And as the game progressed, it started to rain more and more heavily, without stopping at all.
"This rain... won't keep falling," Zhou Bing said, "I don't want to go out in the rain."
"Then I advise you to be prepared for this." Zhao Haohuan said after hearing this: "It is estimated that it will not stop until the evening."
"How do you know? Gou Huan! Are you the Thunder God or the Lightning Mother?" Zhou Bing complained.
"I don't mean anything, I just watched the weather forecast on the local TV station." Zhao Haohuan said calmly, but Zhou Bing was a little embarrassed to get off the stage.
However, rain can indeed easily affect your performance.
Especially the accumulation of water after rain makes people feel even more uncomfortable.
Although spike shoes are theoretically not afraid of rain and slippery tracks, you can see that there are several world-class records set on rainy days, almost none, and very few. This is especially true for sprint events. This is
Explain...actually, it still has an impact on rainy days.
And luckily it's summer now.
There will be no low temperatures after rain, otherwise it will also affect the athletes' competitive state and mentality.
The star figure recommended in this competition, the French men's triple jump star Tamgo, seems to be the biggest victim of the rain battle. His best score in the first three jumps was only 15.55 meters, and he did not even make it to the top six finals.
Entering. On the contrary, Idowu from Kitty Eagle Country won the championship with 16.67 meters.
American player Mesnil won the men's pole vault championship with 5.52 meters. Diamond League points leader Lavigne and German Moore made a hasty attempt and failed to even make a single attempt. And today's number one in women's track and field, Croatia
High jump genius Vlasic was obviously not used to fighting in the rain. She only jumped 1.90 meters and finally won the runner-up. Swedish player Tregaro won the championship with 1.94 meters.
In addition, in other men's competitions, Varinar won the men's 400m championship with a thrilling victory over Jamaican Gonzalez in 45.13 seconds. Gonzalez won the runner-up in 45.16 seconds, and South African blade fighter Pistorius
Si finished fifth in 45.69 seconds, which was 0.14 seconds short of qualifying for the London Olympics.
Puerto Rico's Coulson won the men's 400-meter hurdles championship in 48.50 seconds, while South Africa's Van Zyl, who currently ranks first in diamond points, only ranked fourth. Kenyan player Yego won the men's 800-meter championship in 1 minute, 46.57 seconds.
Ethiopian athlete Gebre Meskel won the men's 5000m championship in 13 minutes, 05 seconds and 22 seconds.
This obviously reflects a problem...
In fact, most of the world's famous generals are not used to fighting in the rain.
This is not just a problem for Chinese athletes, it is a problem for athletes all over the world.
Therefore, if you can still perform stably in a game in the rain, you will be an absolute strongman, with absolute strength and absolute courage.
Among the straight track athletes known so far, those who clearly stated that they are not afraid of wind and rain are Usain Bolt and Liu Xiang.
As long as it rains, these two people's performance will hardly suffer any major decline. But at this time, others have begun to decline significantly, and naturally they will wax and wane.
The stability of fighting in the rain is also very important.
Because you actually can't guarantee whether it will rain during the game.
Moreover, rain is originally a "special test" for outdoor fighting.
It increases the unknown and fun of the game.
Today's 110-meter hurdles are arranged in the front. After all, this is not a magic city. In America, sprint events are more popular.
The heat is higher.
Even though it was a one-shot, Liu Xiang's team is still struggling with whether to play or not.
"I think it's better not to play." An assistant coach of the Xiangzhi team expressed his opinion: "Brother Xiang has never been tested in this situation after being injured. I think it is better to be conservative. The current Brother Xiang can't stand it.
If there is a storm or an accident occurs, no one will be held responsible."
This statement was obviously approved by the vast majority of the Xiangzhi team members.
Even Sun Haiping actually supported this opinion.
After all, Beiao has never run in such heavy rain after returning from injury. Although it seems that Liu Xiang has been recovering step by step, getting better and smoother step by step, even a little beyond expectations, but...running in the rain is still
first.
Even when training, we try to avoid injuries for the sake of the probability of injury.
Besides, "eight to seven" has never been practiced in the rain.
Too many factors.
And there are mostly disadvantages.
No one wants Liu Xiang to have problems here.
Ralph Mann did not speak, because he had agreed to listen to him on Ersha Island, and Sun Haiping would make the decision outside Ersha Island.
However, when facing Liu Xiang, Sun Haiping has long been "both father and teacher", and has long gone beyond the ordinary master-disciple relationship.
