At seven o'clock in the evening, the final round of the team tryouts is about to begin. Now the situation has gradually become clear, Marin/Chen Qi won both games, has advanced in advance, and has qualified for the Greek Open; The Olympic duo of Wang Liqin and Yan Sen surprisingly lost both fights and have already withdrawn from the competition early. Only two pairs of Ye Hao/Ma Long and Kong Linghui/Wang Hao, both with one win and one loss, are left to compete for the last spot.

The match in the evening is Ye Hao/Ma Long VS Kong Linghui/Wang Hao, which combination can win the match, they can go to Athens to represent the national table tennis men's team in the men's doubles match of the Greek Open.

"To be honest, Ye Hao/Ma Long's ability to defeat Wang Liqin/Yan Sen has already surprised me, I wonder if they can continue to bring surprises?" Liu Guoliang said with Xiao Zhan, who was standing beside him.

"Let's wait and see, after all, Kong Linghui and Wang Hao's strength is very strong, and the combination of one old and one young, and one horizontal is also very reasonable, and this game is interesting."

In the first game of the game, Kong Linghui let the two little devils on the opposite side see the style of a Grand Slam winner. In the second ball, he continued to volley with his forehand, steady and ruthless, and one person killed the two opposite sides to lose their armor; In the fifth ball, he took the initiative to boldly change the line when he formed a stalemate on the field, sneaked into the straight line on the left side, and successfully scored in one fell swoop. In this way, under the active drive of Kong Linghui, Ye Hao/Ma Long were restricted in the first game, 3:6, 6:9, and finally lost the first game 7:11.

Ye Hao, who returned to the sidelines, discussed countermeasures, and after some discussion, they decided to take three moves to change the situation. The first move is dragging, according to the judgment of the two, it is extremely difficult to win this game, only patience, game by game, must be ready to play five rounds. The second trick is to change, since it is not advantageous in strength, then if it is weak, it will change, and if it changes, it will change first, and take the lead. The third move is ruthless, just by dragging, steady, it seems too passive, since the initiative to change, then change with ruthlessness, suddenly kill a board, fight a ball, you can become a sword of Damocles hanging over the opponent's head, always threatening the opponent.

Ye Hao/Ma Long, who has the command of tactical thinking, has changed abruptly on the field, with both the style of a steady and steady general, and the vanguard fighting spirit of daring to fight. The quick adjustment not only allowed the two to take the lead in the second game, but also made the coaches who played on the sidelines evaluate the two to a higher level.

"Well, these two young athletes have very lively minds, change very quickly and quickly find ways to deal with falling behind. It seems that Guoliang didn't let them participate in the selection on a whim, and I also blamed him, thinking that he was eccentric to Ye Hao. One coach thought to himself.

But the coach didn't know that Liu Guoliang at this time was also pleasantly surprised, and he didn't expect that the combination he originally thought was a combination of numbers, but now he is playing well, and he really has no intention of inserting willows into the willows.

Soon the second game was won by Ye Hao and Ma Long, and the score was 11:8. However, in the third game, Kong Linghui and Wang Hao once again gave the two of them a dismount, showing their ambition to win this game. At 11:6, Kong Linggray/Wang Hao rewrote the total score to 2:1 again, and they only need to win one more game to qualify.

Ye Hao/Ma Long, who were facing a desperate situation, did not panic, they continued to use the tactics since the second game, entangled with their opponents, won by one point, and were down-to-earth and unhurried. Relying on patience and perseverance, Ye Hao and the two fell behind several times in the fourth game, but they both turned defeat into victory and overtook the score. In the end, Ye Hao/Ma Long won the fourth game 11:9 with persistence and tied the score again.

fell behind twice and tied twice, which boosted Ye Hao/Ma Long's confidence and morale, on the contrary, Kong Linghui and Wang Hao, who were about to win the game, gradually became anxious.

At the beginning of the fifth game, the Kong Linghui/Wang Hao combination launched a fierce offensive, hoping to gain enough advantages at the beginning. Their slightly urgent tactics really worked, because at this time, Ma Long's hand was a little cold, and he missed a few balls needlessly. The score became 7:3, Ye Hao and Ma Long fell behind by four points in the deciding game, and the situation became grim.

"It's okay, relax and play, don't be afraid of mistakes. And me, we're a team! Ye Hao encouraged Ma Long, the more backward he is, the more he must not be conservative, and he must be bold to fight.

Then Ye Hao fought boldly several times, and gradually narrowed the score gap, 6:7. At this time, Ma Long's feel and confidence gradually recovered, and the cooperation between the two became like a fish in water again. Kong Linghui and Wang Hao gradually lost their score advantage and became impatient again.

Wang Hao failed to grab a backhand, and the table tennis ball fell into the net and lost points!

Kong Linghui smashed his forehand vigorously, and the ball flew out of the table and lost points!

……

The score changed from 6:7 to 7:7, and then to 8:7, 9:7, Ye Hao/Ma Long overtook the score. Until 10:8, the match point is in hand, and at this moment there is only one step away from the final victory.

"Steady!"

"Don't worry!"

Ye Hao and Ma Long cheered each other up, this point is very important, and this point is the key to the start of the doubles road of the two. Ma Long served and sneaked a long ball against Kong Lingshen. Kong Linghui hurriedly returned the ball, Ye Hao followed up with a board to grab the ball, Wang Hao reluctantly received the ball, and Ma Long, who followed again, made a sideways forehand and became a fatal blow.

At 11:8, Ye Hao/Ma Long won the fifth game, winning with a total score of 3:2, and the men's doubles qualification for the Greek Open was in hand!

Unexpectedly, the two of them really won Kong Linghui/Wang Hao and grabbed the qualification, which is what many people in the national table tennis men's team think.

The other match in the evening had already ended, and Ma Lin/Chen Qi and Wang Liqin/Yan Sen were also standing on the sidelines at this time, and they all showed surprised expressions when they saw that the final winner turned out to be Ye Hao/Ma Long. Especially the two Marins, who won the first game of the morning easily, but they struggled to deal with Kong and Wang. I thought that I would play in the Greek Open with Kong and Wang, but I didn't expect that someone else would join hands with me in the end.

After winning the game, the most excited person was not Ye Hao, but Ma Long. As a newcomer to the first team, he was thrilled to have the opportunity to compete at a high level with the team so soon. Ye Hao, as a "person who came over", calmly looked at Ma Long who was dancing next to him.

More than a week later, before the Spring Festival holiday ended, the Chinese table tennis team rushed to Athens, Greece, to prepare to participate in the Greek Open held here on the 28th.
