Chapter 137: Marin's Challenge

Li Jing's last few points conceded a stronger determination for Mi Xingbang to ask Li Jing to change his playing style, even if he suffered infamy, he had to try bravely.

Such a good situation, not to mention the audience and various news newspapers that are optimistic about the Lingnan team in advance, even the capital team itself has never thought about it.

Head coach Li Muhua and others made the most difficult preparations, but they didn't expect the capital team to get the first 2:0 since the start of the championship.

The smooth sailing capital team coaching staff found themselves so easily crossed the Lingnan first brother, and the most capable straight board Li Jing two high mountains, only a 13-year-old Marin was left on the road, and all the coaches began to look forward to a happy 3:0.

As for Marlin? A 13-year-old inheritor of straight anti-glue? Most of them are defective products of the reform of the straight board and anti-glue, which are destined to be swept into the existence of the old paper pile.

Xiong Kezhi is complacent, since the third singles defeat of the Heihe Provincial team in the last game, Xiong Ke believes that the shackles on his body have been lifted, and this victory ending Lingnan will become his own brilliant battle.

In the entire capital team, the one who attaches the most importance to Marin is probably Kong Zhendong. However, before the war, it was taboo for soldiers to elevate their opponents and increase unnecessary pressure on their teammates, so Kong Zhendong also encouraged Xiong Ke with everyone to win and sweep Lingnan.

Marin serves first. Kong Zhendong found that his body was beating slightly before serving, and this rhythm also increased the variation and small movements of his serve.

Hmm~ The racket leans back slightly, the ball speed is super fast, the angle is tricky, but judging from the racket type, it should be a downspin ball?

Kong Zhendong's eyes shrank: Sure enough, today's Marin has initially mastered the essence of the 'turn ~ no turn' serving method.

Xiong Ke felt that this scene was familiar, but he hadn't come back to his senses yet, and he lost points directly after misjudging the spin.

The next few serves, also switching back and forth between spinning and not spinning

"I feel that Marin's understanding of the rhythm of turning and not turning is weaker than yours, but his natural serving advantage of the straight board causes his spin ~ not to forward the ball to be more threatening than you!" Zhang Lei whispered to Kong Zhendong.

Kong Zhendong nodded: "His feints are also deceptive above me." It's not enough to have your opponent guess whether to turn or not, it also needs to be deceptive, and he does this better than me. ”

Xiong Ke fortunately saw Kong Zhendong use this kind of serve in the previous game, and discussed cracking it after the game.

With past experience, Xiongko was able to steal a point from Marin's five serves.

The method that Xiong can choose is to retreat, delay the hitting time, and fully judge the rotation and line of the table tennis ball.

Kong Zhendong feels that this style of play is the most passive, but it is relatively the least likely to lose points.

When it came to Xiongke's service round, Marin ran all over the court, and he was quite active in receiving serves. Xiong Ke is still quite passive in his own service round.

Kong Zhendong was a little anxious: "You can't let him rush up!" After all, he is a straight board for attacking, and the positive board will have a good arc circle. ”

Zhang Lei said: "Straight plate anti-rubber arc circle? Is it Qin Zhijian, Wang Fei? With that level of arcing, it doesn't matter if you send him off the ball. Oh, that power? ”

Marin turned sideways slightly, and his forehand was extremely sufficient, and the table tennis ball seemed to be sucked onto the racket at high speed. Marlin waved his arms to the limit. The lower limbs exert force, the force is transmitted to the waist, and the waist drives the entire upper body to rotate rapidly, and at the same time, the arm has a clamping and lifting force.

Coach Wu Jingping's eyes were full of colorful ripples: "From the legs, to the waist, shoulders, elbows, and wrists, the power of each part is used to the limit." With his small body, the absolute strength is definitely not large, but the body coordination of his forehand is too perfect, he is a good seedling! ”

Mi Xingbang and Yin Xiao also nodded. Mi Xingbang was originally disappointed with the straight board anti-glue, but he didn't expect that there were such good seedlings among the young provincial team members, so this experimental style of play also has the need to continue to pass on!

Seeing the power of this ball, I was even more surprised by Zhang Lei and other members of the capital team. Because Kong Zhendong used similar power techniques when his strength was insufficient before. Ma Lin's movements at this time were more skillful than Kong Zhendong's, and the borrowed force was also greater.

The 22-year-old Xiong Ke couldn't catch the forehand blast of 13-year-old Marin.

With the forehand completely at a disadvantage, Xiongko began to shift the traditional advantage of the horizontal board.

When the horizontal board plays the straight board, we must strive to give full play to the advantages of both sides and the big side.

Xiongko began to play a two-sided arc to mobilize the ball.

Although Marin's backhand has rubber, but the ball is awkward, he still chooses to play one-sidedly.

Zhang Lei breathed a sigh of relief: "After all, he is still the successor of the one-sided style of play, and as soon as Xiong Ke's ball road is opened, he can still win." ”

Kong Zhendong shook his head, just looking at Ma Lin's current pace of movement in the future.

There has always been a saying within the national table tennis that in the era of small ball, the best footwork of the Chinese team is Kong Zhendong. In the era of big balls, the best footwork of the Chinese team is Ma Lin.

Although he plays one-sidedly, with the support of the full-court sports style of play known as the electric small motor, in the era of big balls, no matter how fast the ball style is, no matter how big the contrast angle, it can't suppress Marin's movement.

He runs sideways on the backhand. What's more perfect is that the quality of the board is extremely high, and it can quickly turn the passive into the active, followed by the continuous bombardment of the forehand.

In today's small-ball era, where the return speed is faster, Marin's running advantage is certainly not as perfect as in the over-ball era, but Kumakoben Province is not a commencement opponent for the mall Kombat.

Xiong Ke's ball speed is similar to the return speed of the top masters in the big ball era, and after Marin runs away, he does not fall behind at all.

The 13-year-old Marin's pace is not as weird and changeable as in later generations, but the counteroffensive skills under sports have been initially equipped.

Marin is definitely a super golfer who counterattacks in the retreat, half-crouches counterattacks, and saves the ball in embarrassment.

These technical factors were integrated into his playing system when he was a child in the first practice.

Kong Zhendong thinks that Marin's game, why is there always a magic ball? The root of this kind of play is that no matter how passive he is, the counterattack is imprinted into his soul.

Therefore, in this game, he saw Marin's half-crouching diagonal under the disposition, the reverse pull under the jumping retreat to save the ball, and the middle lifting the big slash in the retreat.

Xiong Ke vowed to win the 3:0 skyrocketing pride, and under the counterattack of the magic ball in Marin's tenacious save, he was full of energy, and then declined, and then exhausted.

In the end, Xiong Ke lost the third game 17:21, 15:21, and Ma Lin, like Kong Zhendong in the third round of the group stage, saved the Lingnan team as the third singles.

When everyone thinks of Kong Zhendong's brave performance in that game, they can't help but compare two talented teenagers of the same age.

After a comparison, everyone found that there are really so many similarities.

Although Kong Zhendong emerged a year earlier, Marin seems to be stronger in the method of turning ~ not forwarding the ball, the sharpness of defensive counterattacks, the skill of power and the improvement of strength.

With Marin's victory, a debate has spread from the national team coaching staff to all spectators about who is the strongest newcomer.
