After the game, Zhang Jun, the coach of Chinese team doubles, and Xia Yuze, the coach of singles, both said that although today’s game was hard, the players resisted the pressure of the first game.

“We played hard in the whole game, especially in the first man pair. Malaysia Man pair is a traditional strong team. Although the team is not old today, they are the runner-up in this year’s All-Britain open. We made full preparations before the game, but we still played passively in the game. Fortunately, the players withstood the test and did not give up when they fell behind, and adjusted the tactics in time.” Zhang Jun said.
