Liu Guoliang once said frankly that the team consisting of Mima Ito, Miu Hirano, and Yoshizumi Ishikawa is the strongest women’s team in Japan’s history. The head coach of the National Table Tennis Women’s Team Li Shu also revealed that the progress made by Japanese players over the years has made He has been worried and frightened for the past five years, and he has spent the past five years in terror.
Encountering such an opponent on the road, the difficulty of winning can be imagined.
Therefore, when all the dust settles, there is a sense of relief that comes with joy.
For the Chinese table tennis team, this may be a familiar experience.
As early as in the various predictions before the Tokyo Olympics, this table tennis women's team gold medal has been counted in the pocket of the Chinese team by the outside world.
This is trust and pressure.
In front of the table tennis table, the Chinese team, which has never let the Olympic team lose its gold medal, has always played the role of defender.
During the Tokyo Olympic cycle, five years of painstaking practice.
For the undisputed national table tennis team, the focus of preparation is to eliminate all uncertainties as much as possible and set up plans for all unexpected situations in the game.
All the efforts made in the past five years need to be judged by the results of this game.
Its importance and the corresponding pressure are self-evident.

This is the final decisive battle that "everyone wants".
The overall level of the Chinese team and the Japanese team was significantly higher than that of other opponents. The promotion process also proved this point. The 6 games that the two teams participated in were all swept wins.
As Chen Meng said before the game, they had been looking forward to this game for a long time and finally reached the final with the Japanese team.
As the men's team has already been eliminated in the semifinals, for the Japanese table tennis team, which has been placed high hopes by the host, the women's team final is the last one that it has the possibility of winning gold.
Long before the finals began, the originally spacious press center was crowded with Japanese reporters.
For the result of this game, they and the Chinese fans have the same eager anticipation.
For the Japanese women's team eager to be upset, if you want to climb the mountain of national table tennis, the first doubles must not be missed.
If you can win first, not only will your morale be improved, but it will also affect your opponent's mentality.
Hirano Miu/Ishikawa Kasumi ranked first in the world, which is a relatively large point for the Japanese team to win.
The two broke up singles. Whether it was Miu Hirano who was short-lived in the Asian Championships four years ago, or Kasumi Ishikawa who was blocked from the top four in this Olympics, it is difficult for Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha, and Wang Manyu, who are ranked in the top four in the world. Get a bargain.
Yoshikawa Ishikawa scored the first point through a vigorous smash, showing the determination of the Japanese team.
At the beginning of the start, Ma Lin and other coaches in the stands frequently got up and applauded the Chinese team for scoring.
"In fact, before the game, I thought that the other party would play fiercely, but our response speed was slower." As Wang Manyu said, she and Chen Meng encountered a lot of difficulties in the game.
But after losing a game first, the two gradually calmed their minds and gradually found their own rhythm.

3:1.
After a reversal, the final almost lost its suspense.
In the subsequent singles match, facing Sun Yingsha's Ito Mima again, there were still not many ways; in front of Wang Manyu, Hirano Miu was also unable to withstand the changeable offensive.
"We have already played momentum in doubles, and we are fully prepared for singles." Wang Manyu said that in singles, she has entered a state of "selflessness" and has been enjoying the game.
Forcing the Chinese team's mentality to change, this is the only way for the Japanese team to win.
When the Chinese players have no distractions and devote themselves to the game, the result is doomed.
The female national table tennis player who has been studied by the world for another five years finally reached the top of the Olympics again with four 3:0.
When the national anthem was played and the national flag was raised, the girls said that all the efforts over the years were worth it.
Why is Guoping so hard to be defeated?
Li Xun replied that the championship comes from the belief in winning.
"Regardless of coaches or athletes, we always firmly believe that the glorious tradition and fine style of Chinese table tennis for decades must not be lost in our generation." (End)
