Chengdu Universiade: Disappointing Loss for Hong Kong Fencing Team in Women’s Epee Team Competition

[Sports Road Chengdu Direct Attack]The Chengdu Universiade kicked off the fencing team competition today (5th). The women’s epee Hong Kong team sent silver medalists She Shanxi and Chen Weiling in the team competition of the Asian Championships, as well as Chen Zhicheng to compete in the round of 16. It’s a pity that Shanxi She, who was “guarding the tailgate”, faced the Korean swordsman and once narrowed the gap to 1 point in the last second. Unfortunately, he failed to stage a reversal in the end. The Hong Kong team lost 40:42.

The women’s heavy Hong Kong team sent two consecutive Asian Championship team silver medalists She Shanxi and Chen Weiling to play. The former won the World Universiade individual competition 3 days ago, and then joined Chen Zhicheng and Huang Chenzhi to appear in the team competition. In the first two rounds, Chen Weiling and She Shanjin took an 8:3 lead, but Chen Zhicheng lost 7 points to his opponent in the third round. After two rounds, his performance was adjusted. The Hong Kong team drew with South Korea 20:20 in the fifth round. Chen Zhicheng lost another 1:6 in the 7th game. She Shanxi “guarded the tailgate” when the total score was 30:34 behind, and narrowed the gap to 38:40 in the last 8 seconds. “She She” took two swords and chased to 40:41 in the last second, but was scored by the opponent’s counterattack within 1 second. The Hong Kong team finally lost 40:42 and graduated from the top 16.

After the top 32 of the World Championships last week, She Shanxi, who once again “guarded the tailgate”, admitted frankly that the endgame situation was not easy to reverse before going into battle. I want to catch up in 1 second. But recently, many opponents are rushing to fight me. When I am behind and have less time, I have to play more cautiously and practice better. No matter which teammate I cooperate with in the future, I will have the opportunity to use these Skills.” She, who won the gold medal in the individual competition, summed up her fruitful trip to the Universiade: “Whether it is a team or an individual competition, I have a lot of experience, because I have never tried to play in the Universiade, and the atmosphere is very good, so I have never tried it. I’ve tried shouting so loudly before. Because the opponents are similar in age, and seeing everyone enjoying the game, I’m so happy.”

On the contrary, Chen Zhicheng (Isis), who performed poorly in this game, wept sadly and needed to rely on other teammates to comfort him, “Because I seldom have the opportunity to clip the team competition. I didn’t perform well in this game. I also know that everyone is a team. I try not to want to The loss of points affects them, especially knowing that everyone chased them very hard. At the beginning, there were many mistakes, because the individual was too tense, and the state was far from the individual competition, and I felt sorry for everyone.” Ying Tai blindly attacked, “Although I relaxed after the adjustment in the second game, I still couldn’t handle it well in the third game. But my teammates have always encouraged me, don’t be too tense, just have confidence.”

The men’s Hong Kong team also played in the round of 16 at the same time. However, Zhou Songxi, who injured his knee in the individual competition, returned to Hong Kong early for treatment yesterday. Therefore, the Hong Kong team temporarily dispatched male heavyweight Yang Junpei to join Chen Lexi and Zhang Kaijun in the round of 16 in the team competition. Zhang Kaijun and Yang Junpei, who played in the first two rounds, were the first to fall behind 1:10. In the third round, Chen Lexi played 9:5 to stop the bleeding. Chen Lexi played again in the 6th and 8th innings and scored 10:10 in the two innings. Unfortunately, the Hong Kong team still lost 22:45 and stopped in the top 16.
