1. Chen Meng likes to play with brute force, but she is not as clever as Sasha in chopping. The semi-final of the just-concluded Women's World Cup will be very different. Ito and Sun Yingsha are both skilled athletes, and their placement, rhythm and weight changes are very dexterous. For Han Ying's chop, it can be eliminated in minutes, and there is no need to entangle the seventh game like Chen Meng. Chen Meng's advantage in the big ball era is strength, but cutting the ball is like "candy". The harder you pull, the more you spin, and the harder it is for you to attack the ball.
In addition, there are changes in chopping, turning and not turning. It seems to be cut in one action. In fact, the rotation changes here will be very large. If the chop ball doesn't turn well, if Chen Meng still tries to pull back, the ball will easily go out of bounds. Ito's backhand is raw rubber and he doesn't eat much spin. Sasha's forehand ball is very wrapped and scattered, so it is difficult to keep up with the rhythm and borrow money. Therefore, the chopping style prefers Chen Meng's brute force attack.
For fast players, this is the contrast between speed and speed. In this style of play, Ito is very adapted to the rhythm of Liu He. She won two consecutive victories against Liu and five wins 1 losses in the match against Liu, but she was the first to win the match point twice. As far as the speed of approaching stage is concerned, Ito's backhand and forehand are the fastest in women's table tennis today. However, she is afraid of Chen Meng's high-quality anti-pull in Taiwan Province.
Chen Mengzhi was able to win four consecutive victories against Ito because she didn't compete with Ito for speed near the stage, but reduced the pressure of speed near the stage after retiring for half a step, and chose to spin high-quality backhand in COSCO. This quality loop ball made Ito very uncomfortable, and he often made mistakes because the opponent's quality was too high. Like Ito, two men approached Taiwan Province with "daggers" and wanted to fight hand-to-hand with Chen Meng.
However, after Chen Meng left Taiwan Province, Ito failed to "stab" his opponent, but was pulled by Chen Mengqiang's cosco Taiwan Province curling ball. This situation is similar to that of Zhang Benzhihe, who was beaten by Xu Xin near Taiwan Province. Speed-oriented fast break, because after the ball flies a certain distance, it doesn't feel oppressive when it reaches COSCO Taiwan, so it doesn't pose much threat to those who are at loggerheads in COSCO Taiwan.
It's not a question of fear, but it's an honor and an encounter to compete with top players in China in table tennis. Why do you say that?
Honor means that from the group stage to the final, you have to go through five levels and cut six generals. How difficult it is. Isn't it an honor to play against the champion? For example, Han Ying, a German chopper, won the honor in the Women's World Cup.
Encounter means you want to win the championship, and it's hard to beat players like Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha. No one wants this experience, including a master like Miki Ito.
However, if you want to improve your skills, you must compete with the master to achieve it. The technical improvement of Japanese women's table tennis in recent years, in a sense, is also "forced" by the China team.
Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha are the main players of the national women's table tennis team and enjoy the same reputation in the world. Foreign cooperation players are proud to be able to compete with China players. Except for a few who want to win a game and a half, outsourcing players are not only afraid of Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha, but also afraid of other China players. I hope to see the players from China later in the competition.
Generally speaking, the main players of China women's table tennis and foreign players are a little scared and feel "unlucky" when they meet. Especially for Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha and Manyu Wang. As for which I am more afraid of, these are two words. Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha play differently, but their winning percentage against Ito is very high. I'm afraid they don't want to meet too early, just like Sun Yingsha was eliminated by 4: 1 when she met too early in the World Championships. If the opponent is someone else, even Liu, who won the championship later, she will not be afraid. As for Ito who is more afraid of Chen Meng or Sun Yingsha, I'm afraid it's Sun Yingsha. Sun Yingsha was defeated 3-0 at the beginning of the World Cup. If it weren't for Sun Yingsha's skin and bones, she was bitten by Ito at 9: 7 and swept 4: 0 in the fourth inning. Chen Meng won her victory, but the process was thrilling enough. Both of them have an advantage over Yi Tengyou, and they are neck and neck.
