However, before indulging in this intoxication, looking back at the game picture of this Sino-Japanese war, perhaps many sober people will feel afraid, will be covered in cold sweat, and will have deep anxiety when they dream back at midnight - yes, we won the present, but the Japanese team seems to have won the future!
Youth is the scenery of one person, and the youth of a group of people is a storm! The Japanese men's team (including the women's team) has officially launched a millennial lineup of all post-00s since the Busan World Table Tennis Championships and stepped onto the stage of the World Series. And this is not a competition training strategy that completely sacrifices performance, Japanese table tennis has now really released a group of wolf warriors with sharp claws!
Everybody saw it: The 16-year-old was undaunted by world No. 1 Fan Zhendong, and despite the loss, he was able to not only snatch a bout from the World Champion, but also fight Fan Zhendong for a long time.
Komatsushima's high-flammability state is unparalleled in terms of technology, framework, strain, and psychology. We have to admit that Fan Zhendong's victory this time is only based on the thickness of time accumulation. However, this advantage is bound to be transferred to the heads of the younger generation on the opposite side with lightning speed over time.
We also witnessed 20-year-old Shinozuka Daito push Captain Marron, known as a hexagonal warrior, to the edge of a cliff. What's even more worrying is that he maintained a poker face throughout the game, no matter whether he scored or lost, no matter whether he was in good times or bad, he was not shocked, like a calm lake, and this indifference was simply shocking. This indifference, which is extremely incommensurate with his young body, shows the unusually strong psychological qualities he possesses in the game of table tennis.
As for Zhang Ben Zhihe, needless to say, he was once again defeated by Wang Chuqin and could not overcome the strength of his opponent. However, he still managed to win the first game from Wang Chuqin, and he was by no means a person who sat back and waited to be killed. In addition, he will always be three years younger than Wang Chuqin, which is an inescapable fact, even if he buries his head in the sand like an ostrich. How many years can Wang Chuqin suppress Zhang Benzhihe?
Tomokazu Haramoto, Teru Matsushima, and Daito Shinozuka demonstrated a powerful backhand system of speedy play against China, and even in other matches at this tournament. Industry insiders have praised it as "the most advanced in the world".
A few years ago, when Tomokazu Zhang was just beginning to emerge, he used this tactical system to break through the rivers and lakes. However, he faced a huge shortcoming at that time, that is, the obvious lack of COSCO capabilities. After studying Zhang Benzhihe for the first time, everyone found that as long as the offensive and defensive lines were lengthened and forced to retreat from the nearby Taiwan area, he could quickly lose power.
Today, however, Moto and its team have made up for this weakness. In the duel with the Chinese team, Teruku Matsushima, Tomokazu Zhangmoto and Daito Shinozuka repeatedly fought fiercely in the COSCO area and scored strong points. Even more remarkablely, they were even able to unleash high-quality long-range backhand pulls, with each player playing amazing magic with this technique.
This change makes the whole game even deeper. Their backhand skills have expanded from quickly attacking the platform to the close connection of the whole Taiwan without dead ends. For the degree of technological sophistication? Is it high-end? These are undoubtedly questions that require our own judgment.
The victory of the Chinese team in the Sino-Japanese war was enough to convince the Japanese team. However, is this really an accurate comparison of the complete strength of the two teams?
If the Japanese team adjusts the order of appearance, and let Tomokazu Zhang face Fan Zhendong or Ma Long, and at the same time let Matsushima Teruma or Shinozuka Daito face Wang Chuqin, is it possible to cause a loss in the national table tennis in one or two matches?
If Japan's No. 2 main team, Hayasuke Togami, is in good form and can compete normally, is it possible for them to win one or two victories from the national table tennis team?
In short, if the two teams play a round-robin match, who can ensure that the national table tennis can still maintain its undefeated dominance?
Be prepared for danger in times of peace, this ancient adage profoundly teaches us that even if our lives are stable, we must always be alert to possible crises. This awareness is not just a momentary strain, but an ongoing guiding philosophy that ensures our growth and development.
The average age of the main players of the national table tennis team has reached 29 years old, a number that silently reminds us of the passage of time. In stark contrast, there are almost few young players under the age of 20, only Lin Shidong. Such a situation makes people worry, when the current national table tennis main force retires, who will we rely on to compete with the Japanese team?
The Japanese table tennis team is no longer a testing ground for the national table tennis development plan. Through their own efforts and unique ideas, they have created their own table tennis culture and shaped their own spiritual totem. If the national table tennis cannot make effective adjustments and changes in time, I am afraid that it will pay a heavy price soon.
At present, the national table tennis is struggling on the road to defending the World Table Tennis Championships, and the dawn of victory seems to be close at hand. It may be a bit inappropriate to ask these questions at this juncture, but what is a little wakefulness now, rather than preparing for future setbacks due to negligence? The fact that decision-makers can quickly wake up and keep a clear head is the real luck of national table tennis.
