It is a tradition for Japanese players to cry.

On March 7, Beijing time, recently, the Japanese table tennis world is holding a national trial, with the aim of selecting players to team up for the 2022 World Table Tennis Championships. At present, many famous Japanese women table tennis players have lost, including Ishikawa Kasumi and Ping Ye of Miyuki, who lost to Muhara of Hayata Hina and Bai Weiling respectively. Miki It?, the first active Japanese player, also lost. She lost to a younger player and missed the quarter-finals. However, unlike Ishikawa Kasumi and Ping Ye of Miyuki, Miki It? won the women's singles medal at the Tokyo Olympic Games, and has already locked a place in the team competition of the World Table Tennis Championships in advance.

However, for Miki It?, as the first player in Japanese women's table tennis, losing at home is still unacceptable. Miki It? cried after the game, and the Japanese media released relevant interviews. Miki It? looked sad: "Before the game started, I felt I couldn't exert my strength and didn't know how to score. Then I was puzzled by my opponent's tactics, and I felt that I couldn't limit my opponent's score, which was incredible. After the game, my feet are failing, my brain is in a mess and I can't think. I think it's ridiculous. This is the first time I have such an unreasonable feeling in a domestic competition. "

Obviously, Miki It? was confident in his position in Japan, but he lost to a young player in the end. I cried after the last game of Ito in Meicheng, or at the Tokyo Olympics. At that time, Meicheng Ito was defeated by Sun Yingsha of China twice, with a total score of 1-7, and one of them was swept away, so Meicheng Ito had no strength to fight back. Finally, Miki It? won the bronze medal of 1 gold 1 silver 1 at the Tokyo Olympic Games. His personal achievements made the history of Japanese table tennis team, and he was the first player to do so. Only Sun Yingsha, who lost to China table tennis twice in a row, made Ito Miki look unwilling and cried directly after the game.

Now Ito Mikei is crying again, which is completely different from before. Losing to the powerful Sun Yingsha is unwilling, but losing to Japan makes Ito Mikei even more ashamed.

It is worth mentioning that Mikei Ito's development today is completely in line with the evaluation of table tennis star Zhang Yining, and will not develop to a certain age. In the past, Zhang Yining analyzed Ito Meicheng when explaining, and evaluated Ito as "Little Fukuhara Ai". His early ability is OK, but he gradually stops developing, which will not pose any big threat to table tennis in China.

After the Tokyo Olympics, Miki It?'s personal performance really went downhill. In the singles event of the World Table Tennis Championships, Miki It? stopped in the quarterfinals of women's singles and lost to Wang Yidi of China. He didn't even make it to the semi-finals. Later, Miki It? didn't register for the World Cup finals. Now back in Japan, Miki It? has lost to an unknown teenager, and the whole development trend is declining, which has failed to live up to his original promise of "beating more China table tennis players". It can be said that at present, Mikei Ito is not only inferior to Sun Yingsha, but also has no advantage compared with other players in the first team of Guoping. Losing to Wang Yidi in the World Table Tennis Championships is a proof.

In recent years, in the world table tennis world, Japanese table tennis has trained a group of powerful newcomers. Miki It? is one of the representative figures, once compared with Sun Yingsha, and evaluated by the media as two opponents who "lit up for a while". Only at present, Ito Miyoshi seems to be far behind Sun Yingsha. Little devil is a player ranked 1 in the new world, and he is still making progress and has unlimited room for development. Ito's late development seems to be a little weak. Enter a stagnation period.