However, if it was Han Ying, she wouldn't lose Chen Meng's dream. This World Cup proved that Han Ying and Chen Meng were inseparable, and they didn't know until the deciding game. When touching Ito, Han Ying divided by three times five and was quickly defeated. Ito and Chen Meng have different views on the chopping technique. Sun Yingsha's chop is also smooth and unambiguous. The finals came, Han Ying left, and the more powerful Japanese kitchen knife Sato Pupil came. She won two games in Ding Ning, which was also a test for Chen Meng. In a word, Chen Meng's chop must pass, otherwise it will be a "time bomb" for her at the Olympic Games. Let's practice hard. Fortunately, there is still time. It's not too late. Sun Yingsha's playing style is called Violent Sally. When he plays fluently, he has all kinds of balls, but when he is not fluent, his mistakes will increase. The World Cup final exposed Sun Yingsha's shortcomings. She has a well-thought-out plan and has many ways to deal with chopping and particle bombs. Chopping is as pleasing to the eye as a textbook. Playing Ishikawa Kasumi's fastball is even more handy. It's a sweep. Ito's strange plays are also in good order. Breaking Iraq's serve, forehand attack is his killer. Both she and Manyu Wang play masculine, and the left and right bows, especially forehand, represent the trend of women's table tennis today. In terms of stability and firmness, the word "stable" is a bit short and often makes mistakes, which needs to be taken seriously. This basic skill needs to be strengthened.
The main problem is that Sun Yingsha and Manyu Wang are not dominant in the traditional loop ball and the offensive and defensive balance of forehand and backhand in women's table tennis, so they stumble. Manyu Wang versus Chen Meng, losing more and winning less, is out of proportion. Sun Yingsha also played a game with Chen Meng for a while, which is a bit like a vengeance; Zhu Yuling is not easy either. Didn't you lose recently? Some people say that Sun Yingsha plays too hard and even longs for success, but this is not the case. But Sun Yingsha and Manyu Wang didn't fully understand the traditional single-player ball game. To be honest, they are afraid of the play. Liu, on the other hand, had a good command of this style when he was a teenager. In the final of the 20 19 World Championships, Liu defeated, not only winning, but also letting the score of 1 1: 0 show that everything has its vanquisher. Table tennis players really have a way of playing, just like two kings and one horse in those days. No matter how hard they practice, the result is still the same. Do you find it strange? In this way, Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha are both powerful figures, and they are put on the stage of women's table tennis. Plus Ito, the top three in the world, other players are of course afraid that whoever meets first will be unlucky. In the process of reaching the summit, these three people will not meet until the end unless they are upset.
In recent years, with the participation of Manyu Wang, Zheng Yijing, Ishikawa Kasumi and Wang Yidi, women's table tennis will be their world, enter the dragon. They are still young, they still have to fight, and it is inevitable that they will win or lose. As for who can take the lead and produce a Zhang Yining-style "big devil", it's hard to say. Is it Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha or Ito? Let's wait and see in front of the TV. I think I'm more afraid of Sasha. In this women's world cup, Sasha swept the Japanese women's table tennis two-yuan general and made great contributions to the national table tennis championship.
This question is very interesting.
Where does this start?
The best way is to interview ten foreign players one by one, and then you will have first-hand real information, haha!
If you have to make such a choice, then choose Chen Meng.
In fact, these two men have never won 100% of foreign players in the past two years. Chen Meng lost to Ishikawa Kasumi and Feng Tianwei in last year's Open, and Sun Yingsha also lost to Ito Mikei. However, in terms of current performance, Chen Meng is better than Sun Yingsha. In 2020, he won the German Open and Qatar Open, and recently won the all-around championship and the World Cup, which can be described as the heyday. After all, Chen Meng is six years older than Sun Yingsha. These six years have not been in vain. How many more games to play, how many more games to play. The strength of Chen Meng, a late bloomer, is really the thickest now.
Chen Meng said the year before last that ordinary foreign players can't beat her at all. This sentence means the thickness of strength. In today's table tennis world, few people can really compare with the thickness of Chen Meng. The positive and negative gestures are heavy and full of rotation. Although the speed is not the fastest (compared with Liu, Ito Meicheng, etc. ), table tennis is not the fastest, and the quality of a single board is a combination of speed, rotation, strength, arc and so on.
