Chapter 184 Li Ying won consecutive championships, Kuwait men's singles champion, Asian Championship men's team won seven consecutive championships

The evening of July 2.

Imperial capital, conference room at the training base.

at this time.

The conference table was filled with all kinds of food and drinks.

Li Ying, Liang Long and Kong Fengge got together.

Eat some snacks and drink some wine.

Watch the 2012 ITTF Qatar Open Men's Doubles Final.

Kong Fengge smiled and said, "Ma Ge and An Nian are the only pair of men's doubles players from Xia country. As the top seeds, they defeated their opponents without losing a single game."

Liang Long laughed and said, "But now in the final, my opponent is the men's doubles player from the Korean team. I feel like they are not easy to beat!"

The first game was very fiercely fought, and the Xia Guo combination narrowly won 11-9.

Li Ying smiled and said: "The process may be a little difficult, but when it comes to doubles, I still trust Brother Xu and Brother Ma more!"

随后高丽组合便以11-5、11-8连得两局，第4局马擎/徐归年以11-8拿下，并顺势以11-4取得第5局的胜利，第6局双方的较量进入白热化，关键时刻韩国组合把握机会，以12-10将大比分扳为3-3平。

In this case.

The men's doubles final has come to the crucial deciding game.

at this time.

In the conference room.

Looking at Ma Qing and Xu Guinian on the huge LCD screen, they couldn't help but become nervous.

But as the fight went on, Li Ying, Liang Long and Kong Fengge started drinking.

In the deciding game, Ma Qing/Xu Guinian did not give their opponents too many chances and won easily with 11-2.

In this case.

Ma Qing/Xu Guinian fought hard for 7 games to win the men's doubles championship.

After watching the game.

Then they went back to their rooms to rest.

As for the men's singles final in the early morning.

Li Ying did not choose to stay up late.

Anyway.

You will know the result the next day.

2 month 12 day.

When I wake up in the morning and have breakfast.

Li Ying couldn't help but ask Chen Daqian: "Brother Qian, did you watch the men's singles final last night? How was the match?"

Li Ying knew that Chen Daqian would definitely watch it.

because.

Xu Guinian is a member of the Magic City team.

and.

In the national team, in addition to Li Ying, Chen Daqian paid special attention to the development of Xu Guinian.

even.

During this period, Xu Guinian wanted to replace the head coach from Qin Yucheng to Chen Daqian.

but.

Chen Daqian’s current task is to assist Li Ying in reaching the top of the London Olympics.

and so.

It is impossible for Chen Daqian to have the spare energy to guide Xu Guinian.

After hearing this, Chen Daqian became excited.

“蒙里和徐归年分列本次比赛第1、2号种子，稍早时候结束的半决赛中，徐归年与马擎苦战7局将其淘汰，比分为11-7、11-9、5-11、11-9、8-11、9-11、11-6。”

"The final was full of twists and turns. Xu Guinian got into the game quickly at the start and won the first game 11-7. Then Mengli won the next three games 11-7, 11-9 and 11-4, taking a 3-3 lead. However, Xu Guinian held his ground and won the fifth game 1-5 in a very fierce competition. He then won the sixth game 12-10 to tie the game 11-5. In the deciding game, Xu Guinian was even better and won the game 6-3, winning his first championship title of the season."

After listening to this, Li Ying laughed and said, "If that's the case, then Mengge's championship drought has continued for nearly a year!"

Chen Daqian nodded slightly.

Right now.

The men's team head coach Dong Yaobang appeared in front of Chen Daqian and Li Ying.

Seeing the men's team head coach Dong Yaobang coming, Chen Daqian and Li Ying stood up subconsciously.

The head coach of the men's team, Dong Yaobang, said with a smile, "Aying, I want you here today because of something."

"The 2012 ITTF Kuwait Open will be held from February 2 to 14, but our five men's table tennis players Mengli, Mama Qing, Kong Fengge, Liang Long and Xu Guinian will collectively withdraw from the competition. They will prepare for the Asian Championships and the Dortmund World Table Tennis Championships!"

"So, I think I'll send you to this open tournament."

Li Ying smiled and said, "Sure, the Kuwait Open is the fourth open tournament of this season. I didn't participate in the first three open tournaments, so I can go this time!"

"Then I'll follow Aying!" Chen Daqian said with a smile.

"You will set off today. Moreover, the national table tennis team will go to Pengcheng for closed training today to prepare for the Asian Championships to be held in Haojiang on the 23rd of this month and the World Table Tennis Championships in Dortmund on March 3th."

