Chapter 355 The first three players in history enter the finals!
Chapter 355: First in history, three people enter the finals!
The Chinese audience at the scene were all delighted with Su Bingtian's performance in entering the finals.
The second group of players soon took to the field.
This group is led by Tyson Gay and Powell. As long as they have no physical problems and perform stably, there is no chance for other athletes.
In the end, both of them won the game.
The seeded players in the third group were Gatlin and Blake. Naturally, they were the ones who won in the end. When Gatlin deliberately let his opponent down, Blake won the first place and Gatlin second.
The final fourth group was led by Usain Bolt. A talented Canadian rookie, born in 1994, the 21-year-old De Grasse, who ran a super-fast time of 9.75 seconds at the 2015 US-Canadian NCAA Championships, was the second seed.
Zhang Peimeng was ranked third before the game, but the gap between the two was extremely limited.
"This game is interesting. No, I should say it is very meaningful.
Needless to say, Bolt will have no problem getting a spot.
But it’s hard to say which of the two, De Grasse or Zhang Peimeng, will win the spot in the finals.
If Zhang Peimeng can win the promotion spot, it will mean that for the first time in the world's top sprint competition, China has three athletes standing in the finals!
This is extremely difficult. Like the Japanese team, three people once participated, but all three people stopped at the first shot.
Apart from Jamaica and the United States, few countries can achieve this kind of performance of the Chinese team.
In terms of sprinting alone, it is definitely not a problem to say that the Chinese team can tie with Jamaica and the United States.
This means that in addition to traditional table tennis and other sports, the Chinese team has another gold medal event.
If you carefully analyze the pros and cons of the two people.
De Grasse's best time was 9.75 seconds at super wind speed, and Zhang Peimeng's best time was 9.86 seconds. Maybe De Grasse was slightly ahead.
But this is the home court of the Chinese team. As long as Zhang Peimeng can overcome the pressure in his heart, he can definitely perform better than De Grasse.
Furthermore, I still have to mention Su Feng.
Zhang Peimeng has been the main member of the Chinese relay team for nearly ten years, and has trained with Su Feng for nearly ten years.
Although there is no data in this area, they must compete with each other in private.
Bolt, who is the strongest in this group, is the only two super sprinters in the world, and only Su Feng can rival him.
Zhang Peimeng, who has a lot of experience competing with Su Feng, will undoubtedly have an advantage over De Grasse when he meets Bolt.
As for the final result, we will only know after the game.
We see that athletes have already started to prepare."
"On your marks!"
"Set!"
"Snapped!"
"Game start!"
“Zhang Peimeng’s start was as sharp as ever, and he even overpowered Bolt in the first 20 meters!
But thirty meters later, when Bolt began to show his true speed, Zhang Paimeng was inevitably pulled down.
But at this time, Zhang Peimeng was still ahead of De Grasse!
With their chests raised and their heads raised, the two of them began to accelerate on the run almost simultaneously.
With super acceleration ability, the two of them look equally good!
Speed up, speed up!
Sixty meters! The peak speed of ordinary 100-meter athletes, the embodiment of absolute speed. At this time, Bolt has already opened up an absolute advantage over everyone behind him, but Zhang Peimeng and De Grasse behind Bolt are still launching a rapid sprint.
Fight.
Seventy meters, eighty meters!
For ordinary 100-meter athletes, their speed will begin to decline after eighty meters.
Persistence at the highest speed stage, even if it is only 20 meters, takes a huge toll on the athletes!
"De Grasse's pace has slowed down. Although he is only a little unsteady, Zhang Peimeng has already gained a visible advantage!
Ninety meters, one hundred meters, crossing the line!
Zhang Peimeng won!
Unbelievably, Zhang Peimeng maintained a very high level in the last 20 meters of the competition, and narrowly defeated the Canadian genius De Grasse!
For the first time in the history of the Chinese team, three people will enter the finals of the world's top sprint events!
This is a great encouragement to all Chinese sprinters.
It is also a great surprise for all Chinese people!”
"Beautiful!" On the sidelines, Su Feng and Su Bingtian, who did not leave immediately, high-fived each other.
From starting to accelerating to maintaining and sprinting at the final top speed, Zhang Peimeng did every step impeccably!
Of course, the most important thing is that he won! He qualified for the finals.
The three of them will stand on the track of the final together, which makes them feel excited.
Not only the two of them, but the coaching staff on the sidelines also hugged each other.
The Chinese audience in the auditorium had already excitedly waved large and small five-star red flags!
Originally, their main purpose was to watch Su Feng win the championship for the Chinese team in China, but now they got more than they wanted.
Three people, three people from the Chinese team entered the sprint finals!
The scene at that time makes people unable to control themselves just thinking about it.
"Proud", apart from excitement, the only emotion of the audience now is pride!
Of the eight finalists, three were from China, three were from Jamaica, and two were from the United States.
Just like the three-point world, just three countries took all the seats in the 100-meter final.
The Chinese team is still one of the countries with the most seats.
Moreover, the Chinese team also has one of the only two players who can compete for the championship.
This has left all the viewers unsatisfied.
If they are still dissatisfied, the Chinese team will only be able to play four players in violation of regulations.
However, with Xie Zhenye’s current strength, it may still be difficult to reach the finals.
Of course, the most excited person at this time was Zhang Paimeng himself.
After circling the field, Zhang Paimeng knelt directly on the ground, with tears streaming down his face.
It's not easy.
More than ten years of hard training day after day.
He dreams of reaching the finals of the world's top competitions.
But every black European and American player stood in front of him like a wall of high walls.
Especially the two track and field kings and the Four Tigers represented by Su Feng and Bolt, almost all of them are invincible to him.
And they immediately occupied six positions in the finals.
Therefore, he has to compete with masters from all over the world to fight for the last two positions.
It’s scary to think about.
But he did it, and his efforts without giving up for a moment finally paid off today.
At the World Championships held on China's doorstep, at China's home, he got the precious ticket to advance to the finals!
At this moment, he himself was also proud of himself!
But the hardship of the process flashed in his mind at the same time, and coupled with the current excitement, the tears couldn't stop flowing down.
The tough guy who usually never sheds tears no matter how hard or tiring the training is, actually sheds tears at this moment.
"Zhang Paimeng cried, but it's not shameful.
A sprint race only lasts ten seconds for experts.
But just for these ten seconds, I don’t know how many people have been training hard day and night for ten years!
Behind all achievements is the result of countless hard work and sweat.
Only by pouring the sweat that replenishes the steel one by one can we create the final sprint superman with a body as strong as steel.
Cry, the tender moments of a tough man do not represent cowardice, but the tenderness of the heart."
"I really can't stand him, why don't we leave." Seeing Zhang Paimeng crying non-stop on the field, Su Feng said to Su Bingtian jokingly.
Fortunately, he didn't hear Yang Jian's poetic explanation, otherwise he might really leave at this time.
Fortunately, Zhang Paimeng was okay. After crying for a long time, he finally remembered who he was and what he wanted to do.
And I can't affect the following game.
Finally, when the Chinese referee hesitated to give his man some time to cry, Zhang Peimeng stood up.
After waving to the audience again, he wiped away tears and returned to the entrance of the corridor.
Three friends who made it to the finals finally got together.
Reporters on the sidelines also seized the opportunity to take photos of this historic moment.
