Gawain was breathing heavily, going from active to passive to active to break the situation. At this point, Kei Nishikori's performance had reached its extreme, but he successfully withstood Kei Nishikori's continuous attacks, and finally formed a frontal breakthrough.
The winning point, the entire momentum was released in an instant.
He clenched his fists, sweating profusely, and stared at Kei Nishikori intently. A murderous look burst out from his determined eyes, and his belief in victory was shining.
Kei Nishikori is a little helpless.
In this game, Nishikori Kei's performance was very, very good. He once tied the score at "30:30" and found the feeling of hitting the ball. However, at the critical moment, Gawain still showed the tenacity of a big heart.
He was tough, broke the second zone law, and scored two points in a row to successfully maintain serve.
There was no tie, and there was still no break point. Kei Nishikori was still unable to find the state he expected in his best service game.
After all, Xu Yang is a bystander and can see the crux of the matter at a glance.
"Kei Nishikori's tactics are still too rigid."
"He is now stuck in a short-term rut, using fast tactics to suppress Gao Wen's return, but also compress his own thinking space about the line and placement, because the hitting line is too simple and too repetitive.
He failed to open up the situation and easily fell into Gawain's prediction."
"In the end, Kei Nishikori put himself into a dilemma that he had to break through head-on."
"But the point is, breaking the game with force is not Kei Nishikori's strength."
"Kei Nishikori must stay calm. He needs to enrich his hitting lines and make full use of the entire court, so that he can take advantage of the fast."
"And Gawain."
Having said this, Xu Yang paused slightly, and Tong Kexin immediately answered.
"Wiping sweat."
Xu Yang:……
"Yes, he is wiping his sweat, but it can be seen that even during the break, Gawain is still thinking, and the whole game is very focused."
As a commentary partner, Xu Yang successfully continued the conversation.
"Appearing on the year-end finals stage for the first time in his career, he once again showed his big heart."
"The whole brain is very clear in interpreting and grasping the game."
"In the game just now, Gawain noticed Nishikori Kei's counterattack, so he improved his condition in time, and his entire batting state was obviously stronger. He saved the serve with a winning point and realized the break advantage in the opening stage."
"Gao Wen proved with practical actions that when he appeared at the O2 Arena as a substitute, he was not a real substitute."
Xu Yang could not hide his appreciation for Gao Wen in his words.
Tong Kexin also added with a smile, "In football games, there are many situations where substitutes come on to save the game. Now Gao Wen can also be regarded as a golden substitute, saving the box office market."
What is this... what is it?
Xu Yang remained silent and let these words dissipate in the wind.
The game is still going on.
When the two players returned to the court, Kei Nishikori was still looking for opportunities to get back on track, but the situation was not that simple——
Ordinary players often start from their own serve, not only to regain the initiative to balance the game, but also to regain the batting feel.
No matter what, establishing an advantage through the suppression and calculation of the serve is always the core part of the men's game.
Of course, Kei Nishikori is no exception.
However, Kei Nishikori's ability to control his own serve is still weak. His game often requires him to establish a hitting feel in the opponent's serve, and he will be more comfortable in the return game.
What's more, Nishikori Kei still needs to watch Gawain's eyes.
Gawain also noticed that Kei Nishikori's backhand feeling was picking up. How could he let Kei Nishikori slowly regain his form? The current score seemed to be far ahead, but in fact there was only one advantage of breaking serve. The game
A comeback can happen at any time.
Therefore, Gawain is also continuing to put pressure on Nishikori Kei.
In the last service game, Kei Nishikori launched an all-out attack.
In this service game, it was Gawain's turn to take the initiative.
These two games also became crucial turning points.
After four equal points, Gawain used a wonderful forehand diagonal shot to force Kei Nishikori to return the ball to the net, and successfully cashed in on the second break point.
After all, Nishikori Kei couldn't control his emotions and directly threw the shot——
It's not that I smashed the racket, but I just dropped the racket to the ground. The racket is still intact, and I can continue to play after picking it up.
Since the beginning, Kei Nishikori has never been able to find an effective way to score. It seems that Kei Nishikori's performance was even worse when facing Gawain again.
With such a performance, Kei Nishikori is hard to be satisfied with himself:
No one should and no one will forget that Kei Nishikori is fighting for his chance to reach the semi-finals of the year-end finals.
The premise is that he must defeat Gawain before he can take the initiative in his own hands.
Group B is called the death group because the two giants Federer and Murray are sitting there. Kei Nishikori and Raonic, two strong players who have performed well this season, are also highly anticipated. However, no one expected that Kei Nishikori
Defeating Murray and taking the initiative to qualify is undoubtedly a surprise.
But again, no one expected that Raonic would retire due to injury, and Gao Wen would come on as a substitute, acting as an "unknown factor" and further disrupting the situation.
Kei Nishikori is looking forward to qualifying from the group and reaching the semi-finals. At the same time, he is also looking forward to this revenge battle——
The meaning and weight of this game are far from simple.
The result, however, was not satisfactory.
"ah!"
"Ahhh!"
At the other end of the court, Gawain was clenching his fists to celebrate. In this game and this point, both sides were struggling with each other. The back-and-forth battle could be described as a bayonet with red blood, but in the end, Gawain was still better and withstood it again.
Kei Nishikori's continuous attacks reversed the situation and further expanded the lead.
Looking up, Nishikori Kei could clearly see the belief in victory shining in Gawain's eyes, and the murderous aura all over his body was continuing to surge.
Kei Nishikori was very depressed and aggrieved. He could not open up the game for a long time, and his racket wrestling was already a performance after controlling and controlling.
Huh!
There were boos at the O2 Arena.
奥奥奥!
If Kei Nishikori is dissatisfied with himself, then the audience should be even more dissatisfied——
For four consecutive match days, the London audience could not see a close and powerful confrontation, and they were all swept away. They could not even stay in the stadium for a while, which was really drowsy.
After a lot of effort, we finally had a close fight. People were looking forward to this game bringing surprises. They didn’t care about the number of places or the outcome. The only thing they cared about was a hearty and exciting confrontation. Good luck.
Enjoy the excitement of Huashan Sword Discussing.
However, that's it?
Unfortunately, the boos from the audience were not able to reverse the situation.