In addition, the cultural construction of Ersha Island is based on Toyo Shuyu's "upstream and downstream communication principles". It is rare to see a head coach here who doesn't care about the opinions of athletes at all.
This is also what Toyoki Yong needs.
This is also what Su Shen needs.
An enlightened and open base culture will allow him to flex his muscles and embed his own things that transcend the times as much as possible.
It is embedded in Ersha Island, the number one track and field holy land in China and even in Asia.
Su Shen didn't say anything. This kind of thing is not an OW competition. He will not provide opinions at will. Moreover, he also knows that his current status in Ersha Island can be called the soul. If he speaks, he will definitely be regarded as the biggest
Please refer to authoritative opinions.
So he just listened to Liu Xiang's team.
See how they handle this emergency problem themselves.
Although Su Shen knows...
Sooner or later you have to take this step.
This is a big step in courage and confidence, a big step in re-entering the world's top champions.
The real world champion after all.
Absolutely no hesitation.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, what the team said is not unreasonable. Liu Xiang has never been injured after a rainy game.
Especially when it rains so hard.
It has already been a moderate rain.
If this rain is like the last time, it will not stop until at least the 100-meter final, that is, at the end.
Now, it won't stop.
Just light rain.
This rain.
Not too small.
what to do?
In the end, everyone still has to look at Liu Xiang’s own opinions.
He is the real core of the Xiangzhi team.
After all, this team is named after him.
Liu Xiang glanced at everyone. He knew that these people cared about him very much and had accompanied him through the troughs. They all hoped that he could climb to the top again. They didn't want anything to go wrong with him.
But after thinking for a while, he still expressed his thoughts.
"I still want to play."
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted fierce reactions from the members of the Xiangzhi team.
"Brother Xiang, you have also seen that problems have occurred in so many previous projects because of this rainy day, and we don't know if they will continue to be bigger in the future. Anyway, we can't create any good results, so why do we persist?
"
"It would be serious if you get hurt."
"I still don't recommend playing. The risk factor is too high and uncontrollable."
But Liu Xiang also has his own thoughts, that is, as a champion, as a person who wants to avenge the Olympics again.
Especially in the current situation, he is going against the wind. In fact, not many people are optimistic about him.
This is true whether it is the outside world or the industry.
In fact, he didn't...never doubt himself.
It's just that the whole team is counting on him for something, and he can't say anything inappropriate.
I can't reveal any of my worries and timidity.
Not at all.
That being the case.
If you don't take this step, you won't be able to conquer your own heart.
"I know everyone is doing this for my own good, but I want to ask you a question..."
Liu Xiang looked at everyone present and said seriously: "If I were still the champion Liu Xiang, would I be afraid of rain?"
"Am I afraid of playing games in the rain?"
"Would I give up because of a small difficulty?"
Everyone was silent.
Because everyone knows what Liu Xiang was like in the past.
That is definitely...a golden legend.
High-spirited and confident from the inside out.
Don't tell me it's raining.
He will play even if it hails.
Because these are all challenges for the champion Liu Xiang. If you are a champion, you must accept the challenge, choose the challenge, and do not avoid the challenge.
"Xiao Tian, you are here too, what do you say?" Everyone knew that Liu Xiang could not be persuaded, and Liu Xiang's words were not unreasonable.
If you want to win the Olympic championship, you must first restore your championship mentality.
There is nothing wrong with either.
It’s just a matter of different choices.
One is the choice of the people behind the scenes.
One is the choice of the athlete himself.
"Axiang, as long as Xiaotian agrees, I have nothing to say." Sun Haiping looked at Su Shen and said.
In fact, Su Shen didn't want to step forward and take over the job, but he also knew that in this situation... except himself, no one could take the shot.
Su Shen thought for a while and realized that Liu Xiang broke 13 seconds again after his comeback in the previous life, which happened to be the rainy day race in the Magic City.
Yang Jian also said at that time, "Fighting in rainy days tests the athletes' special technical abilities."
I'm talking about this shot.
therefore.
It’s not like there’s no “experience” to look up.
The key is that Su Shen also believes that the recovery system he has rebuilt for Liu Xiang will definitely be better than before.
Much better.
Since there are no problems with the recent physical test.
Then...why stop it?
As someone who wants to be on top again.
First of all, your mentality must be restored to the level of a king.
Pick and choose.
To be afraid of this and take this into account is not the demeanor of a king.
As a super grand slam runner in the 110-meter hurdles, Liu Xiang possesses the temperament of a king.
