"It's really scary!" Thinking back to the performance of the Jamaican relay team in London in the previous life. Even if it was better than the American team, they could only follow behind and eat dust! This is simply not a team from the same planet.
Powell is the foundation. After the emergence of Bolt, this Jamaican relay team has become dominant over any other team in relay events.
And when Blake, who was now at the peak of his strength, joined, the Jamaican team finally became complete and finally broke out of the earth, no longer belonging to a team of ordinary humans.
"Ahem." Coach Tian saw that even Su Feng had nothing to say, so he coughed quickly and took over Zhang Paimeng's words.
"Don't be pessimistic, Blake was an accident. But even before the Olympics, our goal was just to win second place. Even if the Jamaican team is strengthened, it will not have much to do with us.
As for the number of sticks in Jamaica, this research is of little significance now.
Whether it's Powell, Blake, or Bolt, they all have super straight-line acceleration capabilities, and their cornering abilities are also quite strong.
Each of them can fit into any position.
From another perspective, whether it is Powell or Blake, whoever runs first, we have no effective means of checking and balancing, so we don't need to worry about them.
As long as our athletes who run the first leg are mentally prepared, it will be fine.
Let’s just let the American team have a headache with this problem.”
As soon as Coach Tian said this, everyone laughed unconsciously.
This is true. It is the American team that is more concerned about this issue now.
Because the Chinese team only has Su Feng, the most powerful stick, it must be put to the end to hold the line.
But the U.S. team is different. They have two strong bats in Powell and Tyson Gayin. Neither of them is as good as Su Feng, but neither is inferior to Powell. In this case, the prediction of the performance of the Jamaican team is crucial.
In this way, the Chinese team has unified its thinking after this meeting.
The American team will ignore it and the Chinese team will run according to its own rhythm and arrangement. This is the best choice.
Finally, coach Wada, the leader, asked emphatically about Su Feng's physical recovery. After all, Su Feng's weakness after 200 meters was seen by the whole world and is still being discussed. Naturally, they have to be more concerned.
After getting answers from Su Feng and Wang Zongfang that they could compete, they were completely relieved.
It doesn't matter if Jamaica has one more Blake, but if China loses one Su Feng, it will instantly change from a strong contender for Olympic medals or even silver medals to a fringe team with only qualifications. The impact will be huge.
…
August 14, 2012, 8pm.
The London Bowl stadium is brightly lit again.
If there are any spectators who have participated in the events over the past few days, they will feel as soon as they come in that the atmosphere of the stadium is once again more lively than usual. The hustle and bustle is even hotter than the weather in London at this time.
That's because what will be held today is one of the highlights of all previous Olympic Games, and the highlight of this Olympics is the men's 4×100m competition.
A total of 16 teams from all over the world participated in the competition. There were two rounds, the first round of preliminary rounds and the second round of finals.
There are 8 teams in each group in the preliminaries, and the three teams with the best scores advance directly. The remaining two teams with the best scores in the two groups can also advance.
“Hello viewers, what you are watching now is the final event of the London Olympics, the preliminaries of the men’s 4×100m competition.
We saw that the audience at the scene was particularly enthusiastic compared to usual times.
Okay, we see that the first group of athletes has started to enter.
The eight teams in the first group are:
The British team in the second lane.
Lane 3, Team Canada.
Route 4, St. Kitzinevitz Islands.
Lane 5, Chinese team.
Lane 6, Team Jamaica.
Lane 7, Netherlands team.
Lane 8, Brazil.
Lane 9, Italian team.
It can be said that they are all quite capable teams, but for the Chinese team, there is no problem in advancing from this group. The real competitiveness of the Chinese team is in the finals."
Yang Jian's words are indeed correct, but in the previous life in 2012, without Su Feng.
The Chinese team sent Guo Fan as the first player, Yang Jiahong as the second player, Su Bingtian as the third player, and Zhang Peimeng, who had the strongest straight line ability at the time, as the fourth player.
But in the end, the Chinese team still only finished fifth despite the British team being sent off for violation of regulations. In the end, it lost to the French team in the second group in 3.38 seconds and lost the chance to advance to the finals.
qualifications.
From this point of view, Su Feng's influence on this Chinese team can be clearly seen.
With Su Feng, the Chinese team is not only a terrifying team second only to Jamaica in the group, but as long as there are no problems, qualifying is absolute, and it will be super competitive even in the finals.
From Yang Jian's high-spirited and confident tone, people can clearly feel that he is optimistic about the Chinese team in the preliminaries.
But when it comes to the Jamaican team, people noticed something unusual before the game.
Bolt is not here!
"Viewers, as you can see, according to the information we have received from each team in the group, the Jamaican team did not send their strongest player Bolt in the preliminaries this time.
First bat, Nesta Carter.
Second baton, Michelle Frater.
The third baton, Bailey Poole.
The fourth baton, Youhan Blake.
I don't understand this lineup a bit. They didn't even send out Powell.
What does it mean?
Bolt may need to rest. According to the first-hand information obtained by our reporter, Su Feng did lose strength in the last 200m final, but recovered well. Bolt should be the same, but if they want
It’s safer, it’s understandable if you don’t use Bolt.
But even Powell didn’t participate, so what is he trying to do?”
Not only Yang Jian, but most of the current audience can't understand it either.
But when Su Feng learned about the Jamaican lineup off the court, he understood it. I believe those professional coaches can also see it.
Jamaica's lineup is still one of the best. Compared with the current Chinese team, even with Zhang Peimeng and Su Bingtian who are stronger than the previous generation, they are still quite competitive.
If they lose, just think of it as preserving their strength. After all, they will still have to face the American team in the finals.
But if they win, it will be the biggest blow to the Chinese team. If they can't even win as a team, how can the Chinese team win in the finals?
"Ha, since you are so confident, let me show you how powerful the Chinese team is now."
Su Feng, who was still a little tired, originally planned to advance to the top three, so that he could have an extra day of rest.
I just didn't expect that Jamaica looked down upon themselves and the Chinese team so much. If they didn't beat them, the Chinese team would definitely not swallow this tone.
This can be regarded as a conspiracy. For the momentum of the Chinese team, Su Feng will have to use more strength, and the final will be more beneficial to Jamaica.
Thinking of this, Su Feng's eyes flashed with a hint of fire.
If Su Feng could think of this, the other Chinese players on the field would naturally think of it too.
They have been training relays, technical tactics, and psychological warfare for so many years. What has not been analyzed with the coach? These things can be clearly explained about familiar opponents and even the impact of each change of sticks.
They quickly understood what the Jamaican team meant. The second was to look down on the Chinese team. The real purpose was to force Su Feng to use more energy.
Su Feng has experienced eight high-level competitions since the Olympics, and two of the finals were performances beyond human limits.
He is already very tired.
"Jamaica doesn't want Su Feng to have a good rest! Is it bullying others with its deep reserves?"
Thinking of this, whether it was Zhang Peimeng, Chen Zhilong, or Su Bingtian, a ball of fire burst out in their hearts.
They have to fight for Su Feng!
As long as they could hold off the three Jamaicans in front of them, Su Feng wouldn't have to face Blake behind him with 100% of his abilities.
