In this era, everyone has this idea.
I value the gold medal quite a bit.
This is why these athletes shed tears during interviews when they did not win gold medals or medals.
This is not a performance.
This is regret from the heart, even with a trace of fear.
After all, it’s the public opinion environment this year.
Just to recognize the medal.
…
Tianchao Sports Channel.
"Viewers, this is China Sports Channel. This is China Sports Channel. I am Yang Jian."
"I am Li Tao."
"The next game is one of the highlights of the Olympic Games, the semi-finals of the men's 110-meter hurdles." Yang Jian even changed his clothes when talking about this game. It can be seen that the higher-ups also attach great importance to this game.
.
The rendering and promotion of the game started so early before the game.
This kind of treatment.
On Tianchao Sports Channel.
Only Liu Xiang has owned it.
Even Su Shen.
Because I have never won an Olympic gold medal.
There are no such perks.
Cut off all the time from the rest of the program and give it to Liu Xiang.
This is Liu Xiang's popularity in recent years.
"It was previously said that Liu Xiang was born in Shanghai at 9:28 a.m. on July 13, 1983, with a sun sign of Cancer, a rising sign of Virgo, and a moon sign of Virgo. Some astrologers predicted that Mercury would be retrograde in Leo during the preliminaries.
To a certain extent, it affected Liu Xiang's performance, but after all, Jupiter and Venus were stationed in the career palace, so Liu Xiang was able to successfully enter the subsequent semi-finals. In the semi-finals and finals, the meteor chart of Mars and Saturn was conjunct, and Mars
It is closely related to the athletes' sports energy, so it will definitely affect Liu Xiang's starting speed and late-stage force, so don't place too much hope on winning the championship."
Yang Jian read out a passage, and Li Tao immediately shook his head and said: "This is completely far-fetched."
"Because track and field is different from other sports, there is no such thing as a tie. Either the performance is good or the performance is poor. So you only need to take one side to get a 50% success rate." Li Tao even scoffed: "
If relying on these things can determine the trend of the game, then why are the athletes training so hard?"
"Just like the so-called burning incense in temples and praying for good grades before the exam, these are superstitious practices. At most, they are just asking for psychological comfort. Otherwise, what would you do to those children who usually study hard?"
"In competitive sports, everything depends on strength."
"You need to practice more." Li Tao suddenly remembered Su Shen's words: "I think what Su Shen said is very reasonable."
"Athlete."
"It's better to have less strange power and chaos."
After chatting casually with Li Tao for a while, Liu Xiang had already started to enter the court to warm up. Looking at Liu Xiang, who was wearing an insulating suit, Yang Jian said: "Judging from the current situation, I hope the opponent in the semi-finals will not be too strong."
"If it is too powerful, it may affect Liu Xiang's subsequent performance."
"Yes, you are right about this." Li Tao agreed: "This time is different from before. Compared with 2008 and 2004, now the finals and semi-finals of the 110-meter hurdles have been placed on one day.
Held. Then we have to consider the issue of physical distribution."
"We can no longer do the same thing as before, giving 90% of our strength in the semifinals."
"That will definitely affect the performance in the finals."
"This year Liu Xiang's main opponent has been replaced by Merritt. Merritt is younger than Liu Xiang, so he will have more physical and recovery advantages."
"So my suggestion is to keep the semi-finals a little more reserved, just like in Osaka in 2007."
"Work hard again in the finals."
Two people were discussing.
The grouping of the competition has been printed on the big screen——
Group 1: Gregory Sedok, Constantinos Duvalidis, Jason Richardson, Orlando Ortega, Lawrence Clark, Wayne Davis,
Garfield Darien, Adrian DeHeart.
Group 2: Aris Merritt, Ryan Brathwaite, Andrew Turner, Xie Wenjun, Dimitri Bascu, Paulo Cesar Villar, Constantin Shabano
Husband, Selim Nuruddin.
Group 3: Dairon Robles, Hansler Pajiment, Lehan Fauri, Liu Xiang, Maxim Linsha, Sergey Shubenkov, Jeff Porter, Emma
Nuele Abate.
"Through the on-site roster, we can see that Chinese players appear in Group 2 and Group 3 respectively." Yang Jian looked at Li Tao and said, "I wonder what Director Li thinks of this group?"
"I think the first group may have the worst overall strength." Since there are no Chinese athletes in the first group, Li Tao stopped there and focused on the last two groups.
"You don't have to look at Merritt, he definitely can't beat this. Barbados' Ryan Bratwitt is also a medalist at the World Championships, so this is also hard to beat." Li Tao looked at the information at hand and said: "I think Xiao Xie, still can't beat him.
