In order to make the competition more evenly competitive, the 10 men’s teams in this year’s Heads of State Cup are divided into Group A (6 teams) and Group B (4 teams). The groups adopt a single round-robin format, and the two teams with the highest points will compete in the finals on the last day of the event.
Zhang Yongkun scored 18 points with 100% shooting rate
The Negri Sembilan men’s team, which completed an unprecedented 7 consecutive championships in the last term, defeated the Police 98 to 65 in a highlight match of the Men’s League last night, relying on their fiery touch and the strong overall strength of all 12 players in the team to score points.
Mori’s field goal percentage was as high as 48.7%. Among them, Zhang Yongkun made a perfect 7 of 7 shots and scored a game-high 18 points and 5 rebounds. This was followed by Jiageng’s 17 points and 8 rebounds. Mori’s captain Huang Yihao also had an all-round performance of 13 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists.
In addition, Morio also scored as many as 16 three-pointers in the game, which became the key to their ability to suppress the police from beginning to end.
Overcome the devil’s schedule
The victory in this game not only allowed Morio to win 3 consecutive victories, but also wrote a beginning that fans can talk about.
In the single round-robin group stage of this tournament, the home team Morio faced a super fierce schedule from the beginning, because in the first three rounds, they had head-to-head encounters with Perak, which ranked fourth in the previous year, Johor, which was the runner-up in the previous year, and the Police, which was third in the previous year.
Morio’s final ticket is guaranteed
However, Negeri Sembilan showed the strong confidence of the contemporary kings. They first defeated the 19th hegemonic Perak 98-66 in the opening game on Sunday, then defeated Johor 79-64 on Monday, and then defeated the Police with a 33-point margin in last night’s game. In this “bitter first, then sweet” group stage, they won 3 games in 3 games. The hope of qualifying for the finals with the top two in the group is guaranteed!
You know, Morio’s remaining two opponents in the group stage are Penang, which was ranked 6th in the last year, and Putrajaya, which was fifth in the previous year. They are weaker and cannot pose a threat to Morio.
The Heads of State Cup will usher in a banquet of heroes tonight, which also means that the group schedule is halfway through. After 3 rounds of the Men’s Group A, Negeri Sembilan leads the way with 3 wins, Johor is temporarily ranked second with 2 wins and 1 loss, while Police, Perak, Putrajaya and Penang all have 1 win and 2 losses.

In addition, Wang Minxuan also contributed 13 points and 12 rebounds for Selangor. Zhang Huilin scored 9 points, 9 rebounds and 10 assists, and jointly won Selangor. As for the best performance of Long Women, Dai Jiaqian scored 24 points and 5 rebounds.
