On January 17th, Beijing time, Manchester United made a comeback victory against Southampton in the Premier League. In the first half, Ugarte scored an own goal during a corner kick defense, leaving Manchester United trailing 0-1. However, Amad Diallo came to the rescue, scoring a hat-trick and helping the Red Devils secure a 3-1 win. While Solskjaer's signing of Diallo has brought joy to the fans, Ten Hag's introduction of the Danish striker has left them frustrated. In 8 games, Diallo has scored 0 goals and provided 0 assists, revealing his true form. Ten Hag seems to have made a mistake, with a £73.9 million investment going down the drain. In early 2021, Manchester United signed Diallo from Atalanta for a transfer fee of 21.3 million euros. This season, with more opportunities, Diallo has exploded, scoring 9 goals and providing 7 assists by the halfway point of the season. He has performed exceptionally well against strong teams like Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool, becoming the first player to complete a hat-trick for Manchester United since Cristiano Ronaldo. Similarly, both Diallo and Hojlund transferred from Atalanta to Manchester United, but while Diallo has shown incredible talent, Hojlund has increasingly disappointed United fans. In the match against Southampton, Hojlund completed only 2 key passes, had 1 shot on goal, successfully contested 2 out of 10 duels, touched the ball 17 times but lost possession 6 times, and was substituted by Zirkzee just 8 minutes into the second half. After Hojlund's substitution, Manchester United turned the game around. Hojlund is quite active…

In the sport of table tennis, which is hailed as the national game, every athlete, coach, and manager carries the hopes and dreams of countless people. In today's table tennis world, there is one name that seems to be closely linked with these expectations and dreams - Liu Guoliang, Chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association and First Vice President of the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF). Recently, Liu Guoliang has been facing a difficult period in his career. As the Chairman of WTT (World Table Tennis Corporation), his every move is closely watched. However, some new policies introduced by WTT have not entirely won the favor of athletes and fans. These policies have sparked controversy and subjected Liu Guoliang to criticism from some fans. At the same time, the General Administration of Sport is vigorously rectifying fan culture, and as a top performer in the sports world, the national table tennis team has naturally been drawn into this. In this process, Liu Guoliang unexpectedly became the focus of some public opinion, being pointed out as the "mastermind" behind the proliferation of fan culture. This undoubtedly added immense pressure on him and made him a focal figure in the storm of the table tennis world. However, when we delve deeper into Liu Guoliang's contributions to the table tennis arena, we find that these criticisms are not enough to overshadow his remarkable achievements. Since Liu Guoliang took office as the First Vice President of the ITTF, he has achieved significant success in promoting table tennis. He has not only worked to…

On January 17, 2025, the WTT regular table tennis tournament in Muscat continued. In the women's singles final, two national team players faced each other in an internal battle. The result was Shi Xunyao sweeping Kuai Man 4-0, becoming the second singles champion of the new season for the national team. She proved herself capable with her performance. The women's singles final featured a national team derby between Shi Xunyao, born in 2001, and Kuai Man, born in 2004, competing for the championship. First, we must acknowledge the performance of both players. They have completed the task of not losing any external matches and managed to meet in the final, securing both the championship and runner-up positions. During the Doha Star Match, the two had previously faced each other, with Kuai Man defeating Shi Xunyao, leaving a deep impression on many fans. In terms of competitive level, Kuai Man is slightly superior. Kuai Man is one of the outstanding young players of the national team, holding a world championship title in the team event and ranked 18th in the world in women's singles. At the previous station, she swept Japanese star Miharu Kihara to become the first singles champion of the new year. Shi Xunyao, on the other hand, excels in mixed doubles. In her first partnership with Huang Youzheng, they took second place, and this station saw them back-to-back into the final. Unfortunately, they lost to the Spanish pair of Robles/Xiao Yaoqi and were unable to reach the top. It is worth noting that Kuai Man and Chen Yi…

On January 17th, during the women's singles quarterfinals of the World Badminton Federation India Open, Chinese player Wang Zhiyi faced off against Japanese player Miyazaki Tomoka. The first set started normally, with Wang Zhiyi leading 8-2. However, the situation changed dramatically as Miyazaki Tomoka caught up and eventually tied and overtook the score, winning the first set 21-16. Surprisingly, during the break between sets, Wang Zhiyi requested to withdraw from the match to the referee. It is worth noting that Wang Zhiyi is the sixth, sixth, and sixth Chinese player to withdraw from this India Open. In the first round, Chen Boyang/Liu Yi, Chinese badminton team players who won the men's doubles runner-up last week at the Malaysia Open, were playing against their teammates Xie Haonan/Zeng Weihan when they suddenly withdrew after the first set reached 4-6. In the previous round, Jia Yifan/Zhang Shuxian, who also won the women's doubles runner-up last week at the Malaysia Open, suddenly withdrew during their match against the Thai pair Chen Kangle/Tina when the first set reached 4-14. Similarly, in the first round, Hong Kong, China player Lo Shuen Yan withdrew after finishing the first set of her match against Japanese player Ninomiya Natsuki. This means that the rumors of a "withdrawal wave" among Chinese players at the India Open have been confirmed. Within four days, six players from one country have withdrawn, which is quite astonishing. Withdrawing one or two players may be accidental, but if six players withdraw, there must be a certain inevitability. According to relevant reports, the water that flows…