The main thing should be to fight for a small Q spot. If you finish third in this group, you will have a chance to advance to the finals."
"Although Turner is the host and Pb is also very strong, this year's sb is not eye-catching. I think Xiao Xie has a chance to compete with him. Followed by Selim Nurudin of Nigeria and Dimitri of France
·Bascu."
"Colombian Paulo Cesar Villar should not be underestimated. He had the ability of 13.20 last year."
"The only ones who are slightly weaker are Russia's Konstantin Shabanov and Jamaica's Richard Phillips. The risk is in the 110-meter hurdles, and the Jamaicans are not as good at the 100-meter track."
"Generally speaking... if Xiao Xie wants to break through, he must do his best." Li Tao said: "There are many people here who are close to his strength, and there are also many people who have higher Pb than him. Even if we exclude Merritt and
Bratwitt, the world championship medalist, there are four more people to fight here.”
"It will be difficult for four people to compete for this spot."
"Especially this is also Xiao Xie's first Olympic Games." Li Tao began to pour cold water on the audience, not wanting Xie Wenjun to fall into verbal and written criticism if he didn't run well.
"It is normal to perform poorly and unstable."
"A naturally big heart like Liu Xiang's is rare in the world."
After Xie Wenjun finished speaking, it was Liu Xiang's turn. Li Tao simply said: "Liu Xiang's state so far this season, needless to say, no one in this group is his opponent. Just look at what Cuba Field Shoes has always said is already 100
%Healthy Robles, is it true or false?”
"If it is true, then this semi-final is still difficult, and winning the first place will not be easy. After all, Liu Xiang is now 29 years old, and he has never experienced such an Olympic schedule where he ran two shots in a row, which will make it even more difficult.
Be careful in the semi-finals."
"But if Robles is not in the condition that Cuba Field Shoes said, then no one can threaten Liu Xiang with this shot."
"His consecutive achievements this year include a super-fast shot that tied his own world record. Looking at history, they are all at the top level." Li Tao may only have one worry here...
It is rumored that Liu Xiang had another injury news before the game.
This scene is so similar to 2008.
This is the last thing he wants to think about.
It may also be the last thing that track and field fans across the country want to think about at this time.
"Although there was news before the game that Liu Xiang seemed to have recurring injuries, it shouldn't be a big problem in the preliminaries." Don't think Yang Jian sounds so relaxed now, in fact, during the preliminaries...
He was more anxious than anyone else in his heart.
I am afraid that the events of 2008 will happen again.
Who knows the injury news that came out before the game, they all feel so similar.
fine.
At the thrilling juncture.
Liu Xiang still successfully completed the first shot.
This made Yang Jian, Li Tao and others feel somewhat relieved.
At least the first shot.
You can't tell what's wrong with Liu Xiang.
Even after the first shot, many people thought it was a rumor and that what happened in 2008 would never happen again.
But only this group of people really know the inside story.
Before Liu Xiang came on the stage, his face was solemn and he was asking the team members to prepare nervously.
"Apply the thermal insulation ointment and be sure to activate it constantly. Don't stop and don't let Axiang's body get cold. Especially the calf and Achilles tendon!"
"Where's the thermal paste prepared by Xiao Tian? Hurry and get it, you still need to use it, one bottle is not enough, keep one as a spare!"
"Today's weather doesn't look particularly good for the semifinals."
"But be sure... don't cause any problems."
"You must resist it."
In the midst of the chaos, Sun Haiping looked at Liu Xiang with eyes filled with hidden worries.
Because after the preliminaries.
In fact, team members and the medical team brought by Su Shen have already conducted examinations, and the Achilles tendon feels a bit more rigid.
Especially the trigger point pain.
It has doubled compared to yesterday.
It’s just Liu Xiang himself.
I have been enduring it.
Don't want to complain about this.
Otherwise, how could it be...
Just a warm-up.
Liu Xiang is already... sweating profusely.
This is not only a worry about the body, but also the torture of nerve pain.
But Liu Xiang is already here.
It's definitely impossible to give up.
Semifinals.
Just finish this shot in the semifinals.
You can close it yourself.
That way, these feelings will disappear.
At least buy yourself a dozen seconds.
should be no problem.
so now.
Be sure to pass the semi-finals.
This is Liu Xiang receiving a massage from a physiotherapist...
The only thought in my mind.
…
Just thinking about it.
Group 1 of the men's 110m hurdles is ready to start.
The athletes in Group 1 stood on their own track.
"set."
Bang——————
There was no doubt that Richardson took first place at the start.
