"Match Point(
"Viewers, you're watching ESPN Tennis and I'm your host, David Sofar, and I'm in Athens, Georgia, bringing you the 2013-2014 National Championship game from the front. Team final."
"It's the Los Angeles duo, UCLA and USC."
"This is also the final meeting between the No. 1 seed and the No. 2 seed this season. It is undoubtedly the meeting of the two best teams this year. For viewers who love NCAA tennis, it can be said to be the pinnacle duel that everyone expects. The outcome will depend on the outcome. Play on the spot."
"Today, the guest who will accompany us to watch the game live is Pete Sampras."
Sampras, who was quietly waiting for his order, skillfully took the topic from Sofar.
"Hey, everyone, I'm Pete. This is already the first time I've appeared this season. I hope the audience won't get too used to my appearance and lose interest."
The opening was a small joke, which successfully made Sofar laugh happily, and then they chatted about the just-concluded women's team final.
In the final, Stella Sampras, Sampras’s older sister, led UCLA to beat the University of South Carolina with a thrilling score of “4:3” and won the second women’s team championship in the school’s history At the same time, it is also the first time since 2008 to reach the top and win the championship again after six years.
For the Bruins, this is undoubtedly gratifying news.

gurgling.
In an instant, all the hot and bustling eyes were focused on the men's team finals—
In the modern history of NCAA tennis, Stanford University once completely dominated the team championship in the second half of the 1980s. In the five years from 1986 to 1990, it only lost the 1987 men's team championship, and all other men's and women's teams The champions are all in the bag.
By the way, it was the University of Virginia and UCLA that broke Stanford's monopoly in 1987. Both teams broke through the blockade and entered the men's team finals.
However, after 1990, for a total of 24 years, no team was able to win both the men's and women's team championships.
What's more, there is no chance of getting close, and there is a serious imbalance in the strength of all the strong tennis teams. Either men are strong or women are strong. Almost no team can maintain a balance in the men's and women's team competitions. Stanford's feat was also considered impossible to replicate.
Until this year.
In the previous semi-finals, everyone was paying attention to the performance of the two teams from UCLA. Now, the women's team took the lead, and the men's team will be the favorites to win the championship. There is a chance to realize it, and the whole of Athens is boiling with it.
Therefore, when the men's team finals kicked off, the crowds on the third floor and the third floor surrounded the entire center court, and the bustling crowds in the bars and restaurants filled the corners of the field of vision. Everyone was looking forward to it. A moment to witness history.
The eye-catching sight and eager anticipation are both motivation and pressure.
"...the pressure and the drive, that was the constant theme of the big games, and it was the mental balance that I had to deal with all the way to the end of my career."
"Judging from the current situation, the Bruins are fully prepared. They know that they are the top seed. They also know that the Trojans will do their best. They also know that they have the strength to beat their opponents. After the women's team won the championship, The whole morale hit a whole new boiling point."
"So, the doubles match was won cleanly and neatly. This should be the best performance of the Bruins doubles match this season."
As Sampras said, the Bruins took the lead in grabbing the double.
and! Three doubles games, only played two games, the Bruins have won two games in a row, one of which entered the tie-break, but in the tie-break, the Bruins shaved their opponent's head and scored "7:0". Hongdi pocketed the victory, and went all out to have the last laugh in the doubles match.
Big score, "1:0".
So what now?
Sofar made a brief summary of the game situation.
"Judging from the pre-match layout, doubles is a game the Trojans must win, but Coach Martin disrupted Coach Smith's plan."
"After coming to Athens, the Bruins have been a doubles team that has been unstable. In the final, when they faced their arch-enemy, they really showed their best form and took the lead."
"Of course, the Los Angeles city derby is always full of variables. Before the last bit of dust hits the ground, everything is possible. Never underestimate anyone."
Sampras seized the gap in Sofar's words and continued to speak.
"Next, the first singles of the two sides will be on the stage. This will also be a match that establishes the momentum of the singles duel between the two sides. It can be called sparks hitting the earth."
gurgling.
gurgling.
The air was burning, and under the focus of the fiery eyes of the audience, two players appeared on the stage one after another—
Gawain VS Saramento!
The two players who shook hands in front of the net~www.mtlnovel.com~ shook hands heavily, their eyes collided with each other, sparks burst out immediately.
Oh oh oh!
Ahhh!
At this time, there was a burst of cheers from the sidelines.
"Friends in the audience, it is the Bruins women's tennis team that just won the championship that appears in the camera. The girls have come here to cheer for the men's team."
Gao Wen withdrew his gaze, looked at Saramento, and said with a smile, "Be careful."
Saramento also replied without showing any weakness, "Sound the alarm, danger is coming."
Come and go.
There was no friendly hypocrisy, the desire to win was on display, and then both sides turned around and trotted towards the baseline to warm up.
In the coin guessing session just now, Gao Wen guessed heads, so he had to take the right to serve and attack first.
The fighting spirit is clear at a glance.
Unlike other opponents, Gao Wenwen has played against Sacramento twice this season. In addition to the relationship between the rivals in the same city, he has studied a lot of game videos and is very familiar with each other, which means that there is no need for the two sides to slowly find out. , you can directly enter the topic at the beginning.
Of course, every game is different, even if the opponent is the same, but a brand new game is a new start, just like the second match between the two sides. The line combinations are all different, and the content of the competition is naturally different.
But because the two sides are more familiar, the temptation in the opening stage also has a different feeling.
Today, in the first game of the game, Gao Wen chose to serve in order to advance the game in his own way and take the lead!
Therefore, Gao Wen played very proactively at the beginning.