Immediately.

The Xiaguo national table tennis team officially announced it.

The five tigers of the men's table tennis team withdrew from the Kuwait Open.

but.

At the same time, the Xiaguo national table tennis team submitted Li Ying's list of participants to the International Table Tennis Federation.

In this case.

Li Ying competed alone in the men's singles, representing the Xiaguo national table tennis team.

at this time.

Many European table tennis superstars originally planned not to participate in the Kuwait Open.

but.

After hearing that Li Ying was participating in the competition.

Change your mind immediately and must participate!
On the contrary, table tennis players Gao Li and Ryu Ying will focus on their preparations for the 20th Asian Championships and will not participate in the Kuwait Open.

After winning the championship, Li Ying and Chen Daqian flew directly to Hong Kong without stopping.

then.

After landing in Hong Kong, we went to Shenzhen to join up with the national table tennis team.

The Asian Table Tennis Confederation announced the registration list of each team for the Asian Championships in Macau on February 2. The five main players of the men's team, Li Ying, Meng Li, Kong Fengge, Liang Long and Xu Guinian are all on the list.

The list of the Asian Table Tennis Federation shows that the five tigers of Xia Guo participating in the men's team competition are Li Ying, Meng Li, Kong Fengge, Liang Long and Xu Guinian. They also participated in the men's singles competition. The men's doubles pairings are Meng Li/Xu Guinian and Kong Fengge/Liang Long.

In the mixed doubles event, it is Li Ying/Wang Xianlan, Xu Guinian/Xu Mingyue.

On February 2, the Asian Table Tennis Championships in Haojing held the draw for the men's and women's teams. Both the men's and women's teams of Xiaguo were the top seeds and directly advanced to the quarterfinals.

And this time.

Li Ying leads the main force of the national table tennis team and is attending an event at the Haojing Youth Table Tennis School.

The 2th Asian Championships, authorized by the Asian Table Tennis Confederation and co-organized by the Sports Development Bureau of the Macau Special Administrative Region Government and the Macau Table Tennis Association, will be held at the Macau East Asian Games Stadium from February 23 to March 3.

2 month 25 day.

In the men's team semi-finals of the 20th Asian Table Tennis Championships.

Li Ying didn't even appear on the stage.

He always sat with the men's team head coach Dong Yaobang.

The Xia Guo team, represented by Kong Fengge, Liang Long and Meng Li, defeated the Xia Guo Baodao team, which was represented by all its main players, 3-0.

Tomorrow we will compete with the Ryuo team for the championship.

In the first match of this Asian Championship, the Xia national team sent out the 'Dragon, Phoenix and Turtle' combination of Liang Long, Kong Fengge and Xu Guinian.

The second match today saw the replacement of the lineup with a veteran player, Monri. So far, all five members of the men's group except Li Ying have made their debut.

After the game.

The men's team head coach Dong Yaobang went to be interviewed.

Li Ying greeted his teammates who were leaving the court.

"You guys are awesome. It would be great if you could take me flying. I have to say, it feels great to win without any effort!" Li Ying said with a smile.

Hearing Li Ying's shameless words, Liang Long, Kong Fengge, Meng Li and Xu Guinian were all speechless.

"The venue for this competition is much larger than the closed training hall, so we focused on adaptability in the first two games and let every player adapt to the game." In an interview after the game, the men's team head coach Dong Yaobang said, "The most important thing is tomorrow's final. The Ryu-Okura team has a relatively neat lineup, and it is also the Olympic lineup. This time we also came with an Olympic lineup, which I think is a good test for both the Olympics and the World Championships. Tomorrow night's game is the real test for the players."

"Coach Dong, in the men's team final, will Li Ying, the current captain of the Xiaguo men's table tennis team and the world's number one, play?" another reporter asked.

"Li Ying is the mainstay of our Xiaguo national table tennis team. He will definitely play in the final," said Dong Yaobang, head coach of the men's team, with certainty.

because.

This is the men's team final of the Asian Championships.

Even if the men's team head coach Dong Yaobang wanted to train his players again, he could not let Liuying take away the team championship of the 20th Asian Table Tennis Championships on the land of Xiaguo National Table Tennis Team.

if that's the case.

This is undoubtedly a slap in the face to the Xia national table tennis team.

and.

In the heart of Dong Yaobang, the head coach of the men's team.

In the final, he had already figured out how to deploy his troops.