"I think it's fine as long as Brother Xiang thinks there's no problem."
"Besides, rainy days are Brother Xiang's 'home field', right?"
"Brother Xiang, how can the golden scale be a thing in the pond? It will turn into a dragon when it encounters the storm."
"It's just right for a rainy day."
"Okay!" Liu Xiang saw Su Shen saying this to support him, and also said such a passionate congratulations before the game.
What else can you say?
The pride of the world record holder suddenly rose.
After all, he is only twenty-seven years old.
He is still a young man in a physical sense.
Not middle-aged and elderly people.
He stood up immediately and said loudly: "Then I will definitely not be able to live up to your pre-game congratulations."
"This is a game."
"Just let me see how Oliver's attacking skills in the rain are."
…
The game scene.
Seeing that Liu Xiang had already started to warm up for the entrance, some people were still worried: "Is this...appropriate? Is it really okay? Director Sun?"
"What else can I say." Although Sun Haiping was a little worried, but since this is Liu Xiang's own wish and Su Shen's support, as a coach, he cannot break his promise, and he has the advantage that...since
Things that have been decided.
I won’t think too much about it and will support it to the end.
"Since Ah Xiang has chosen to play, we have agreed. All that remains is our full support."
"Don't have any other distracting thoughts."
"Okay." Seeing Sun Haiping saying this, the team members could only nod silently, because Sun Haiping's status in the team can be said to be second only to Liu Xiang himself.
Very authoritative.
Tianchao Sports Channel.
"Now Liu Xiang appears on the field." Yang Jian said: "I originally thought he would not appear if it rained, but it seems that Liu Xiang's team believes that Liu Xiang is ready to fight in the rain."
"I didn't expect that Liu Xiang would actually come out for this one." Chen Haijian said: "This one, it's still raining heavily."
"Okay, the athletes have begun to appear. This one is mainly about the showdown between Liu Xiang and Oliver."
"The rest of us are not enough of a threat."
"I hope the third match between Liu Xiang and Oliver this season can have a good result."
At the scene, Oliver was a little surprised to see Liu Xiang actually come out. Maybe his team predicted that Liu Xiang would not appear.
"Liu." Oliver said with a victorious look in his eyes: "You are very brave, but in this game, you have to accept two consecutive defeats in the United States."
"That's not necessarily the case." Liu Xiang said with a smile: "My performance on rainy days is basically undefeated."
"Then let's give it a try." Oliver said.
"Okay, let's give it a try." Liu Xiang also nodded in the rain.
"on your marks."
"set."
The electronic password has already sounded. In the live broadcast footage, Liu Xiang's eyes passed through all the fifth railings.
The rain poured down, hitting the palms of his hands that supported his body.
"Let us wait for these anticipated thirteen seconds." Yang Jian also lowered his voice and stared at the live broadcast signal.
Bang————————————————————
"Game start."
"Liu Xiang's startup response is relatively fast."
"Quickly go to the first column."
"Liu Xiang is in the lead."
"Everyone is constantly adjusting their status in the first three columns!"
"Oliver is in second place, Merritt goes forward!"
"Liu Xiang, stay in shape!"
"Liu Xiang takes the lead!"
"Final sprint!!!"
With this shot, Liu Xiang found that he was still in first place after passing the last hurdle.
Suddenly, his heart once again thought of Su Shen's words before the game————
Rainy day.
It is suitable for transforming into a dragon.
Is not it.
When faced with a storm, he transforms into a dragon.
This rain battle!
I want it!!!
“Press the line with all your strength!!!!!!!!!!”
“12.99s!!!!!!!!!!!”
"Liu...Liu Xiang, ran into thirteen seconds again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Liu Xiang ran into thirteen seconds again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"This is the first time since the North Olympics that he ran under 13 seconds again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"The wind has calmed down and the rain has stopped!"
"Liu Xiang is back!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Liu Xiang is really back this time!!!!!!!!!!"
No words can compare to Po Shisan in this rainy battle!!!
And compared with the return in the World Championships, this one broke 13 seconds, which seemed to be a real recovery.
Because everyone knows that the top line of the 110-meter hurdles is to break thirteen seconds!!!
Sun Haiping and the others had a sullen face and were a little nervous all the time on the sidelines.
Immediately after seeing the results, everyone jumped up.
Su Shen watched Liu Xiang take off his clothes in the rain.
It seems to overlap with him in memory.
He couldn't help but smile slowly.
Welcome back.
Brother Xiang.
PS: Please vote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Brother Xiang returns to thirteen seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
