Chapter 288: Violence against violence
Federer looked at the TV with a dull face. At this time, the two players had held 25 shots, and Gonzalez had already fallen.
"Gonzalez seems to be at a disadvantage. Isn't he as good at hitting the ball? Is he physically weak? Going on like this, Gonzalez will lose the ball. How is this possible? There are still people in the world who can have a victory in a forehand battle over Gonzalez!"
Gonzalez's state looks very good. He has exerted that kind of violent forehand to the extreme. However, instead of being knocked down, Zhang Guan has become more and more courageous, and now he has the upper hand in the forehand fight. This at least shows that Zhang Guan is better than Gonzalez in terms of endurance.
"Violent forehand!" Federer murmured, suddenly realizing that Zhang Guan showed a brand new "weapon" in this game.
"This Zhang Guan can surprise me in every game. I remember when he first appeared at the Australian Open, he defeated Rochus. At that time, he was at most a good professional tennis player. And now Zhang Guan is already the opponent I have to face squarely!" Federer thought silently.
...
On the 25th shot, Gonzalez had a sour feeling in his arms.
On the 28th, Gonzalez felt that he could not keep up with the rhythm of this fast shot.
In the 30th shot, Gonzalez finally couldn't support it. His return ball hit the net.
"0-15!" The referee announced the score, and at the same time, the audience also applauded the warm applause. This long 30-beat round was rarely seen in the game.
Gonzalez was not in a mood to enjoy the applause of the audience.
"In the case of using the forehand, I lost!" Gonzalez's face was confused, he had never encountered this situation.
"Thirty consecutive shots, even if I reach the limit, Zhang Guan should be similar to me, maybe it is just strong support, maybe just a little bit! It seems that I am not playing violent enough. The pressure is not enough, the next ball, I want to play more violent, it is necessary to put more pressure on Zhang Guan!" Gonzalez shook his arm, and then served the second ball.
Zhang Guan returned the ball, and Gonzalez on the opposite side seemed to turn into a fierce beast. He waved his racket and aimed at the tennis ball with a fierce blow. He was still his best forehand.
On the sidelines, the photographer Cole was just anxiously away from where Gonzalez was catching the ball. While pressing the shutter, he couldn't help exclaiming, "Oh, this momentum is terrifying! If it is a regular player, you will probably be frightened by this momentum. He is the most violent man in the tennis world!"
Then Cole turned his head and looked across, and found that Zhang Guan was not intimidated by this momentum, but directly greeted him, and he resolutely retaliated. Similarly, Zhang Guan used his forehand.
"Almost forgot, Zhang Guan is the king of track and field. He has seen bigger scenes than Gonzalez. How could he be frightened by Gonzalez's momentum! This may become another big event. Forehand to fight the battle!" Cole thought while adjusting the focus and pressed the shutter.
Things are as Cole imagined, this ball has once again evolved into a forehand battle. Gonzalez was more fierce and more violent than before, but he looked at Zhang Guan. Although he did not yell like Gonzalez, nor did he have the grim expression of Gonzalez, but he was very focused, every time he hit the ball, he seemed extremely determined.
The two sides played another long round of more than 20 shots.
On the twenty-second shot, when Zhang Guan received the ball, he already realized that Gonzalez's hitting power began to weaken. On the next shot, Zhang Guan decisively seized this opportunity and returned with a full blow. Gonzalez's reaction was a little slower, but he missed the point and lost another point.
"How could this happen! I put more pressure on Zhang Guan..." Gonzalez is still confused. In such a high-paced and fierce competition, Gonzalez has no chance to calm down and think. He can only continue to serve.
...
"Gonzalez's situation is not good." Federer shook his head, then said, "After the first point was lost, Gonzalez strengthened the offensive, which is a kind of thing Gonzalez would do. A good response option, he was originally a kind of violent player, but he ignored his opponent, Zhang Guan would also use the same violent play, and played more violently than Gonzalez!"
"Are you saying that Zhang Guan's play is more violent than Gonzalez? But Zhang Guan doesn't look like a person with a very irritable personality!" Mirka said inconceivably.
From the image of the two, Gonzalez has "fashionable long hair" that South American countries like very much, plus a ring of beard on his lips, it looks very sturdy; and Zhang Guan is a common type of track and field athlete. With short hair, the appearance of Asians, he have looked younger than that of Westerners, so he looks like a big boy. He looks younger than Djokovic. This image is not related to "violence".
"You can't look like a man! And don't forget, Zhang Guan is a track and field athlete, a 100-meter sprint king, this is the most explosive sport in the world, how can the fastest person in the world be a peaceful character." Federer smiled, then said, "Gonzalez, a violent man, met the wrong opponent today. Zhang Guan is now a violent system!"
While Federer was saying that, Gonzalez has lost the third point in the game.
Although Zhang Guan is the one who caught the ball, he already has three positions in hand, and he has an advantage both psychologically and in the situation. After Gonzalez used the advantage of serving to get a point back, but when the next ball began to turn into a forehand battle, Gonzalez lost another point.
The score came to 4-3, Gonzalez was temporarily behind, and the right to serve also reached Zhang Guan.
"I lost my serve game!" Gonzalez was angry. He was originally a very emotional athlete. He was easily irritated by his opponents, and his emotions became more obvious after he just experienced excitement.
"I want to attack! A more fierce attack!" Gonzalez was thinking about breaking Zhang Guan's serve.
After Zhang Guan served, Gonzalez did not choose a solid defense but chose to play offensively.
This is the characteristic of Gonzalez. When he is leading, he wants to attack. When he is behind, he wants to attack. In Gonzalez's dictionary, there is only the word "offensive".
So, Gonzalez blew the counter-attack horn in Zhang Guan's serve.
