Dominate the badminton world

Chapter 178 The Only Hope

Wang Yu's 540° swivel smash can be said to be an unprecedented smash in the history of badminton, and it is very likely that it will be included by the World Badminton Federation as one of the top ten shots of the year.

In the eyes of the audience, Wang Yu's goal should be a tribute to Posana.

Amidst the extremely intense cheers of everyone, Wang Yu threw a small ball in front of the net to Posana.

Posana stepped forward to pick the ball, and after being kicked by Wang Yu, he smashed the ball in the air, killing the badminton on the rubber under Posana's feet.

Bosana looked a little dazed, as if he hadn't reacted to Wang Yu's shocking smash just now, he was really shocked, he didn't expect that badminton could be played like this.

"At the end of the first game, Wang Yu won, 21 to 11."

Posana walked down to drink water. Because of his good physical fitness, he was not too tired. His eyes gradually brightened, as if he had discovered a new continent.

"It turns out that badminton can still be played like this..." Bosana's eyes became brighter, as if he had found a direction on the way forward.

In the second game, Posana was obviously much more peaceful. Although there were still a lot of fake moves and fancy catches and kills, compared to the first game, it was much better.

After Wang Yu saw it, his face showed relief. He felt that he had done a good deed by helping others to correct their attitude during the competition, which made him quite happy.

In the end, Wang Yu sent Posana away 21-8 in the second game.

"Thank you!" Posana excitedly stepped forward to shake hands with Wang Yu, with a look of gratitude on his face, and thanked Wang Yu in broken Chinese.

Wang Yu nodded slightly, seeing that Bosana was so grateful for his actions, so he made up his mind that in future games, if his opponent's style of play was wrong again, he would try his best to help his opponent correct it.

"That's right. The game is serious, so it can't be a joke." Wang Yu nodded slightly, shook hands with the referee, and walked off the field.

After defeating Posana, Wang Yu successfully advanced to the top 8.

There are a total of 8 games today, all of which were played before the evening, and Du Pengyu also successfully entered the top 8.

Wang Yu's opponent in the top 8 is also an Indonesian badminton player named Ajay Jayaram. He is 26 years old and is a senior badminton player.

After a few days of competition, Wang Yu basically recovered to his peak condition, and even made some improvements. On the second day, Wang Yu followed the team to the stadium to participate in the competition with a radiant face.

The eliminated players were cheering for their promoted teammates outside the court. Among them, Du Pengyu and Wang Yu were placed with high hopes that one of them could win the championship, breaking the record of the Chinese men's singles in the Indonesian competition for more than [-] years. The curse of no champion.

Du Pengyu's match was ahead of Wang Yu's. Du Pengyu's opponent was also an Indonesian badminton player named Dionysus Rumbakar, who was about the same age as Du Pengyu and ranked 26th in the world.

Du Pengyu is ranked No. 2 in the world. From the statistics point of view, he has a great chance of winning, but the opponent has the home court advantage. It is hard to say who will win in the end.

Wang Yu and his teammates sat in the rest area designated by the athletes to watch the game. Seeing Du Pengyu enter the arena, everyone cheered for him.

After the start of the first game, Du Pengyu performed fairly well, beating Dionysus Rumbaka 21-15 and winning the first game.

But in the second round, Rumbaka's offense became fierce. In the end, Rumbaka actually fought back with 21 to 15, and the number of rounds became 1 to 1.

Wang Yu and the others looked rather badly at the deciding game. Both Chen Long and Wang Jianming wanted to play for Du Pengyu.

In the end, Du Pengyu lost to Rumbaka 9-21, not even making a double.

So far, only Wang Yu is left in Guoyu men's singles.

Therefore, everyone turned their attention to Wang Yu again. If Wang Yu was killed again, their Guoyu men's singles team would really be wiped out.

Chen Long put his hand on Wang Yu's shoulder, and said earnestly, "Wang Yu, you are our only hope for men's singles now. The next step is to see your performance. You must win."

"Boy Long, what are you doing?" Xia Xuanze, who had just walked over, saw this scene, and immediately scolded: "What did I say? It is taboo to put pressure on teammates before the game, let alone these things."

Xia Xuanze then smiled at Wang Yu and said, "Xiaoyu, you can just play at ease, don't feel any pressure, our men's singles has not won the Indonesian championship for more than [-] years, and this time is not bad."

Wang Yu nodded slightly, but what Xia Xuanze said, Wang Yu could feel the complicated meaning in his heart.

Then Wang Yu shook his head slightly, how could he not understand that Xia Xuanze had something to say, but what Xia Xuanze said was better than Chen Long.

The second match was Li Zongwei's match. Seeing Li Zongwei's impeccable skills and tactics on the court, Wang Yu felt a little stressed.

"During Lin Dan's absence, Li Zongwei can be said to have overshadowed the sky with one hand, and no one can match him. As long as there is a match with him, there is no suspense about the winner of the championship."

"When Lin Dan withdrew from the competition, the championship already belonged to Li Zongwei."

"Gade is retiring, Taufik is about to retire, and Lin Dan is retiring again. Naturally, no one can stop Li Zongwei."

Soon Li Zongwei won two games and easily advanced to the top 4.

After the morning game, Wang Yu and the others ate lunch in the athletes' cafeteria, and then went to the athletes' lounge to rest. At [-]:[-], everyone accompanied Wang Yu back to the arena to cheer for Wang Yu.

"Xiao Yu, take it easy and don't stress."

"come on!"

"Wang Yu, you are the best, we believe in you."

"Don't worry, I will play hard." Wang Yu carried the expectations of all the players, carried the ball bag, and was ushered into the arena by the beautiful Indonesian staff.

Indonesian player Ajay Jayaram was also led into the arena by the staff at this time. He was as tall as Wang Yu, but his body looked thinner than Wang Yu's, and his skin was very dark, just like a black man.

After placing the ball bag, Wang Yu and Jayaram picked the side first, and then began to warm up with the high and long ball.

"I am not comparable to the two paranoids you met before. You are just a newcomer, so you cannot defeat me..." Jayaram did not think that Wang Yu could pose a threat to him, and Wang Yu was able to break through. In the top 8, he just thought Wang Yu was lucky.

Seeing that Wang Yu and Jayaram's warm-ups were not far behind, the referee signaled that the two could compete.

Wang Yu took the warmed-up ball and exchanged it with the serving referee for a new one, and then went to the serving position to get ready.

"Ladies and gentlemen, on my right, Wang Yu, China, on my left, Ajay Jayaram, Indonesia, Wang Yu serves, the game starts, 0-0."

At the moment when the referee announced the end, Wang Yu lightly threw a small ball in front of Jayaram.
