After winning the gold medal in the National Games, Fan Zhendong will face a three-front battle in December to participate in the Bundesliga German Cup and the Champions League.

Fan Zhendong wants to make his presence felt in the international arena again this time. The Bundesliga just announced that they have scheduled three home games in December, with Fan Zhendong playing the main role in all of them. The Bundesliga, German Cup, and Champions League are all scheduled without any gaps. To be honest, this pace makes me feel a little out of breath just looking at the schedule. The team had just won the gold medal at the National Games, and the team here was about to move around the world, kicking off one tough battle after another.

In fact, this is not Fan Zhendong’s first appearance in the Bundesliga. He was quite eye-catching in his debut last year. To put it mildly, his performance was hit or miss. He won 5 out of 8 games and failed to win in 3 games. The most famous game was against world champion Falk, in which he played very energetically. As a result, he was upset by an opponent ranked low in the world like Aguirre, which made many people unable to react for a while. In the Bundesliga, similar plots are actually quite common. There are so many experts, and every game may have something new.

Looking at Fan Zhendong’s experience studying abroad, it can be regarded as a real practice in Europe. The style is different and the environment is different. Anyone who plays knows this experience. Winning is a great experience, but losing is even more painful. He himself also knows that every time he makes an appearance, he must pay attention to how to adjust the rhythm on the spot and how to solve shortcomings. Now looking back at his Bundesliga journey in the past year, it was basically all kinds of confrontations, all kinds of attempts, no hiding of wins and losses, and growth through head-on confrontation.

The current Saarbrücken Club has no baggage. It directly stated on the social platform: The whole team is working hard on the home games in December. There were three consecutive battles in this wave, and each one was very tough. Needless to say, in the Bundesliga, it is common to encounter European champions like Moregard. Every time I change my opponent, my playing style and rhythm completely change. Players not only have to think about how to win against the powerful Bundesliga team, but also the German Cup and Champions League follow simultaneously, and their whole body and mind have to be tense.

To be honest, from the perspective of the overall environment, domestic fans and overseas audiences are now staring closely at how Fan Zhendong will perform. After all, when working hard outside, scores are not the only reference. What is more important is whether you have found your place among the experts. Under the intensive schedule, every appearance is a test and an opportunity. Whether he can use all the experience and lessons accumulated in China depends on how he adjusts himself.

For Fan Zhendong personally, these games in December are a touchstone. There are all kinds of opponents, which are both physically and mentally taxing. It is not something that can be easily dealt with in each game. What he has to do is learn from the experience of every game. Even if he loses, he still has to save the lessons. Only by slowly accumulating and interacting with European players and learning more can you make up for your own shortcomings.

This kind of high-density competition, to put it bluntly, relies on hard power to speak for itself. Whoever can withstand a series of fierce battles will stand firm in the end. Chinese table tennis has always been the trump card in the world. Fans actually hope to see Fan Zhendong withstand the pressure with practical actions in foreign arenas and bring some exciting performances. When he truly establishes a foothold on the European stage, he may be able to bring new inspiration to the entire national table tennis team.

Many people will discuss privately that Fan Zhendong's overseas schedule is actually more like a recharging period for himself. Every competition can be a motivation, and every loss should be a test of one's character. With this going on day after day, who can guarantee that it won’t break out on a bigger stage in the future?

In this way, the three consecutive home games in December are very important for both himself and the Chinese table tennis world. It was a good fight, which not only boosted my confidence but also my fans. After all, being able to adapt to so many different opponents and switch from city to environment is not something that all players can easily do.