This year's U.S. Championship double-header 13 seconds has completed another evolution. Except for his own teammate Merritt, he is not afraid of anyone, even Liu Xiang, he now wants to compete.
"Game start."
"When it came to the first hurdle, Richardson was really strong. He quickly led all the players."
“Clear lead at the front!”
No one in Richardson's group can pose a threat to him. Whether it is Lawrence Clark or Orlando Ortega, they are far from his ability.
Speaking of which, this group is the weakest of the three groups.
There's no problem with that.
After the past five hurdles, there was no suspense in this game. After the sixth hurdle, Yang Jian even said directly: "Let's see who can get second place in this group."
"Probably Ortega from Cuba."
At this time, Richardson had completely let go of the shot, and his ability really stood out in this group.
After passing the last hurdle, the speed has already begun to completely slow down. With this ability, if this shot is not released, it is estimated that the time to rush over will be close to 13 seconds.
At least it's within 13 seconds and 05 seconds.
Now he has reached the point where he can reach a time of about 13.05 seconds just by raising his legs, which is a huge improvement compared to last year.
call------
Richardson crossed the finish line with ease.
"Richardson finished first in this group with a time of 13.13. Cuban player Ortega finished second with a time of 13.26 seconds. These two players qualified directly for the finals."
The results of the rest of the people also came out——
Third place Lawrence Clark 13.31.
Fourth place: Adrian DeHert 13.42.
Fifth place Garfield Darien 13.48.
Sixth place Wayne Davis 13.49.
7th place Konstantinos Duvalidis 13.77.
The eighth place finisher, Gregory Sedok, had his result disqualified due to a foul.
"Okay, now that the competition in Group 1 is over, let's take a look at the competition in Group 2. In this group, Chinese athlete Xie Wenjun appears." Yang Jiandao: "Looking at the news from the organizing committee, he should be in
Lane 7."
"Currently, the third place in the previous group is Lawrence Clark's time of 13.31 seconds. If Xie Wenjun wants to win the small Q with this shot, he must at least exceed this result."
"That's right, otherwise it would be difficult to win a small Q. After all, the strength of this group is far stronger than the previous group." After Li Tao finished speaking, half of this group's words were printed on the TV screen.
Final track——
Men's 110-meter hurdles second group: Aris Merritt, Ryan Bratwitt, Andrew Turner, Xie Wenjun, Dimitri Bascu, Paul Cesar Villar, Constant
Din Shabanov, Selim Nuruddin.
First Path Selim Nuruddin.
Second Road Konstantin Shabanov.
Third channel Dimitri Basku.
Fourth Road Paul Cesar Villar.
Lane 5 Aris Merritt.
Lane 6 Ryan Bratwitt.
Chapter 7: Thank you Wenjun.
Channel 8 Andrew Turner.
"Xie Wenjun doesn't have an advantage in his level, but it's not particularly bad either. If he plays well, he still has a chance." Yang Jian said: "As Director Li said before, except for Merritt and Bu, this group
Rattwitt, at least 4 people need to fight for the third place in this group."
"The pressure on Xie Wenjun will not be small this time. Let's see if he can withstand the pressure, stand out in this highly competitive semi-final, and stand with Liu Xiang in the final."
Live at the London Bowl.
Xie Wenjun really feels...
nervous.
I used to watch the Olympics on TV and thought there was nothing to be nervous about. Isn’t it just an ordinary competition? Only when I stand here can I clearly feel...
Why the Olympic Games is the largest human competitive stage.
This is completely different from standing outside watching TV.
Due to Liu Xiang's physical condition, Sun Haiping now accompanies the former almost all the time, and does not have much energy to take care of Xie Wenjun.
This is also a very realistic thing.
Who is Liu Xiang who has the chance to win the gold medal?
If Xie Wenjun also has this possibility.
Then he can also get this kind of treatment.
It's a pity that he is still a young man participating in the Olympics for the first time.
There is no possibility of comparison with Liu Xiang.
Fortunately, Xie Wenjun was not stupid. He knew that his master, Sun Haiping, was already in dire straits, so he did not bother the latter. Instead, he found Su Shen before the game and asked for his opinion.
Su Shen was a little surprised.
After all, he is not a 110-meter hurdler.
But Xie Wenjun sincerely asked for his opinion, and now Sun Haiping couldn't spare any time to take care of him. After thinking about it, Su Shen recalled, opened his mouth and said: "I think you have a chance, you don't need to
If you do anything else, you don’t need to think about what will happen to the other runners. You may not be able to outrun Merritt and Bratwitt, but the others..."