At this point, the East China Sea in Sun Ying is called Violent Sally. Both forehand and backhand are violent enough, but compared with Chen Meng, it's still a bit overwhelming. So recently Sun Yingsha also began to pay attention to practicing strength. I personally wrote an article, hoping that Sun Yingsha can gain muscle. Muscle gain is not weight gain, but muscle strength. It depends on scientific training. Chen Meng is known as Chen Er Hammer, and her strength is very strong among female players.
In fact, for foreign players, whether they are afraid of Chen Meng or Sun Yingsha, I chose Chen Meng, which is based on strength. However, some people may prefer to hit Chen Meng rather than Sun Yingsha, because Sun Yingsha's rhythm is very agile and her psychological quality is very stable, so it is difficult to hit.
Let's just say so much, a family statement.
I think foreign players will feel scared when they meet Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng.
Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng have different styles and personalities, but their strength is similar. Sun Yingsha is a little tougher, and Chen Meng is a little more peaceful. Sun Yingsha's skills and tactics are more flexible, while Chen Meng's skills and tactics are relatively simple.
In the past two years, Chen Meng has lost more foreign wars. 20 19, lost to Tian, Feng Tianwei, and only lost to Ito Meicheng once. If such a comparison is made, it is obvious that Sun Yingsha performs better in foreign wars, and foreign players are more afraid of Sun Yingsha.
Of course, Chen Meng has made great progress this year, so she should not lose the foreign war. Her ranking No.1 in the world also proves that she is the best player in women's table tennis today. Any player who meets Chen Meng has almost no hope of winning.
China has Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng. They are not afraid of any opponents. They are also very likely to participate in the singles competition of the Tokyo Olympic Games. They will be China's double insurance to ensure the success of the Tokyo Olympic Games.
Sun Yingsha is more impactful and explosive, while Chen Meng is more heavy and steady. It is a nightmare for foreign players to meet these two people. Except for Mikei Ito, the strength of other foreign players is far behind Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha. Winning is accidental, losing is inevitable!
What do you think in the comments section?
The improper appellation of players other than China table tennis team is not entirely because foreigners corrected a small mistake first: the appellation of "foreign players" is inappropriate.
The so-called foreign players should refer to all active female table tennis players except China, but the players from Hongkong, China, Taiwan Province Province, China and Macau, China are not foreign players.
In fact, ITTF members are not all countries, but some are Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. Players outside ITTF should not be called "foreign players" in general.
The correct name should be "outsourcing player"
You can call Zhang Benzhihe representing Japan, Tian representing South Korea and Han Ying representing Germany foreigners, because they have joined the nationalities of other countries, but you must never call Ting and Du in Hong Kong and Zheng Yijing and He in Taiwan Province foreigners.
Nevertheless, for the convenience of writing, I will use the name "foreign player" as "foreign player" later.
It's not that "foreign players" are more afraid, but that "foreign players" who are afraid of Sun and Chen don't refer to one person, but to a group of people. We can divide this group of people into four categories: ① people who are more afraid of Sun Yingsha; (2) more afraid of Chen Meng; (3) Both are afraid; (4) Neither of them is afraid.
As foreign players are not alone, it is difficult to generalize: Are they more afraid of Sun Yingsha or Chen Meng?
The accurate expression should be: Are the outsourcing players more afraid of Sun Yingsha or Chen Meng?
Obviously, this is a statistical question, and the answer is not here.
Psychological factors cannot beat opponents one by one. Some people are afraid of competitive sports, which mainly includes two levels: one is technical level, and the other is psychological level.
Fear of not being afraid, more afraid of Sun or more afraid of Chen, also includes two aspects: first, technical and tactical ability, can't beat them; One is psychological quality. Are you afraid of them?
Generally speaking, people are usually afraid of powerful opponents.
Zhang Yining once said smugly: As soon as you shake hands before the game, you will know that the other side has lost.
The big devil is really terrible!
But whether you can fight or not and whether you are afraid of your opponent are two different things. In the face of repeated defeats, some people will be timid before the war, while others are more frustrated and fearless like newborn calves.
