Asian games Naushad Alamian: The new historical medal is the first of its kind in Iran’s table tennis


According to Fars correspondent to China, after the defeat of the national table tennis team against South Korea in the semi-finals and winning the bronze medal of the Hangzhou Asian Games, Naushad Alamiyan said: “We did our best in this match, but the game did not work out and We could not win. In the last game, the Korean team played more easily and had less pressure, considering that their team was 2-0 ahead. In my opinion, if we had won even one game, we would have had a chance to beat Korea and reach the final.

Regarding whether Korea was stronger or Japan, he said: Of course, Japan was stronger, but in this type of competition, nothing can be predicted and everyone is close to each other. Yesterday we won all the games 3-2 and today we lost the first two games 3-2.

The table tennis national champion said about whether he thinks that with this historical medal, views on table tennis will change or not: This should really happen. In terms of facilities in our country, we are much weaker than East Asian teams, but we have a lot of potential. The East Asian teams that enter the hall are followed by a team and staff, and this is not the case for us at all.

Alamian stressed: This is just the beginning and we must do more than this. We have the potential to produce great players because table tennis is a field that deals with intelligence and Iranians are all intelligent people.
