no way, Zhendong has played to the extreme." It also forced Lu Ning's hard training of the national team for more than a year. Although defeated, it is still glorious. ”

"What I'm worried about is not this game, but after the two of them fight in an all-round way, I can't find Lu Ning's shortcomings at all. When the meeting is over, how can I explain the tactics of the next game to Zhendong? Coach Li Muhua smiled helplessly.

There was no hope for the sideline coaching staff, but Kong Zhendong did not give up. All conventional techniques and tactics have been shown, and Lu Ning, who strengthens his steps and runs smoothly throughout Taiwan, is almost insoluble when his physical fitness is not in a state.

But that's almost!

Lu Ning served a forehand short ball again with a unique side spin.

Kong Zhendong kicked his feet and went directly to the stage.

The racket in the right hand is handed straight out, and it is almost a fast swing with a horizontal board.

Coach Zheng was puzzled: "It's just a short connection, why do you want to go on stage?" ”

Coach Li Muhua shrank his eyes and said, "It's a continuous force." Just like his last backhand forehand blast, this time it must be a new continuous force! ”

Kong Zhendong's swing short hitting timing was very forward, the ball fell sharply over the net, and the arc was pressed very low.

Lu Ning was forced to rub a long ball.

Kong Zhendong retreated half a step, and the general drew his sword to reappear in the rivers and lakes!

Kong Zhendong led the shot to his left waist and abdomen, and the racket swung diagonally upwards as if drawing a sword.

Snort ~ Smack ~ The perfect combination of impact and friction.

Kong Zhendong's forehand grabbed the swing of the stage, followed by a continuous backhand pull, and the coherent force directly hit the triangle area of the far platform to score, 14:17.

He Zhiwen, who had been sitting on the sidelines and was disdainful of Kong Zhendong's style of play, suddenly froze in his eyes.

This ball is very weird! is not only passive and active in receiving points, nor is it simply chasing the difference to three points, but the continuous force of that kid, which seems to have a strange rhythm hidden in it.

This kind of rhythm is very peculiar, He Zhiwen can't figure it out, but he instinctively feels that it is very dangerous.