Miki Ito belongs to this kind of person. She won less for Sun Yingsha and lost more for Chen Meng. In principle, she should be afraid of these two people, especially Chen Meng, but she is naturally strong and confident. Every time she loses, she always thinks that she hasn't played her full level. She is not afraid of Sun Yingsha or Chen Meng. Actually, Ito is not afraid of anyone. She thinks she can beat any opponent.
Perhaps what is even more frightening is not NO: 1, but Chen Meng, a player with similar football style, who ranks higher than Sun Yingsha and has a better record than Sun Yingsha. Are all "foreign" players more afraid of Chen Meng? Not exactly.
Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha and Ito Mikei are the first, second and third places in the new World Cup, and Han Ying is the fourth. Chen, Sun and Yi are all top players in active service. Han Ying (including Japan's Sato protege) is the most powerful chopper in active service, and her strength is far behind that of Chen, Sun and Sun.
In the semi-final of the World Cup, Chen Meng defeated Han Ying in seven sets, while Ito defeated Han Ying 4-0 in the bronze medal match. Is Ito better than Chen Meng? Of course not. Ito hasn't beaten Chen Meng yet. You can say that Ito is better at chopping than Chen Meng, and perhaps Ito's play is more accurate than chopping.
Chen Meng is mainly a two-faced player, while Ito is good at hitting and changing balls. Relatively speaking, kitchen knives are not so afraid of rotation, but more afraid of changes in speed and landing rhythm. Therefore, Han Ying is more comfortable playing Chen Meng, and the more she plays, the more confident she is, but she is very uncomfortable with Ito, so she can't play.
Ding Ning, who is similar to Chen Meng, has been struggling to cut the ball. Last year, she lost 2-4 to Japanese Sato Pupil, but Sato Pupil, who eliminated Ding Ning, met Miki It? and had to bow her head.
Although Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng play roughly the same way, Sun Yingsha relies more on speed than rotation, so Sun Yingsha, like Ito, also cuts the ball.
Han Ying and Sato's protege are more afraid of Ito and Sun Yingsha than Chen Meng, not because Ito and Sun Yingsha are stronger than Chen Mengqiang, but because their playing styles are more impressive.
There are many examples of similar ball styles, and I don't need to repeat them one by one.
This problem needs to be viewed from many aspects.
Foreign players are also varied, including attacking, defending, chopping, forehand and backhand. Every foreign athlete has his own characteristics and cannot be generalized.
Sun Yingsha is characterized by balance on both sides, strong forehand lethality, large movement range and masculine play.
Chen Meng belongs to the traditional women's style of play, with good backhand, very strong backhand loop, slightly weak forehand and good rhythm control.
Foreign athletes are more afraid of Sun Yingsha when they compete with China athletes, especially the Japanese speed style.
Like Hirano Miwoo and Ishikawa Kasumi, they have almost no strength. They play with fast break. When they meet Sun Yingsha's high-quality loop ball on both sides, they can't play their own speed near the stage, and it will be very painful for Sun Yingsha to be rushed from both sides of the middle stage.
European athletes are more afraid of Chen Meng. Especially for European players who play bilateral curveball, Chen Meng's backhand power is very strong. Once matched with backhand, European athletes are not fast, and their strength is not as good as that of Chen Meng, so they can't directly exert their strength.
The typical game is the 2020 World Cup. When Shokos faced Chen Meng, he couldn't find the ball two or three times. Chen Meng's veneer strength is much higher than that of European athletes.
Foreign athletes who play chopping are more afraid of Sun Yingsha.
Sun Yingsha is regarded as the best table tennis player. Playing chop ball requires patience, pulling, rushing, short and long. Sun Yingsha's chopping can be regarded as a textbook style and relaxed.
On the other hand, Chen Meng is a little weak in chopping.
Mainly Chen Meng forehand lethality is insufficient, backhand quality is high. And playing chop ball mainly depends on strong forehand ability.
As long as foreign athletes face table tennis, they will basically lose, so it is good for both Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng. Basically don't think about how to win. I just want to carry a few more boards and win one or two games, which is already very good.
