Almighty Athlete Chapter 122: Powerlessness
"Zhang Guan can still run!" Nadal was surprised.
Not far away, the scoreboard shows the score of the second set, 6-4, the winner is still Zhang Guan.
In the first two games, when Nadal’s explosive power dropped, Zhang Guan increased his rhythm and ran more aggressively, playing a continuous offensive, which was like a torrential rain, making Nadal unable to do anything. Parry. As a result, Zhang Guan won two consecutive games and also won the second set.
In the past, the two men held each other back and forth to win the next ball, but in these two games, Zhang Guan won the game neatly, and did not go through too long a round of stalemate. Even people who don’t know much about tennis can watch. Out of Zhang Guan prevailed in the situation.
Nadal was originally planning to continue to hold on with Zhang Guan, but it was completely fundamental to the offensive rhythm of Zhang Guan. As a result, he naturally lost both games.
"What's the matter? Zhang Guan's running is just like the beginning of the game, and the physical strength is like no consumption at all! This game has been playing for nearly two hours, and the intensity of the game is so big, how is it possible? No physical exertion? Even if the Zhang Guan's physical strength is stronger than mine, it is impossible to have as much physical energy as the first match!" Nadal couldn't understand why this happened, and when he remembered himself 2- When 0 is behind, my heart is getting more and more anxious.
......
In front of the TV, Federer sighed: "It seems that Nadal cannot achieve his three consecutive French Open titles."
"Although it is behind 2-0, Nadal should have a chance!" Mirka said from the side.
"It is impossible to make a comeback. Have you noticed that the last two innings of the previous set, Zhang Guan not only attacked fiercely, but also moved more agilely, which shows that Zhang Guan still has a lot of physical reserves; Dahl, in the last two innings of the last set, obviously not keeping up with the rhythm, and his physical reserve is about to bottom out.” Federer continued: “The reason why Nadal is considered to be a strong defender is mainly because of his movement. Powerful, his style of play is also based on strong movement ability, once he can't run. His style of play becomes useless, that time is the moment when Nadal crashed!"
"Nadal can't run?" Mirka shook his head: "It shouldn't be wrong, everyone can say that Nadal is the best tennis player."
"I don’t mean that he can’t run, but that he can’t keep up with the rhythm of Zhang Guan running. The core of both of them is running. In defense, who The more aggressive you run, the more stable your defense will be, and the more aggressive you will run during offense. The easier it will be to suppress your opponent." Federer said, his expression becoming serious, and he continued: " Therefore, in this case, if one party's rhythm slows down, his defensive intensity will be reduced, and his offense will also lose its repressiveness. In contrast, his opponent can easily complete the defense and exert more pressure on the offense. "
"So Nadal only lost so much in the last two games?" Mirka asked.
Federer nodded: "And I think, maybe it was just the beginning. In the third set, Nadal may not be able to support for so long! Zhang Guan should soon start celebrating his second Grand Slam championship. !"
......
As soon as the third set of the two sides started, Nadal tried to launch an offensive. The rest between the two sets allowed Nadal to recover and some physical strength, and the total score of 2-0 behind encouraged Nadal to work harder. , Pull back the score as soon as possible.
In the next few games, Zhang Guan faced Nadal's counterattack, and at one time he was somewhat passive. He was even suppressed by Nadal in his serving game, but Nadal was still unable to break through Zhang Guan's defense. I still didn't get a break.
In the first six games, both sides successfully saved the serve, but the continuous counterattack also caused Nadal's physical strength to be consumed again. But Nadal also knew that he had to keep pace with Zhang Guan. With the play style of both of them, once they can't keep up with the rhythm of the game, they will crash instantly.
"Come on! Please come on! Run faster!" Nadal, with a strong willpower, supported himself to speed up and try to keep up with the rhythm of the game.
However, the Zhang Guan on the opposite side has no pause. At least on the surface, Zhang Guan shows no signs of physical weakness.
"How can Zhang Guan run so much? Does he still have so much physical strength? Isn't he tired?" Nadal's eyes showed a trace of perplexity, and he couldn't figure it out, he was already tired as a dog. , And the opposite Zhang Guan is still in a full state.
The score in the third set came to 4-4. From the perspective of the situation, the two sides are still in the balance, but in fact, Nadal is already supporting this high-intensity run.
"I am the King of Red Clay, I want to win three consecutive French Open titles, how can I lose!" A strong belief supports Nadal, his speed has not slowed down, and his forehand is still strong .
The Zhang Guan has once again advanced and advanced the receiving point, quickly changing the rhythm of offense and defense, attacking Nadal’s neutral gear. Similar to this tactic, Zhang Guan has also been used many times in this game. It is not strange to say.
The Zhang Guan's running and attacking tactics are indeed very powerful against ordinary professional players, but of course, to players of the level of Payler or Nadal, of course, it is impossible to win in one hit, at most it is to gain some advantages. Based on Nadal's defensive strength, Zhang Guan's running and attacking tactics are like a large bale of straw, which looks bulky, but the weight is within an acceptable range.
Sometimes, the last straw can crush a camel, not to mention a whole bundle of straw.
And this is not the last bale of straw. Zhang Guan caught the ball again in advance, changed the rhythm of the batting again, and threw a bale of straw to Nadal.
Finally, Nadal’s strong camel can’t hold it anymore, he still has to fall...
......
Now the score in the third set is 5-4, Zhang Guan leads and has already achieved the match point, and Nadal's serve is in progress.
Nadal was behind in his serve, and before that, the two sides had experienced three equalizations.
The score is Zhang Guan first, and on the court, the two are holding each other with their forehands.
Nadal used his forehand to attack Zhang Guan’s backhand. Zhang Guan was also using his forehand to attack Nadal’s backhand. When facing his opponent’s own backhand, both sides ran to catch the ball with forehand Position ~IndoMTL.com~ and then launch his own attack.
At this time, the game became a contest of speed. If anyone who took the lead one step slower and could not reach a position where he could use forehand to catch the ball, he could only be forced to use the backhand to catch the ball. Receiving the ball in the backhand, the next thing you face is definitely endless suppression until you lose the ball.
Finally, Nadal was slower in a catch. He was forced to use the backhand to catch the ball. Of course, Zhang Guan could not miss this opportunity. He began a violent suppression without hesitation.
"Oops!" Nadal knew that if the ball was dropped, he would lose the entire game and lose his three consecutive French Open titles!
"This time it is really powerless to return to heaven!" (To be continued.)
