Chen Yufei, who did not give up, helped Guoyu reach the 2025 Su Cup finals, and looked forward to the finals to prepare for difficulties

China's Tokyo Olympic champion Chen Yufei did not leave a knot in the women's singles defeat in the semifinals of the Suzhou Sudirman Cup two years ago, she did not give up after losing the first game in the semi-final matchup of China and Japan in the reenactment of the 2025 Xiamen Sudirman Cup on the 3rd, and finally defeated her arch-rival Akane Yamaguchi to seal the victory 3-0 for the Chinese team in advance and take the lead in the final.

Chen Yufei said that she did not have a knot in her mind about losing to Akane Yamaguchi two years ago, and now she successfully defeated Akane Yamaguchi to score the winning point for the Chinese team.

Chen Yufei defeated Akane Yamaguchi 17-21, 21-9, 21-16 in the third women's singles match, changing the head-to-head record to 13-21. After the game, Chen Yufei reviewed the game and said that although the start was not good, she always maintained her belief and persevered to the end to reap the rewards: "There were still some problems today, there were more mistakes in the first game, and the opponent was more patient and faster. But I lost the first game, and there were two games in the end, so I didn't give up, and I held on to this game relatively well. ”

When asked if the defeat in the Soviet Cup two years ago (to Akane Yamaguchi in the semi-finals) left a shadow, Chen Yufei firmly said: "No, I don't have any knots. There are wins and losses in competitive sports, and losing in the last session does not mean that you will lose next time. It's been so long, everybody's in a different state, I just want to be good in the moment and play well in front of me. Losing only makes me better prepared for the next game. ”

Chen Yufei fell to the ground in celebration

Prepare for the tough finals. Looking ahead to the upcoming finals, whether the opponent is South Korea or Indonesia, Chen Yufei is ready to face difficulties. Chen Yufei said: "Whether it is against South Korea or Indonesia, I think it will be a very difficult match. Including today (semi-finals), although it looks like a 3-0 win, everyone actually encountered different degrees of difficulties on the field. "There will definitely be challenges tomorrow [in the final], but I believe that the whole Chinese team will win in the end, and everyone will give their all and fight for the team."

On the other hand, Chen Yufei has said that she is the "backing of the team", and she further emphasized that this is a reflection of the support of the whole team: "I think everyone is the backing of the team, no matter who plays, everyone's strength is actually about the same. When someone plays, the rest of us have their back off the field; When I played, they had my back off the pitch. It's a team that supports and encourages each other. ”
