Getting closer. Still way to go till you are at 1m

ML vs KN is no brainer to predict. FZD vs TH will be quite interesting. Not sure which way it will go.

I agree, but it's the best possible match up for me at this point anyway, because really... no matter who would play ML now (except for TH and FZD), the winner of that match would be easily predictable.

It's just that I love to see KN play - whether he wins or loses.

Back online now. ZYL vs Hirano 1:1 now.

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

1:2 Hirano losing her confidence and her nerves.

ZYL is not even playing well

Looks like it will end quickly

There's more differential from shot to shot for Hirano. Though her footwork is not there yet.

She heard me. Adjusted midway through and took game 4.

Nice swatting by Hirano at 6:10.

Game 6, 10:5, 10:8, 11:8. That's why ZYL doesn't get to play singles at this WTTC.

OTOH, this is the best showing I've seen from Hirano in a good while.

 

[Janard]

I think this match proves that the CNT coaches made the right choice by excluding ZYL from singles.

I'm sort of angry with Hirano, she made a lot of unforgivable mistakes in this match. Should win.

 

[drunix80]

ZYL seemed to have no weapon against MH apart from putting the ball back. Atleast she used to have a bit more power earlier.

sorry guys I cannot watch hirano playing. She has no idea what to do besides playing diagonally BH to BH. She is here for a while and I do not see any development from her. For me she is the worst player in JNT.
ZYL played really poor and still she managed to win.

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

What was very noticeable for us on the stadium was Hirano jumping and stomping her feet when she was missing like a child.

I think her attitude is too negative and somebody must tell her there are other serves than the shovel serve and other tactics in TT

I can’t see her win anything important anymore and there is a risk of a downwards spiral from here

I read somewhere yesterday that some spokesperson for the JNT said that the third player to represent Japan for Tokyo Olympics 2020 is still very much up for grabs at the moment after Hirano's terrible performance in the group stage. S/he even went on to state that Hina Hayata, Shibata Saki and the rest are working very hard towards that goal. Oh wells. Maybe that rattled Hirano, although nothing that was said came off as a surprise.

Harimoto vs FZD.

11:6. Harimoto has the upper hand on FH? WTF?

4:7, 5:7, 6:10, 6:11. FZD fares better on BH, mostly due to Harimoto's misses.

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

Second set very much in favor of FZD but the fight is only starting
