Match Point

Chapter 347: wave the flag

Turning around, Gao Wen could see the slowly receding camera lens pointing at him, truly recording the real and warm scene just now.

Gao Wen is still not quite used to it. He has only played two games in Flushing, and he has already gained a fan, and there is no support from the school or fellow countrymen. Is this a surprise?

Aware of the capture of the camera lens, Gao Wen was a little cautious, scratched his head, showed a smile, and then made a "shh" movement towards the camera lens, as if asking the audience who saw this scene to keep a secret and not to go around The publicity was so-so, which immediately made the fans and reporters watching this scene burst into good-natured laughter.

"Gao Wen! Come on!"

Familiar Chinese was heard from the spectator stands obliquely ahead, easily grabbing Gao Wen's attention and reminding him not to forget his compatriot fans.

He raised his head and looked over, and then he could see three friendly faces from his hometown gathered beside the player tunnel, with bright smiles blooming in front of his eyes. It was the location where Gao Wen was going to visit but was unexpectedly interrupted. You can feel the advantages of many fellow villagers in this city of New York.

Obviously, they are fans who unconditionally support Gao Wen, and today they also made a special trip to cheer for Gao Wen.

During the competition, one could see a bright five-star red flag constantly fluttering in the wind, bathed in the golden sunlight, playing the role of Gao Wen's most solid backing with hoarse voice and passion, which also made the second round of the competition a little different .

"Thanks!"

Gao Wen waved his hand to say hello. Whenever he saw his compatriots, he was kind and familiar, and the smile on his mouth naturally rose.

Signing, shaking hands, greetings, and short cordial conversations, after serving the fans, Gao Wen, who was covered in sweat, finally left along the long and narrow stadium passage.

It can be seen from the back that the fatigue is exhausting, but the joy and happiness are still overflowing, and then Zhang Dalei, who quietly witnessed all this, is full of distaste.

In fact, there were not many Huaxia fans who came to Stadium 17 today, there were only seven of them, and in the middle of the game, four of them left the stadium.

reason?

It's complicated and varied, but at the end of the day, it's a lack of confidence.

On the one hand, tennis fans are relatively limited. After Li Na retired due to injury, the attention of this year's US Open has also plummeted. The number of fans who are going to Flushing to watch the game has decreased by more than half.

Then, Gao Wen made a shocking surprise to win the first Grand Slam victory, which caught all the fans by surprise. Obviously, many fans had no time to adjust their schedules and came to Flushing to watch the game on Thursday.

On the other hand, the fans rejoiced because Gao Wen made history, and looked forward to Gao Wen's further breakthrough and creation of more history, but deep down, did they really believe that Gao Wen could make persistent efforts to advance to the third round?

As soon as the result came up, Gao Wen lost two sets in a row. It was like being conceded five goals in the first half of the national football game. So, do the fans still have the confidence to believe that the national football team can come back in the second half? Even if the opponent is only "a mere" Thailand?

What's more, at the same time period, Peng Shuai, another representative player of China Tennis, was also playing.

Today, Peng Shuai will face the No. 4 seed player Radwanska in the women's singles. This match will be directly arranged at the Louis Armstrong Stadium, and it will undoubtedly be one of the key matches.

Obviously, the appreciation value of Peng Shuai's game is higher. Even after several struggles and repeated considerations, he still chose the signal of the Louis Armstrong Stadium.

Between Peng Shuai, who "has achieved countless successes and is more capable of confrontation", and Gao Wen, who "emerged from nowhere and now only has the possibility of winning in theory", it is not that difficult to choose which match.

So, in the end, there were only three fans who persisted until the end of the game, witnessing the birth of history again on the 17th court!

Wang Dalei complained about Gao Wen.

The overall average strength of men's tennis is closer, and every victory and every duel is more difficult and more intense. Otherwise, the Chinese men's players will not be unable to break through for a long time.

Now Gao Wen was fighting with an unimaginable burden on his own, and he needed to go all out in every match to be able to fight for a faint ray of hope.

However, Gao Wen never gave up. With high fighting spirit and tenacious perseverance, he forcibly fought his way out and turned his faint hope into reality. He eliminated the No. 13 seed in the first round, lost two and won three in the second round. In a reversal, a slight negligence in any game may lead to different results.

How commendable.

Indeed, everyone likes to win, and no one likes a player or a team because of one defeat after another, but if everyone supports the strong, who can stand behind the weak and cheer for them Woolen cloth? If everyone supports the winners, who can stand by the side of the losers?

In the Premier League, there is a team called Brentford, and there is a fan named Derek-Burridge.

Burrich has been a fan of Brentford since he was a child. On May 26, 1947, the 14-year-old Burrich watched Brentford lose 0:1 to Arsenal at home and was rejected. He was relegated and left the stadium in tears.

After that, Brentford sank all the way, and countless loyal fans turned around. After all, there are too many teams in London where they are, but Borich has always persisted and silently supported the team. ~lightnovelpub.net~ until August 15th, 2021, seventy-four years later.

Brentford finally returned to the Premier League as a newly promoted team. In the first round, their opponent was against Arsenal at home. Burrich fought with the team on the spot. In the end, Brentford was upset with "2:0" "Beating Arsenal, at that moment, Burrich burst into tears, crying like a child.

At this time, Burrich was eighty-eight years old.

It is true that competitive sports are always about victory; but sometimes it should be realized that competitive sports are not only about victory, but also about hard work, challenges, breakthroughs, blood, hard work, and never The battle of giving up!

There is no doubt that the next round of competition will be very, very difficult for Gao Wen. With the deepening of the rounds, the opponent will definitely become stronger and stronger, and the difficulty of winning will naturally increase exponentially.

However, if they didn't even fight with Gao Wen, wouldn't the hope of victory be even more slim?

Wang Dalei sincerely hopes that more fans from his compatriots will come to cheer for Gao Wen. Regardless of whether he wins or loses, they will accompany Gao Wen to fight together. Before the final point of victory, Gao Wen will not give up, and they should not give up. !

Gawain deserves it.