Shandong Taishan Team is making steady preparations for the new season, with the most eye-catching event being the addition of new signing Tang Chuang. Under the leadership of head coach Choi Kang-hee, the team has welcomed this promising forward, and Tang Chuang has quickly won the recognition of the coaching staff and fans with his performance. Tang Chuang is a young forward born in 1996, currently at the prime of his career. On his first training session with Taishan Team, he displayed an impressive professional attitude and technical ability. His serious and focused training attitude, coupled with flexible and varied positioning awareness, immediately caught the attention of the fans and coaching staff on site. Many fans, after watching his training performance, expressed that Tang Chuang's strength is significantly better than that of Bi Jinhao, who joined last season. This comparison is not without basis. First, from the age perspective, Tang Chuang, as a 26-year-old player, is at the best stage of his career, with both physical functions and technical levels at their peak. During his time with Chengdu Rongcheng last season, Tang Chuang demonstrated outstanding attacking abilities, especially in the match against Shanghai Port, where he scored twice in a spectacular performance. This match became an important reference for Taishan Team to bring him in. In contrast, Bi Jinhao was already 33 years old when he joined Taishan Team, at the declining stage of his career. Prior to this, his performance with Changchun Yatai had already shown signs of physical decline, and many fans considered his signing to be controversial.…

The Clippers, Mavericks, and Timberwolves have captured the attention of countless fans with almost every game they play. Their matches are not just a battle of skills and tactics but also a thrilling journey that captivates the heart. In the intense clash between the Clippers and the 76ers, Harden emerged as the biggest contributor to the Clippers' victory. His performance was not only in scoring but also in defense, where he fully implemented the team's strategy. As the rhythm of the game changed, Harden used his agile reactions and skilled techniques to continuously pressure the opponents. Not only Harden, but the other four players of the Clippers also showed no weakness. Their scoring abilities were fully displayed, with all five starters scoring in double digits, and their plus-minus values were all above +30. This performance undoubtedly reflected the team's current explosive state. Defensively, the Clippers also shone. They held their opponents to under 100 points in four consecutive games, which is an extremely rare achievement. Through layer upon layer of defense, the team not only successfully stopped the opponent's offensive momentum but also scored through counterattacks, firmly grasping the victory in their hands.

The CBA regular season has completed two-thirds of its schedule, and there have been new changes in the standings. The top four teams are Zhejiang Guangsha, Shanxi men's basketball, Shandong men's basketball, and Qingdao men's basketball. Looking at the overall strength, the top 12 in the standings have basically been determined. For many teams, there are only 15 games left in the regular season, and the competition between playoff teams will become very fierce. Zhejiang Guangsha has performed very strongly this season, currently ranking first in the standings with a record of 27 wins and 4 losses, securing their place in the playoffs early. After the addition of superstar foreign player Brown to the team, Zhejiang Guangsha's lineup shortcomings have been strengthened. In terms of foreign players, the team has signed former super scorer Nunnery in addition to Bo Ban, Knight, and Carton. This time, Wang Bo's guidance is really going to fight a rich battle. Zhejiang Guangsha has become one of the favorites to win the championship in the league.

Zhang Yining, once known as the "Great Demon King" of table tennis, captivated countless fans with her fierce playing style and superior skills. However, in recent years, she has found herself embroiled in a whirlpool of public opinion. Many fans hold the view that after marrying into a wealthy family, Zhang Yining gradually withdrew from the public eye and no longer seemed to exert the same level of effort in promoting table tennis as before. This perspective is not entirely baseless; compared to Wang Nan's active presence in the public sphere, Zhang Yining appeared to lead a more secluded life. "Words can be fearsome," and sometimes public opinion can make a one-sided judgment on someone without a deep understanding of the situation. But is this really the case? Recently, a series of events involving Zhang Yining shed light on this misunderstood aspect of her life. The voice of her black apprentice, Jeffrey Roy, provided strong evidence to the contrary. It turns out that Zhang Yining has been quietly contributing to the cause of table tennis abroad. During her tenure as a coach at the China Table Tennis College Papua New Guinea Training Center, she met Jeffrey Roy. Zhang Yining treated this apprentice with great dedication, not only imparting professional skills and tactics but also generously providing equipment for playing. Under her meticulous guidance, Roy's technical and tactical levels soared. At the South Pacific Games, Roy shone brightly, winning silver medals in two events, which undoubtedly stands as the best testament to Zhang Yining's teaching achievements. Subsequently, Zhang Yining's appearance in…
