The reason why Chen Xingtong looked at his mobile phone**!She revealed the truth herself, while Liu Guoliang chose to remain silent, and fans called for her to be severely punished. After the WTT women's table tennis finals came to an end, the task of national table tennis came to an end. However, this finals suddenly focused people's attention on a national table tennis main force, she is Chen Xingtong. In the semi-final against Wang Yidi, Chen Xingtong was suspected of looking at his phone during the game, a move that sparked many fans' calls for Liu Guoliang and Ma Lin to be severely punished.
Although Chen Xingtong performed well in this finals, she swept Wang Manyu 3-0 in the 1 4 finals and successfully advanced to the top 4. However, in the semi-finals, her form had ups and downs, and she was suppressed by Wang Yidi almost the whole time, and finally lost to her opponent 1-4. The controversy came in the fifth game of the game, when Chen Xingtong led 5-2, and then was chased by Wang Yidi for two consecutive points, and Chen Xingtong was forced to call a timeout.
After she came to the sidelines and sat down, she actually picked up the mobile phone next to her and looked at it a few times, although the time was very short, it was broadcast live, allowing many fans to see this scene. After the game, Chen Xingtong was on the hot search because she looked at her mobile phone during the pause, and some extreme fans even thought that she was playing match-fixing, and looking at her mobile phone during the pause was to receive information from the outside world. Liu Guoliang, Ma Lin and the social ** of the World Table Tennis Federation, the organizer of the event, have all been attacked by extreme fans, who have demanded severe punishment of Chen Xingtong, and even asked for a ban.
In the face of doubts from the outside world, Chen Xingtong chose to respond by publishing a long article. Judging from her statement, the reason for looking at her phone is to remind herself of the technical points and precautions in the game, because there is no off-court guidance during the timeout. She also stressed that she did not receive any information and explained the incident to the team immediately after the game. It can be seen that the purpose of her looking at her mobile phone has nothing to do with match-fixing, mainly to focus on technical tactics.
Although the national table tennis coaching staff must have known about the incident, so far, no one including Liu Guoliang and Ma Lin has responded, and it is unknown whether Chen Xingtong will be punished. The ITTF stipulates that athletes and coaches are not allowed to use any electronic devices before and during competitions, so national table tennis players are also prohibited from using mobile phones during competitions. Chen Xingtong's public apology is likely due to his violation of this rule.
Although the national table tennis has not yet responded to this matter, we will have to wait for some time to know whether Chen Xingtong will be punished and the possible form of punishment. At present, Chen Xingtong has returned to China and plans to take a short break, and then will participate in the second phase of the table tennis Super League.