"I think you have a chance against them."
"Really? Brother Xiao Tian!" Hearing what Su Shen said, Xie Wenjun felt that there was an extra motivation in his heart. He had also stayed in Ersha Island for so long, and he had seen too much about Su Shen.
It’s magical, and I’ve heard too many myths about God Su.
It's not just about his own personal prowess and personal honor.
There are many other things.
For example, his control of some on-field knowledge and pre-match suggestions.
People who have almost heard of it.
No one does not benefit.
"Of course it's true. You are a person trained by our Ersha Island. All you need to do is remember one of the core attributes of our Ersha Island athletes and bring it into full play."
Core attributes?
What are the core attributes of Ersha Island athletes?
of course--
Based on scientific training, the system has extremely strong stability.
Ability to stably output results.
This is the core attribute of Ersha Island athletes.
Xie Wenjun got this reminder and kept thinking about it silently when he went up. At the same time, he kept in mind what Su Shen said just now. He didn't need to compete with Merritt and Bradtwit in this game. He only needed to run his own race.
If this is the case, then the position of the seventh path.
On the contrary, it's not bad.
Outer paths are less susceptible to the influence of others.
What Su Shen said...
Of course I am not lying to Xie Wenjun.
He wasn't playing the "blessing elixir trick" he played with Hu Kai back then. He was telling Xie Wenjun seriously...
It is enough to use your own strength.
Historically, Xie Wenjun was only 0.03s behind, being squeezed out by the host Lawrence Clark. With ninth position, he almost reached the finals.
And that was him in the previous life.
If you look at his current physical condition and muscle lines, you will know that his physical fitness must have been much improved compared to the last time.
There's really nothing to say about that.
Su Shen just told him to use his own strength and run at his own pace.
Don't think about anything else.
This is enough to get this little q.
…
Tianchao Sports Channel.
"The most competitive person in this group is undoubtedly Merritt, who has been in the limelight in the past 20 days. Merritt is a late bloomer. He only reached this place when he was 27 years old. Four years ago, he was 23 years old.
At that time, he was not able to represent the United States team in the Beijing Olympics."
"Because he was not in the top three in the U.S. Championships selection at that time, who would have thought that four years later he would surpass David Oliver and become the No. 1 110-meter hurdler in the United States."
"set."
Hearing that the electronic password in the live broadcast signal had begun to sound, Yang Jian also lowered his voice and said: "Let us see what Merritt's state is at the Olympics, and we can also estimate how competitive he and Liu Xiang will be in the finals.
fierce."
As he said that, the scene was slightly quiet for a few seconds.
Including Liu Xiang, who was continuing to receive physical therapy in the waiting area, also raised his head at this time and looked at the TV screen in the backcourt area...
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Because he also wants to know.
What kind of performance can Merritt teach in the Olympics?
In the preliminaries, because I was too strong, I couldn't tell what my condition was.
We still have to come to the semi-finals to get a rough idea.
Even in his upcoming semi-finals, which includes defending champion Dai Long Robles, Liu Xiang has completely believed that...
He is the biggest threat to this Olympic Games.
I have changed from being a Cuban to an American.
Sun Haiping was also watching TV with his hands on his hips.
The tension in my heart is no less than that of Liu Xiang.
Bang——————————
"Game start!"
Yang Jian shouted, and the athletes of the 8 levels rushed out from their own track together.
Xie Wenjun's response to this shot was pretty good, better than the previous one, reaching 0.139s, just worse than Merritt.
When Su Shen saw Xie Wenjun's start, he actually knew that he was probably stable. Even if his entire running process did not improve at all compared to his memory, he could already arm-wrestle with Clark just by relying on this starting reaction.
"Merritt reacted very quickly and got to the first hurdle in 7 steps."
"Go to the first hurdle, Merritt...but Merritt hit the hurdles?!" Yang Jian's words were broken because of the sentence. Many people, if they didn't watch the game, would think that he failed at the first hurdle, but
In fact, at the moment when Yang Jian paused, Merritt had already rushed to the second column.
He just knocked down the second hurdle.
Generally speaking, in a rhythmic movement like this, if you hang on or kick the hurdle, your performance is likely to be greatly affected.
Not only Yang Jian thought so, but Li Tao also thought so: "Wow? This is too nervous. Merritt is too nervous, and his technical movements are a bit tight."
“I don’t know if I can still win the first place in the group.”
Waiting area.
Liu Xiang clearly saw that the moment Merritt hung up the second hurdle, Sun Haiping next to him seemed to suddenly clench his fist.
This shows that Sun Haiping now has great hope.
