"Gavin vs. Robredo", the first semi-final in which Valencia took the lead, is very unusual. Reading the technical statistics of the first two games after the game, you may be able to see some clues:

Unforced errors: Gawain, 27; Robredo, 20.

Top 20 in double figures, this statistic is outrageous for both players.

Because neither Gawain nor Robredo is an adventurous type who makes mistakes all over the sky, nor is he an aggressive and aggressive type, such turnover data is indeed abnormal.

Gawain and Robredo's unforced error statistics were not necessarily so high during the US Open, even in four-set or five-set matches.

However, looking at another technical statistic, one can understand what is going on in the game.

Winners: Gawain, 34; Robredo, 23.

Obviously, this is a confrontational battle.

In indoor hard courts, the offense does occupy a very, very important position. It is often difficult for defensive counterattack players to find enough gaps to reverse the situation. Relying on a smooth offense to take the initiative is king.

In this regard, Gao Wen and Robredo should have reached a consensus. Therefore, the two players are competing for the initiative. The low environment further magnified such characteristics, which led to such a situation.

In fact, Gao Wen really felt the tremendous pressure brought by Robredo. This is a player with not outstanding characteristics but no obvious loopholes.

Moreover, objectively speaking, Gao Wen's state and touch still haven't returned to the peak, at least compared with the US Open period, there is still a little gap:

High mistakes are the most intuitive proof.

However, Gao Wen was still very decisive in his shots. Even if there were unforced errors, he still did not waver. He continued to insist on formulating tactics before the game. At the critical moment, his big heart was slowly regaining his own rhythm of the game.

These details are all different from the games in the Imperial City and the Magic City, and it is also a direct proof that Gao Wen's state has maintained an upward curve.

The result of the game is the best expression.

Both sets were tie-breaks, and the final point difference was only two points.

Both Gawain and Robredo played very well, and faced the opponent's impact with a tough attitude. The head-to-head contest was full of sparks.

In the end, it depends on the performance at the critical moment, a little bit of determination, a little bit of luck, all you have to fight for is one breath. Both players have saved the set and missed the set. The victory or defeat of one point determines the outcome of the whole set towards.

In the first set, Gao Wen fulfilled his second set point with the winning point.

In the second set, in Robredo's third count, Gao Wen took the initiative to attack and got off the net to hand over the victory.

Attacks and mistakes, suppression and countermeasures, this is the main theme of the game, it is indeed very "indoor hard court"; and, despite the fact that both sets are tie-breaks, the pace of the game is very fast, and the two sets are only played for 85 minutes That's it, there are not many rounds of tug-of-war.

Even so, the two players still went all out in the final set.

From the "1:1" stalemate all the way to "6:6", especially at the end of the game, both Gao Wen and Robredo showed incredible concentration and dedication. Neither player saw the match point, so , this game will enter the tie-break for the third consecutive set—

Are you sure this isn't a match between Isner and Karlovic?

In the third tie-break, Robredo took the lead to serve.

In the first point, Robredo still maintained a high degree of concentration, from serving to attacking, he played steadily and was ready for a long seesaw and multiple rounds. Valley rice

However, Gawain didn't think so—

The round came to the fifth beat, and Robredo hit a forehand with a small angle of oblique line, aiming at Gao Wen's center position from his right side.

This is a transition shot with a hidden edge.

Robredo deliberately chose the middle area, and landed on the route of Gao Wen's lateral movement. Special attention should be paid to the adjustment of footsteps, otherwise it is easy to overshoot; at the same time, the return ball was pressed very deep, almost on the baseline, passing through the deep area Squeeze, squeeze Gao Wen's swing space.

In other words, the transition ball is indeed a transition ball, but Gao Wen needs to be very careful in handling it.

I have to say that Robredo's batting is indeed very solid, and this time, he also successfully squeezed Gao Wen—

In the process of moving laterally for the forehand defense, the foot speed was a little faster. Unexpectedly, Robredo deliberately did not pull the angle away, and the inertia of the forward charge was slightly too strong.

In addition, Robredo hides a backspin ball, and the rebound height of the tennis ball after landing is near the waist and abdomen, which further squeezes Gao Wen's swing space.

Even if it is not an offense, the transition ball can also gain the upper hand in the confrontation.

According to common sense, Gao Wen also returned a transitional ball to solve the crisis, which is enough, because Robredo's hitting is not pursuing winning points, but accumulating advantages, so it is impossible for Gao Wen to complete the returning ball. Next, Robredo will inevitably link up the offense and further expand his advantage.

At this moment, this shot of the ball most directly showed Gao Wen's continued recovery and upward trend:

With his forehand pinned to his body, he could hardly stretch his swing, but relied on his forearm to complete an attack with the power of turning his body.

Yes, not transition, but offense.

Of course, instead of taking the initiative to forcefully attack, it is to grab a rising point through the strength of the swing of the forearm.

When hitting the ball, you can see that when Gao Wen is running at high speed, his center of gravity is completely bent and lowered. He seized the opportunity of Robredo's return ball and landed on the bottom line, and used the squatting action to create a bouncing effect against the wall. Then the forearm swung quickly to complete the force, and pushed the tennis ball back.

The point is, Gawain made a small slash back; moreover, he tore off the angle.

Robredo did not expect it at all, and was caught off guard. Even though his footsteps stayed near the forehand, he still staggered and continued to move laterally to the right, and very reluctantly cut a big slash with his forehand. , pulled a diagonal, trying to restrain Gao Wen.

However, Gao Wen went online.

The first time~lightnovelpub.net~ Gao Wen's footsteps had already entered the bottom line, and he stepped up at full speed, catching the commanding height slightly raised by the parabola of Robredo's return ball, before the falling point of the tennis ball. Before hitting the net, he used the forehand to push a straight line with a slice.

Whoosh!

Robredo just started the second time, and the tennis ball has already landed and bounced out.

"1:0".

At a passive moment that was not an opportunity, Gao Wen launched an attack boldly and carefully. The transition between offense and defense was smooth and smooth, not only suddenly but also forcefully.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Wen kept his two serving points in a row, took a "3:0" lead, and established the lead in the tie-break, and did not give Robredo a chance to comeback. He took the lead all the way, and the first match point was Win the game with a strong forehand straight attack.
