On February 23, the 2025 Table Tennis Shenzhen Asian Cup will be over! Wang Chuqin won the men's singles championship of the Asian Cup, and Wang Manyu won the women's singles championship! In this competition, the Chinese team won 6 medals.
However, it should have been a joyful thing, but after the match, during the interview and speech of the women's singles champion Wang Manyu, the fans in the audience were crazy and insulting her, and the words of the scolding were unsightly.
What's going on here? Why are you not convinced by Wang Manyu's victory?
Wang Manyu won the match
On the evening of February 23, the 34th Asian Cup Women's Singles Finals was ushered in, both sides are our national table tennis team, one is Sun Yingsha of the world and the other is Wang Manyu of the world two, you must know that Wang Manyu has lost Sun Yingsha six times in a row in recent years, so the audience actually expected the result of this game.
But the result was unexpected!
Wang Manyu and Sun Yingsha are the core strength of the "new generation" of Chinese women's table tennis, they temper each other in daily training, and fight together for national honor in international competitions.
Wang Manyu showed an extremely good competitive state in the game, her serve was very varied, and the landing point was tricky, which often made Sun Yingsha fall into passivity in the return link.
In the phase of holding the ball, Wang Manyu's forehand attack is full of power, rich lines, and the twisting and pulling of the backhand and holding are even more stable and strong oppressive, she is engrossed in every ball, her feet move quickly, and she can always accurately predict Sun Yingsha's return line, so as to prepare in advance.
On the other hand, Sun Yingsha, perhaps affected by the opponent's strong aura, or her own state was not at its best, she seemed a little restrained in the game, her offensive rhythm was disrupted by Wang Manyu, and her mistakes were more than usual.
In the face of Wang Manyu's fierce offensive, although Sun Yingsha resisted stubbornly, she never found a way to break through in the handling of key points, and finally Wang Manyu won the game with a disparity of 4-0 and won the women's singles championship.
Wang Manyu was boiling when she won the victory, she got her own glory, for this championship, Wang Manyu didn't know how much sweat and effort she had put in behind her, and this moment finally paid off.
The fan circle culture applauded
However, something unexpected happened, when Wang Manyu stood in front of the camera and was about to deliver an acceptance speech, the audience shouted Sun Yingsha's name in unison, which made Wang Manyu very embarrassed for a while.
This is completely the "fan circle culture" into the sports world, Wang Manyu, who won the championship, not only did not applaud warmly, but was boycotted by many fans, and did not stop shouting Sun Yingsha's name during Wang Manyu's speech.
For this kind of fan circle culture, Wang Manyu only responded to "I hope you protect your voice", but this kind of response is regarded as a topic by people with a heart, yin and yang everywhere, and when Wang Manyu finished receiving the interview and packed up his things, some fans also ran to Wang Manyu and shouted "play black ball", "It's too bad to give face to teammates", "Why fight so hard" and so on.
The sportsmanship of going all out has become the "ruthless" in the mouth of fans under the wrapping of "fan circle culture", and it is really sad to substitute Wang Manyu's perspective, he went all out to play a good result, but he was questioned by fans who don't understand sports, not only that, but there are also rumors that Wang Manyu used improper means in the game and deliberately interfered with Sun Yingsha's performance.
Not only that, but some big Vs came out to criticize Wang Manyu, thinking that she should not reply to fans, "Scolding the audience is scolding her parents!" "If in the fan circle culture, fans are indeed more important, and some idols and idols rely on the likes of fans to go on.
But in sports, their biggest support in addition to coaches is themselves, they rely on their own strength, countless hard work day and night, if they only rely on appearance to attract fans, athletes may not need it.
Sports media person He Xiaolong couldn't help but speak out for Wang Manyu when he saw such a "fan circle culture", "In the face of this kind of fan, I am really speechless", and it is also accompanied by a video, which is after Wang Manyu won the championship, while waiting for the award, Sun's fans have been expressing their dissatisfaction with her behind Wang Manyu's back, and even questioning the results, and swear words are endless.
In fact, fans should be rational about the results of the game, in sports competition, victory and defeat are the norm, every athlete is eager to win in the game, they have put in a lot of effort, but the result of the game is often affected by a variety of factors, including the state of the athlete, tactical arrangement, on-the-spot performance and so on.
Blaming the opponent entirely for the defeat is not only disrespectful to the opponent, but also disrespectful to one's idol, because it means negating the idol's hard work and dedication in the game, and ignoring his own problems.
The fans' love and support for the idol is understandable, but some Sun fans overreacted in this incident, they were overly involved, and tied their emotions to Sun, as if Sun's victory or defeat was directly equivalent to their own honor and disgrace, which led to their overreaction.
For Sun Yingsha's fans, they should look at the outcome of the game with a more rational and mature attitude, they can feel sorry for Sun's loss, but they should learn from the defeat and encourage Sun to continue to work hard.
At the same time, they should also respect every opponent, recognizing that athletes such as Wang Manyu are also excellent, and their victories are also achieved through unremitting efforts, and in the arena of competitive sports, there is no eternal winner, only athletes who continue to surpass themselves.
On the one hand, sports organizations and media should promote the concept of sportsmanship and fair competition through various channels, so that fans can understand the true charm of competitive sports.
On the other hand, social media platforms should also strengthen the supervision of bad speech, and deal with those who maliciously attack others in a timely manner, so as to create a healthy and harmonious online environment.
In addition, athletes themselves need to keep a clear head in the face of fans' excesses, guide fans to support them in a rational way, and also maintain unity and friendship among teammates.
Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu are not only excellent athletes, but they are also good friends who train together in private, so making such a big fuss will only bring unwarranted annoyance to both of them.
I hope that through this incident, we can learn a lesson, return sports to its original purity and beauty, and let athletes show their style in a more harmonious and positive environment.