You just send out Li Ying, Kong Fengge and Liang Long.

In this case.

Sending out this trident will surely sweep the Ryuo team.

But now.

The Ryuo team should not be underestimated either.

Tomoaki Furukawa and Atsushi Naganuma have both grown up completely.

at this time.

Liang Long, Kong Fengge and the others went to rest.

But Li Ying did not go to rest.

The 20th Asian Table Tennis Championships will decide the women's team champion.

The opponent of the Xia women's table tennis team is the women's team from Singapore, which defeated the Xia women's team in the final of the Moscow World Table Tennis Championships two years ago.

This is the team competition that Wang Xianlan faces as she becomes the leader of the women's table tennis team.

Li Ying was worried.

I came here specially to watch the game, hoping to cheer for Wang Xianlan.

in the final.

Representing the Xia national team were Wang Xianlan, Qiao Yuning and Ji Chuanxia.

首盘出战的是王仙兰，面对对方第一主力，她以11-8、12-10、11-6直落三局取胜。

次盘上场的是乔玉宁，乔玉宁以3-1取胜，比分为11-4、4-11、11-3、13-11。

第3盘季传霞非常遗憾以2-3(11-7、11-6、8-11、5-11、8-11)负于对手。

第4盘是王仙兰再次上场，以3-1(11-3、12-10、5-11、11-9)击败对方第一主力，帮助夏国队获得冠军。

In this case.

In the team final, Wang Xianlan scored two points.

This is the third consecutive championship for the women's team in the Asian Championships.

After watching the game, Li Ying went to bed contentedly.

September 2, 26pm.

The men's team final of the 20th Asian Table Tennis Championships has begun.

The men's team head coach Dong Yaobang fielded a full main lineup of Li Ying, Kong Fengge and Liang Long.

The strategy that the Ryuo National Table Tennis Team has prepared for this is Niwa Shokiri, Naganuma Atsushi, and Furukawa Tomoaki.

In other words.

The Ryuying Kingdom deliberately avoided Li Ying's strongest point.

Instead, he chose to let Tomoaki Furukawa and Atsushi Naganuma find ways to defeat Liang Long and Kong Fengge in order to score points.

The first set of the game.

Li Ying VS Niwa Shoki!

With Li Ying's strength, it was naturally easy.

then.

All the hopes of the Ryuo team rest on Atsushi Naganuma and Tomoaki Furukawa.

but.

This is a table tennis competition held in Xia Country.

and.

Kong Fengge and Liang Long are in extremely hot form right now.

Don't give the Ryuo team any chance at all.

finally.

The Xiaguo men's table tennis team, represented by Li Ying, Kong Fengge and Liang Long, defeated Ryuying 3-0 and won their seventh consecutive championship.

Post-match interview.

Dong Yaobang, the head coach of the men's team, said with a smile: "Both sides played at a high level in this match. We were a little nervous in the first two matches. Especially in the second set between Kong Fengge and Naganuma, it looked like 2-3, but each game was two points, which was very intense. Both players played well. We won the championship as we wished. Through this match, especially today's final, we also achieved the purpose of training. The athletes found the feeling of the game and increased their confidence. I hope that we can achieve the goal of warming up for the World Table Tennis Championships through the Asian Championships."

"I hope to get some training through this competition, so Kong Fengge played the first set in the previous game. Liang Long had a harder time against Furukawa Tomoaki, so I deliberately let Liang Long play against Furukawa Tomoaki again, because he was not comfortable playing against Furukawa Tomoaki. Through these competitions, especially before the World Table Tennis Championships and the Olympics, I can play against my main opponents, so that I can have a better understanding.

"Ma Long played the third set. Liang Long lost the third set two years ago, so let him find the feeling of playing the third set again, because after all, the World Table Tennis Championships are coming soon, and our goals are also the World Table Tennis Championships and the Olympics."

"We have sent out our strongest team this time and we take it very seriously. We hope to not miss any game in this Olympic year, especially our major Asian rivals. We will go all out to win."

And this time.

Countries around the world who are aspiring to win the Olympic table tennis team championship are all studying the new Xia China national table tennis lineup of Li Ying, Kong Fengge and Liang Long.

Because if nothing unexpected happens.

London Olympics.

This is the lineup that the Xiaguo national table tennis team will use in the Olympic team competition.

If you play singles.

It’s Li Ying and Meng Li!
However, for the team competition, I'm afraid it will be this lineup that looks very luxurious and terrifying.
