On December 30th, Beijing time, Sun Yingsha scored two points, but the biggest hero of Shenzhen University's entry into the finals was someone else. Kuai Man made the whole audience cheer, and even Sun Yingsha couldn't bother to warm up, standing there to applaud for her.
Shenzhen University eventually eliminated Shanghai Longteng with a 3-1 victory, advancing to the finals of the Table Tennis Super League. In the last match, they will see if they can meet Shandong Luneng at the peak. In this match, although Sun Yingsha scored two points as the team's No. 1 singles in the second and fourth games, the biggest contributor to the victory was someone else. It can only be said that in this game, Kuai Man was really too critical and important. Without her, Shenzhen University would have been eliminated 99%.
Although Sun Yingsha indeed scored two points, everyone knew that the most important thing for Shenzhen University to advance was whether their teammates could contribute one point. No matter how strong Sun Yingsha's ability was, it would be useless if her teammates couldn't score a single point; this is a team event. The result was that Shenzhen University had already lost 1:3 in the women's doubles, and in the third game, Kuai Man faced Chen Yi. If Kuai Man couldn't win, the last game would likely end in a crushing defeat.
Because the last game was scheduled to be Tan Yuexuan against He Zhuojia, and He Zhuojia's abilities far surpassed Tan Yuexuan, so Shanghai Longteng basically locked in the win for this match. Therefore, if Kuai Man didn't win, the score would be 2-3. After finishing the second game, Sun Yingsha became very anxious and didn't even go to warm up for the third game. Instead, she stood by the court watching Kuai Man play and giving her special guidance.
Because Sun Yingsha also knew that she didn't need to warm up for the fourth game against Liu Weishan; she could just go up and perform normally to win. The key was that if Kuai Man lost the third game, even if Sun Yingsha won the fourth game, it wouldn't help Shenzhen University. Usually, when the third game of a team event is being played, the fourth game's athletes should start warming up in preparation, but in this match, Sun Yingsha didn't warm up; she stayed there to guide Kuai Man.
Kuai Man indeed encountered problems, leading 2-0 at the beginning but then being chased by Chen Yi for two consecutive sets, reaching an 8:8 tie in the decisive set, which was terrifying. Fortunately, at a critical moment, Kuai Man took a deep breath, adjusted her shots, and scored three consecutive points to win 11:8 with difficulty. The moment she won, you could see how excited Sun Yingsha was; she stood up and applauded directly. During the previous slow pause, it was also Sun Yingsha who gave her guidance, and now it was this scene again.
Because everyone clearly understood that if Kuai Man couldn't win this match, Sun Yingsha's tragedy of empty scoring would basically be staged. Now, Sun Yingsha guiding Kuai Man to victory has made their advancement too stable. As expected, in the last game, Sun Yingsha brutally defeated Liu Weishan 3:0, and without any surprises, she will face off against Wang Manyu and Luneng at the pinnacle. With Sun Yingsha's hard strength, defeating Liu Weishan should be a given, but considering Kuai Man's abilities, she had lost to Chen Yi several times before, and there was no guarantee that she could win. It's worth noting that Liu Guoliang was also present at the scene.
