Match Point

Chapter 174: upset

"Match Point(

Marcos Giron has always been introverted and low-key, and relatively passive. He seldom makes emotional outbursts or even loses control of his emotions.

Such a character is very pleasing in real life, sensible enough and calm enough, but in competitive sports, it lacks a bit of "killer instinct", it is difficult to suppress opponents with momentum, and it lacks some decisiveness at critical moments.

When his teammates stepped forward and took the initiative to fight, Jilong actually wanted to do the same, but he had his own pride and reserve, and it was difficult for him to take the initiative to attack aggressively. He always looked forward to it in his heart, and the coach would believe in himself It is also "bloody".

Therefore, Jilong has always stood beside and behind his teammates to express support. Whether he was the second single or the third single, or even squeezed to the fourth single, he never complained. He became a member of the team conscientiously and worked hard silently. I believe that I can return to the top.

However, in the view of the audience, no one saw his existence—

On the stage of the team finals, Giron was supposed to be the fourth player to play, but Thompson had already ended the game. There was no need for him to play, and the championship trophy was already in his pocket.

Of course Jilong is happy to be the champion, but deep down he still has some regrets, because he didn't play to deal with it, and he always feels like he is hitchhiking.

This is a bit uncomfortable for Giron, who has been the absolute main force for two consecutive seasons and shoulders heavy responsibilities.

In fact, Geelong also has his own fantasy.

The coach arranged for Geelong to appear in the fourth game, just to prepare for losing a point in front, and then he will end the entire championship game. After all, the opponent is the Trojans.

As rivals in the same city, they are the opponents who are most aware of the abilities of the Trojans. They will not dream of "4:0" to win the championship. "4:1" or "4:2" is a relatively realistic goal.

That is to say, deep down, Jiron also expected that he could become a final hero, but...he didn't get such an opportunity.

But this is a team game, everything should be focused on the collective, and then celebrate the Bruins' first national championship trophy in ten years!

However, the regrets and regrets of the team competition are still deeply buried in the bottom of my heart, and Jilong vented all of it on the singles arena.

"6:1", "6:1".

Geelong bloodbathed Hunter-Reese of the University of Tennessee and advanced strongly to the second round, but he did not expect that he became the only seedling among the top eight seeds. The last trace of face.

Such a situation is really a bit dumbfounding.

One upset and two upsets, the script of "the weak defeating the strong" is always exciting; but with seven upsets and eleven upsets, this is more like a farce.

Unintentionally, Giron returned to everyone's sight in such a way. After the team competition, the eyes of the Bruins are still on the Bruins.

In the first round of the men's singles, they were basically beaten, and the seeds were dropped one after another. This also means that the situation and development of the championship are difficult to predict accurately.

Fortunately, the much-anticipated showdown did not live up to the audience's expectations.

"Gowin VS Kerbert".

At the same time, this is also a contest between the 17th in the United States and the 10th in the United States.

Last week, in the quarterfinals of the team competition, the rivalry between UCLA and Ohio State University was already a hot topic in Athens. A fantastic showdown.

Then Gao Wen bloodbathed Kerbert with a double egg, which was the only double egg yolk in the entire US Championship, adding a little "legendary quality" to the game again.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion.

But I'm afraid, no one expected that such a wonderful and amusing matchup would be drawn in the first round of the draw for the singles match—

Gawain and Kebert will meet again.

Even the high-level NCAA leaders who were in charge of the lottery could not help but look at their right hand, which had the word funny written on its cheek after the lottery was drawn.

Kebert was also completely killed, so he was caught off guard, and the opportunity to wash away his shame came so soon.

But the question is, is it to wash away the shame, or...?

Colbot cuts off the idea before it gets any more dire, and then keeps on cheering himself on for this vengeful fight.

On the day of the first round, the duel between Kebert and Gao Wen was arranged on the center court. From here, it can be seen that the organizing committee also certified that this is a focus match.

In the opening stage, Kebert really came prepared. Summarizing the experience and lessons of the previous game, he not only did not take it lightly, but also continued to cheer for himself. From the choice of the route, it can be seen that he is fully prepared.

In any case, in a tennis match, the side that holds the right to serve takes the initiative. As long as the serving link can be perfect, then it can be impeccable.

Kerbert not only saved the first serve, but also successfully saved the second serve, and his morale was obviously high.

But Kebert's attention was more inclined towards his own serve, but he was not able to create a threat in Gao Wen's serve. Gao Wen also kept his serve smoothly, and did not encounter too many challenges in a relaxed manner, so the two sides came together. At "2:2", Kebert served again~lightnovelpub.net~ After he really got into the game, Kebert realized that it was far from enough to just do a good job in his own serve .

Gao Wen's batting ability is indeed very good. After trying and adjusting in the first two rounds of return and serve, those seemingly random mistakes in return and serve were gradually adjusted, and then the various methods of return and serve began to improve. Success rate, constantly disrupting Kerbert's rhythm.

Slowly, the baseline offense also became awkward.

A powerful baseline player like Kerbert has a relatively simple game style, which is to constantly exert force, exert force, exert force again, and attack the whole court. However, facing Gao Wen, it is difficult for Kebert to find such a stable and steady Fast attacking tempo.

Spin, power, landing point, Gao Wen's every return of the ball is changing, always in a state of changing speed, fast and slow, slow and fast, up and down, forward and backward, causing Kebert to have to Constantly looking for offensive rhythm, pat force, blind force, and force regardless.

Sometimes, you can hit a wonderful winning point; but more often, you make frequent mistakes.

Just like this round.

Kebert's serve was very good, but Gao Wen took a slice and flew over with a full parabola, and after hitting the ground rebounded a little high.

Kebert forcibly launched an attack, and completed the forehand while adjusting the continuous retreating footsteps, and the force was very full.

However, Gao Wen accurately predicted Kebert's hitting line, jammed his forehand slash, sliced ​​again lightly, and returned a strong backspin, forcing Kebert to lower his center of gravity and squat down cumbersomely. Pulling the tennis ball up, even though the timing is not right, he still exerts force regardless of his strength and attacks forcibly.

attack! attack! Attack again!

Kerbert is already red-eyed!
