Original title: Uber Cup group stage: China beat Malaysia 5:0
In the second round of the Uber Cup badminton match on the 10th, the Chinese team did not lose a game and defeated the Malaysian team by an overwhelming advantage.
Tokyo Olympics women’s singles champion Chen Yufei opened against the 20-year-old Wen Qixuan. This is Chen Yufei’s first appearance in this Uber Cup. After a short adjustment, she quickly opened the score and scored a point for the Chinese team in two straight games 21:13 and 21:11. In the second match, the Liu Xuanxuan/Xia Yuting combination faced the women’s doubles world ranked 11th Li Mingyan and 18th Tina, and finally won 21:12, 21:17.
Xia Yuting said after the game that today’s opponent was much stronger than yesterday, and the second game was stalemate as expected. “We are ready to meet the difficulties. The opponents are putting pressure on us, and we are also actively changing and adapting to the game.”
Liu Xuanxuan said: “As long as we do ourselves well, our opponents may make mistakes. We can take the opportunity to deal with the details and we will be able to open the score. Then as long as there is a chance to play, we will try our best to score points for the team.”
In the third game, He Bingjiao faced the 17-year-old Sitino Suhaini, who was far from his own, and took the opponent 21:8 and 21:3 in only 23 minutes. When He Bingjiao faced Canadian Li Wenshan on the 9th, he directly won because his opponent retired before the second game. The game has not encountered any challenges so far.
“To defeat myself in the game, in addition to the opponent, own factors also affect the outcome. Who the opponent is and what state is beyond my control. No matter what the opponent’s situation is, all I can do is to go all out to stimulate my state.” He Bing Jiao said.
In the fourth game, Huang Dongping and Jia Yifan, who had not been together for more than seven years, defeated Wu Peiqi/Zhang Meixin 21:9 and 21:12. In the last game, 21-year-old Wang Zhiyi defeated 18-year-old Lesana with 21:15 and 21:11.
Jia Yifan said after the game: “Continuous battles make people feel a little mentally fatigued. In order to regain the Uber Cup championship, each of us will work hard to actively mobilize ourselves.”
