This year's Wang Manyu in the table tennis super league left a deep impression on people. Although Wang Manyu had fewer appearances due to illness in the first stage of the table tennis super league, after leading Shandong Luneng to defeat Sun Yingsha, who led Shenzhen University, Wang Manyu won the championship and roared to the sky twice in an unusual manner. Why did Wang Manyu make such an unusual move? Where did the usual gentle and elegant Wang Manyu go?
In fact, Wang Manyu was determined to win this year's table tennis super league championship because Shandong Luneng has three main players of the Chinese women's table tennis team: Wang Manyu, Chen Xintong, and Qian Tianyi. It is difficult for any other team to compete with Shandong Luneng in terms of overall strength. However, the final process of the table tennis super league was unexpectedly tough, and it was not easy for Wang Manyu to win this year's table tennis super league championship.
Sun Yingsha from Shenzhen University successively defeated Wang Manyu and Qian Tianyi with a score of 3:2 in the second and fourth sets. However, Sun Yingsha's two teammates failed to score a point. In the first set, Kuai Man and Tan Yuexuan lost to Qian Tianyi and Chen Xintong with a score of 1:3. In the third set, Kuai Man lost to Chen Xintong with a score of 1:3, and in the fourth set, Tan Yuexuan lost to Wang Manyu with a score of 2:3.
The final process of this year's table tennis super league was difficult to distinguish, but there were two controversial balls in the final. The first time was in the fourth set between Qian Tianyi and Sun Yingsha. Sun Yingsha suddenly signaled that her forehand attack touched the edge. Although the referee maintained the original decision and gave the point to Qian Tianyi, Sun Yingsha found two referees to discuss the game, which delayed a lot of time and affected Qian Tianyi's mentality, who was originally leading 2:1.
At this time, the audience outside the court also believed that the ball touched the edge, and in the next two sets, Qian Tianyi collapsed and quickly lost two sets with a score of 2:3, being reversed by Sun Yingsha. As a result, the final of the table tennis super league was dragged into the decisive set. In the fifth set between Wang Manyu and Tan Yuexuan, another controversial ball appeared again.
The referee originally wanted to change the score to Tan Yuexuan, but the video replay of this ball could not determine who should score. After the referee's repeated consideration, it was decided to let Wang Manyu and Tan Yuexuan play again. This controversial ball where neither of them scored was already the best result, but it was also the result of Wang Manyu's discussion with the referee for more than 10 minutes.
Despite the reappearance of controversial balls and the one-sided unfriendly shouts from the audience outside the court, Wang Manyu withstood the pressure in the decisive set and took the lead to defeat Tan Yuexuan, winning the championship of this year's table tennis super league for Shandong Luneng. Immediately after the game, Wang Manyu raised her arms and roared to the sky twice, while Sun Yingsha, who failed to win the championship, was not happy. Wang Manyu's excessive celebration did not take Sun Yingsha's feelings into account.
In fact, the reason why Wang Manyu roared to the sky twice in an unusual manner was not the two controversial balls that appeared, nor was Wang Manyu's roar directed at teammates Sun Yingsha and Tan Yuexuan. It was the one-sided unfriendly shouts from the audience outside the court that had been touching Wang Manyu's bottom line.