Merritt just couldn't make it to the finals.
In this way, Liu Xiang's pressure will be greatly reduced.
decrease greatly.
But……
Soon they will find that this matter is not simple.
Even because of this kicked down hurdle.
This further highlights the explosive state of Merritt at the moment. Although after two more blues, he was still lagging behind Brathwaite, after the fifth column, as his top speed began to be fully released...
Under the watchful eyes of 80,000 spectators.
Keep starting to transcend.
He constantly began to take advantage of Bratwitt's position in front.
Bratwitt felt a little numb.
how……
Didn't you just hit the fence?
Why did you rush to my side again?
Did you just see it wrong?
Bratwitt saw Merritt catching up with him again, and for a moment he wondered if he had just seen the wrong person.
But the Qiyu people in the broadcast perspective can see it clearly.
Bratwitt was not wrong.
Merritt hit it on the second hurdle.
Can……
He really relies on his superior running ability on the road.
After five or six hurdles passed, I once again caught up with the leader Bratwitt.
If Bratwitt was a little tougher here, he might be able to rely on the rhythm to make Merritt feel the pressure.
If you feel the pressure, Merritt's release rhythm will not be as smooth as it is now.
Unfortunately... Bratwitt simply can't do it.
Even Yang Jian said, "This action has been somewhat deformed" to describe Merritt.
But Merritt still relied on his superb condition and strong adjustment ability to bite back again.
Even this time, Bratwitt was blinded.
Instead, the rhythm was eaten up by Merritt.
"But... Merritt is really strong."
Seeing that Merritt was able to catch up again under such circumstances, Yang Jian had to say: "I completely adjusted from behind."
"Merritt is number one."
"He's more than Bratwitt."
"Look at the results..."
“12.94…”
When Yang Jian reported the results for the first time, he didn't react yet. After he said it calmly, he quickly discovered something was wrong and immediately sighed: "Wow, after running like this the whole distance, I actually ran out.
12 seconds 94?”
Is it because the wind speed is particularly good?
You can take a look at the results given by the anemometer...
The wind here is almost negligible.
This poor tailwind is 0.1 seconds per meter.
The force of this shot is terrifying.
Moreover, he still overturned the hurdle and made many adjustments to achieve the best result.
What's even scarier is...
During slow motion playback.
Both Yang Jian and Li Tao discovered a fact that made them even more unbelievable...
That was before Merritt finally achieved this result.
Actually...
A few more steps were taken.
With almost zero wind speed, I hit the hurdle and ran 12.94 seconds, and there was a small let at the end???
Yang Jian and Li Tao looked at each other.
Both of them saw inexplicable worry and even... fear in each other's eyes.
They are certainly not worried and afraid of themselves.
What they worry and fear is the person who will appear next.
"this……"
"He still ran 12 seconds 94 like this???"
A young man from the Xiangzhi team couldn't hold himself back. After seeing the results, he immediately jumped up and said loudly.
After Sun Haiping saw this result, he forgot to check the performance of his other apprentice Xie Wenjun immediately.
His eyes were completely attracted by Merritt's almost zero wind speed of 12.94 seconds.
I'm afraid it's wrong to say it's attractive.
It should be said that this achievement was firmly nailed.
Knocked over the hurdles, released a small amount of water at the end, almost no wind...
After these conditions are met.
He could actually run 12.94 seconds.
If he doesn't let go of this shot, if he doesn't knock over the fence, if the wind speed is acceptable...
Sun Haiping felt deeply afraid for the first time.
In the past, he never felt that Liu Xiang would be at an absolute disadvantage when facing any opponent.
But after this shot.
After Merritt had such a terrifying shot in the semifinals.
Sun Haiping's mouth didn't close for quite a while.
Wait until his whole face turns around.
He even forgot that his mouth was not closed.
And this expression.
Liu Xiang, who was sitting on a chair and receiving a massage, could see clearly in his eyes.
If his previous judgment of Merritt's status was S level.
Then after this shot.
Merritt's strength has been adjusted to SS.
Even SSS.
It's all possible.
That is to say.
Merritt now is probably even stronger than Robles was in 2008.
Not to mention Sun Haiping was a little frightened.
Liu Xiang himself saw this.
It also feels like there is a huge hand.
Invisibly strangled around his neck.
And it's not even a hand.
It's a pair.
Clutching his throat tightly.
After he became famous, for the first time in a competition...
Feeling such heavy pressure.
It was so big that he felt his stomach churn slightly.
ps: 2 chapters in 1, I won’t write them separately.
Release it directly in one breath.
Xiaozi will speed up updates during the Olympics.
