TTF World Cup Macao 2026 - Wang Chuqin Defeats Sora Matsushima 4-3 in an Epic Final

Today, we watched one of the best matches of the tournament at the ITTF World Cup Macau 2026. The men's singles final between Wang Chuqin and Sora Matsushima finished 4-3. The score was 9-11-18-16-11-8-11-13-8-11-11-4-11-8. It was a very close and intense match from the first point to the last. Sora played at an incredible level. He is still very young, but his quality is already world-class. He attacked very early, took risks, and showed no fear. Winning 3 games in a final like this against Wang Chuqin shows how strong he is mentally. But Wang Chuqin proved again why he is the best right now. The second game at 18-16 was the turning point. In that moment, under huge pressure, he stayed calm and made the right decisions. This is what top champions do. Even when he was down 2-3, he did not panic. He adjusted his game, controlled the rallies better, and came back strongly to win the last two games. This match shows the difference between a great talent and a champion. Sora is the future, no doubt. But Wang Chuqin is more complete, more stable, and more experienced. That is why he wins this title. First of all, Sora won 3 games in a row. Sora, please sum up the final. I think both of them played very well against Manyu. It looked like a 5-game game, but in the end, both of us were exhausted and exhausted. Overall, from the 1st game to the 1st point, both of us were very focused and we fought very well. Before the final, I did not think too much about the goal. Every time I played against Manyu, I was in the middle of the audience. Every time I played against him, I was very focused and it was very exciting. So for today's final, I think I should let go of all the pressure and burden and enjoy the game. In fact, from the group stage to the knockout stage to today's final, there have been a lot of tests along the way. How do you feel now? I think I can win the championship in the end. I did not expect to create such a history in the 3rd round before the game. I still let myself enjoy the big stadium and try my best to enjoy every game. But I think from the 1st game to the knockout stage to today's game, I think if I didn't handle one ball well in the first two rounds, I would be out of the game. As I said in the interview, today's game seems to be 4-0, 4-1. Compared to the previous two games, the score may seem to be easier. But in fact, I think I still encountered a lot of difficulties in the process and in the game. And I think Manyu's overall spirit today, including his struggle, even if he is behind in the 3rd game and 4-8, he is still trying to fight with me. Even if he is behind in the last game, he may face a situation where he is about to be turned around. So I think there are still a lot of things to sum up through this trip to the World Cup in Macau. I think no matter how I feel every day, how I feel when I get up and open my eyes every day, I think it's all ups and downs. But I think I'm still very happy. I think I can win this championship in the end. I hope I can win with this victory. And then because the video game is coming, I think it's one of the most important games of the year. So I hope I can move forward with the meaning of this championship. First of all, I think today's final is as tight as ever with Manyu. Maybe it looks like a 4-1 score. In fact, in the first three games, he has scored the key points in every game. And in the last two games, he was a little bit worse. He may be turned around. So as for myself, I didn't expect too many goals before the game in Macau. In fact, I think I'm still very happy to be able to achieve the triple crown. But I think today's performance and performance of Manyu and I have actually developed our best level. And every time it's a more exciting game for everyone. I also hope that I can continue to move forward with this victory. Get free ebook and coaching advices. See you in the next video.
