Chapter 352 Powerless

"Zhang Guan can still run!" Nadal was surprised.

Not far away, the scoreboard showed the score of the second set, 6-4, and Zhang Guan was still the winner.

In the first two rounds, when Nadal's explosive power declined, Zhang Guan increased his tempo, ran more aggressively, and played a continuous wave of offensives, which made Nadal unable to parry. As a result, Zhang Guan won two consecutive games and also won the second set.

Before the two of them fought back and forth for many shots to win the next goal, but in these two rounds, Zhang Guan won the game cleanly and did not go through a long round of stalemate. Even people who don't know much about tennis can see that Zhang Guan Crown has the upper hand in the situation.

Nadal was originally planning to continue the stalemate with Zhang Guan, but it was completely based on Zhang Guan's offensive rhythm. As a result, he naturally lost the two rounds.

"What's going on? Zhang Guan's running is just like the beginning of the game, and his physical strength seems to be completely exhausted! This game has been played for almost two hours, and the intensity of the game is so great, how can it be possible that he has no physical strength? Consumption? Even if Zhang Guan's physical strength is stronger than mine, it is impossible for him to have such abundant physical strength as he did at the beginning of the match!" Nadal couldn't understand why this happened, and when he thought of his 2-0 When I fell behind, my heart became more and more anxious.

...

In front of the TV, Federer sighed: "It seems that Nadal will not be able to achieve his three consecutive French Open championships."

"Although it is 2-0 behind, Nadal should still have a chance!" Mirka said from the side.

"It's impossible to come back. Did you notice that in the last two rounds of the last set, Zhang Guan not only attacked fiercely, but also moved more quickly, which shows that Zhang Guan still has a lot of physical reserves; on the other hand, Nadal , In the last two games of the last set, it was obvious that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm, and his physical reserve was about to bottom out." Federer continued: "The reason why Nadal is considered to be strong defensively is mainly because of his mobility. Powerful, his style of play is also based on his strong mobility, once he can't run anymore, his style of play becomes useless, and that's when Nadal collapsed!"

"Nadal won't be able to run?" Mirka shook his head: "It shouldn't be. Everyone says Nadal is the most physically fit tennis player."

"What I mean by not being able to run is not that he really can't run, but that he can't keep up with Zhang Guan's running rhythm. The core of their tactics is running. In defense, who runs Whoever runs more actively will be more stable in defense, and in offense, whoever runs more actively will be able to suppress the opponent more easily." Federer said while his expression became serious, and he continued: "So this In this case, if one side slows down, his defensive strength will decrease, and his offense will lose its oppressiveness. On the other hand, his opponent can complete the defense relatively easily and exert more pressure on offense.”

"That's why Nadal lost so easily in the last two rounds?" Mirka asked.

Federer nodded: "And I think it may be just the beginning. In the third set, Nadal may not last so long! Zhang Guan should be able to celebrate his second Grand Slam title soon!"

...

From the beginning of the third set of the two sides, Nadal tried to launch an attack. The rest between the two sets allowed Nadal to recover and some physical strength, and the total score was 2-0 behind, which encouraged Nadal to work harder and fight as soon as possible. Come back the score.

In the next few rounds, facing Nadal's counterattack, Zhang Guan once seemed a little passive, and was even suppressed by Nadal in his own serve, but Nadal still couldn't break through Zhang Guan's defense, and still didn't get a break. .

In the first six rounds, both sides successfully kept their serve, but the continuous counterattacks also exhausted Nadal's physical strength again. But Nadal also knew that he had to keep up with Zhang Guan's rhythm. With their two styles of play, if they couldn't keep up with the game rhythm, they would collapse instantly.

"Come on! Be sure to come on! Run faster!" With a strong willpower, Nadal forced himself to speed up and try to keep up with the rhythm of the game.

However, Zhang Guan on the opposite side didn't stop at all. At least from the surface, Zhang Guan didn't show signs of exhaustion.

"How can Zhang Guan run so well? He still has so much energy? Could it be that he won't be tired?" Nadal's eyes showed a trace of ferocity, he couldn't figure it out, he was already exhausted like a dog, and Zhang Guan on the opposite side is still in full condition.

The score of the third set came to 4-4. Judging from the situation, the two sides are still in a balance, but in fact, Nadal is already holding on to this high-intensity running.

"I am the king of clay, I want to win the French Open three consecutive times, how can I lose!" Strong belief supports Nadal, his speed has not slowed down, and his forehand is still strong.

Zhang Guan once again rushed forward, advanced the receiving point, quickly changed the rhythm of offense and defense, and attacked Nadal's gap. Similar to this tactic, Zhang Guan also used it many times in this game. For Nadal Not unfamiliar.

Zhang Guan's running tactics are indeed very powerful against ordinary professional players, but against players of the level of Federer or Nadal, of course, it is impossible to win with one blow, at most it is to gain some advantages. With Nadal's defensive strength, Zhang Guan's running tactics are like a big bundle of straw. It looks huge, but the weight is within an acceptable range.

But sometimes, the last straw can crush a camel, let alone a whole bale of straw.

And this was not the last straw, Zhang Guan caught the ball early again, changed the rhythm of the shot again, and threw another bundle of straw to Nadal.

Finally, Nadal, the strong camel, couldn't hold it anymore, and he was about to fall...

...

Now the score of the third set is 5-4, Zhang Guan leads and has already got the match point, and Nadal's serve is going on.

Nadal was behind in his serve, and before that, the two sides had experienced three equal points.

The score was Zhang Guan taking the lead, and on the court, the two were using forehands to stalemate.

Nadal used his forehand to attack Zhang Guan's backhand, and Zhang Guan also used his forehand to attack Nadal's backhand. Facing his opponent's attacking his own backhand, both sides relied on their fast running to reach the point where they could use their forehand to catch the ball. position, and then launch their own attack.

At this time, the game has become a contest of speed. If whoever takes the lead and cannot run to the position where he can use the forehand to catch the ball, he can only be forced to use the backhand to catch the ball, and once he is forced to use the backhand to catch the ball , the next thing he will face will definitely be endless suppression until he loses the ball.

Finally, Nadal was a little slow in receiving the ball, and he was forced to use a backhand to catch the ball. Of course, Zhang Guan could not miss this opportunity, and began to suppress violently without hesitation.

"Oops!" Nadal knew that if the ball was lost, he would lose the entire game and lose his three consecutive French Open titles!

"This time it's really powerless!"
