🥌 In an electrifying match at the Chinese Curling League in Yichun, Heilongjiang province, Sichuan Team Two clinched a spot in the mixed doubles final after a commanding 10-2 victory over Inner Mongolia Team Four!
Starting strong with blue handles, Sichuan's Guo Jiaxin delivered a stellar stone that knocked out two of Inner Mongolia's, leaving four of their own snuggled in the House. Talk about precision! 🎯
Inner Mongolia's Tian Linyuan wasn't backing down, though. She skillfully removed two of Sichuan's stones, keeping the tension high. But Sichuan's Yu Feng had other plans. With a slick move, he secured a 3-1 lead for his team after the second end.
The third end was a game-changer! Tian, in a twist of fate, missed the Button and inadvertently pushed one of Sichuan's stones closer to the center. Oops! 😬 This blunder propelled Sichuan to a whopping 7-1 lead.
Sichuan kept the momentum rolling, snagging two more points over the next two ends. Inner Mongolia managed to add a second point in the sixth, but the gap was just too wide.
In a final show of finesse, Yu Feng took out a yellow-handled stone with a clean finish, sealing the deal for Sichuan Team Two with a triumphant 10-2 win. They're now gearing up for the mixed doubles final! 🎉
This victory not only showcases Sichuan's prowess on the ice but also adds an exciting chapter to this season's curling saga. Stay tuned for the grand finale! 💥
