On May 4, 2024, the badminton Uber Cup continued, and the national feather defeated Japan 3-0 to advance to the final, Chen Yufei, Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan, and He Bingjiao defeated their respective opponents, of which Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan fell behind 12-18 in the tiebreaker, saving two set points to achieve a reversal.
Guoyu has won the Uber Cup championship many times, and the comprehensive strength of the women's team is undoubtedly the strongest, with Chen Yufei, He Bingjiao, Wang Zhiyi, Han Yue four masters, of which Chen Yufei is the champion of the last Olympic Games, doubles Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan ranked first in the world, and Tan Ning/Liu Shengshu, Zheng Yu/Zhang Shuxian are all first-class combinations, and now they have temporarily changed formations, and Liu Shengshu partners Zhang Shuxian to play.
The Japanese team once won the Uber Cup, but there are shortcomings in the current lineup, women's singles Akane Yamaguchi was absent due to injury, Aya Ohori's strength is limited, and Okuhara hopes are in serious decline, but it is the women's doubles Matsuyama Nami / Shida Chiyo and Miyaura Reina / Sakuramoto Ayako are more threatening, which is also the main reason for the coaching staff to split the right, after all, in the fourth set of this position, the arrangement of a fixed lineup is not absolutely certain.
Chen Yufei 2-0 (21-18, 21-15) defeated Aya Ohori, Aya Ohori has never won Chen Yufei in the past, this time is naturally no exception, Chen Yufei 13 consecutive wins over Aya Ohori, the opponent chased the score in the first game and played okay, but the back obviously can't keep up with the rhythm, in fact, Aya Ohori played this position, for the Olympic champion Chen Yufei, it is indeed not difficult, in general it is easier to win.
Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan 2-1 (14-21, 21-13, 23-21) reversed Shida Chiyo/Matsuyama Naiwei, at first Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan was in a very poor state, and the abnormal play led to continuous mistakes, and then Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan found their rhythm, and the decisive game was 12-18 behind a strong reversal, Shida Chiyo/Matsuyama Nami 20-19, 21-20 The two handicap points did not withstand the pressure, and Chen Qingchen's tears after the game were moving.
He Bingjiao swept Okuhara Hope 2-0 (21-8, 21-18), who won the World Championships and Olympic bronze medal, and the record with He Bingjiao is 8-4, but these are a long time ago, in fact, the reference value is not great, the current Okuhara Hope is not He Bingjiao's opponent at all, China defeated Japan 3-0, the first to advance to the final, and the other three players do not have to play at all.
This result is in line with expectations, because the Japanese team lacks Akane Yamaguchi, and there is no ability to score points in the three sets of singles, not to mention Shida Chiyo/Matsuyama Nami and Miyaura Reina/Sakuramoto Ayako are also five or five open, the most exciting is the second set of women's doubles, Chen Qingchen / Jia Yifan almost lost points, it is really not easy to win, Chen Qingchen cried understandably, the national feather is only one step away from winning the championship, and there is the final difficulty.
