Chapter 89 The Competitive Preliminaries Group 3

Chapter 89 The third group of fiercely competitive preliminaries

On May 5, Bahamas time, the second IAAF World Relay Championship kicked off. The Chinese men's relay team was in the third and last group of the preliminaries.

The competition in this group is very fierce. There is an American team with the strongest lineup of Mike Rogers, Justin Gatlin, Tyson Gay, and Ryan Bailey. 9 seconds 87 "Dafeng Tong" Kiryu Xiangxiu's Japanese Benz team, and the Canadian team.

Yuan Guoqiang didn't get sick, so he directly killed the substitute players and sent out the main lineup of Zhang Peimeng, Xie Zhenye, Su Bingtian, and Wu Ziyi. If this group doesn't fight hard, it will be difficult to qualify.

In the previous two groups, the Jamaica team, Brazil team, Trinidad and Tobago team, and the French team all successfully advanced to the final with the top two in the group, while the last group consisted of China, Japan, the United States, and Canada. There are 4 strong teams, and it is destined that two teams will make up for the qualifying round.

Yuan Guoqiang didn't want to replace him, so he summoned his team members.

"Our opponents in the preliminaries are very strong. I don't need to say more about the strength of the US team and the Canadian team, and you all know something about it yourself. The Japanese team sent that Kiryu Xiangxiu this time, and the strength is also very strong, but I I believe you are no worse than them! Let me just say one thing - even if you really can’t compare with the US and Canadian teams, you still have to fucking beat the Japanese team!"

The team members clapped together and cheered together: "Gan! Gan! Gan!"

"Okay, ready to go!"

The commentator Yang Jian is also broadcasting commentary for domestic audiences: "I just said that if you can run to the 38-second mark, it is easy to enter the finals, so this is also an expectation for Chinese athletes, because last year China The men's relay team ran an astonishing 37 seconds in Incheon. But it's hard to say whether the players can perform at the same level as last year, and we can only bless them with great expectations."

While Yang Jian was giving continuous commentary, the participating teams also entered the arena one after another.

Track 8, Team Italy,

"The seventh track is the US team. The US team also sent the strongest lineup this time, Mike Rogers, Tyson Gay, Ryan Bailey and the US speedster Just Tingatlin. This is to compete with the Jamaica team. Already!"

Poland is on track 6 and Australia is on track 5.

"The Chinese team is about to play, the champion lineup of the Incheon Asian Games! Eh? Why did Zhang Peimeng show that he is the first bat? Wu Ziyi is the fourth bat. What is the situation?"

In Yang Jian's doubts, the four members of the Chinese team either ran or walked towards their starting position.

"This is a surprise for our domestic audience. After nearly 5 months of training, the final relay order has become Zhang Peimeng in the first baton and Wu Ziyi in the fourth baton. I hope that after changing the baton , the Chinese men's relay team can surprise us rather than frighten us."

Yang Jian was so confused by the order of handing over the baton that he forgot to introduce the following teams.

The third track is the Dominican team, the second track is the Canadian team, and the first track is the Japanese team.

Wu Ziyi came to the handover area of ​​the fourth leg. The fourth leg has the highest requirement for the athlete's maximum speed. Because the actual running distance is 4 meters, there is sufficient acceleration time for the athlete to accelerate to the extreme speed state.

The athletes on the field went to their own starting area one after another, and began to adjust the running aids and warm up for a test run.

"The race is about to start, let's pay attention to what kind of results the Chinese men's relay team can run after changing the order?"

After all the athletes on the field finished their test runs, they retreated behind the run-ups and waited for instructions. Zhang Peimeng looked firm and took deep breaths to adjust his state.This is the first time he has appeared in the Chinese men's relay team as the No. 1 baton. These days, he has made many changes to adapt to the No. 1 baton. Now is the time to test the results.

On the contrary, Wu Ziyi's mentality is the best among the four. He knows that there is still a big gap between the current Chinese team and the US and Jamaica teams. The Canadian team is not weak at all. As for the Japanese team, he is not afraid at all.

“On your marks~”

The command came out from the electric horn, and Zhang Pei yelled to embolden himself, and then resolutely stepped on the running gear, waiting for the gun to be fired.

"Set!"

"boom!"

When the starting gun rang, Zhang Peimeng kicked off quickly, twisted his legs quickly, and focused on speeding up.

"Okay, the race begins! Zhang Peimeng's starting reaction is still very fast, it depends on how he accelerates the corner. Mike Rogers of the US team is indeed outstanding."

Zhang Peimeng was far away from the U.S. team on the 7th floor. He couldn't see the situation of the U.S. team and didn't want to see it. But in his sight, the first bat of the Australian team was being drawn closer by him.

Xie Zhenye saw Zhang Peimeng who was gradually approaching, estimated the distance, turned around quickly, put his right hand on the ground, bent over and started to run.

Zhang Peimeng was in a state of extreme speed at this time, and quickly approached Xie Zhenye. The last 3 meters, the time had come, and he quickly shouted: "Go!"

Xie Zhenye nimbly raised his left hand and kept swinging his right arm. Feeling the moment the handover stick touched his palm, he firmly grasped the handover stick, raised his head instantly, and rushed forward.

"The Chinese team handed over the baton very smoothly. They opened up some distance between Australia and Dominia next to them. The camera showed Gatlin. Gatlin is indeed too strong. Before the handover, he was at least 5 meters ahead of other opponents. !"

"Look at the 3rd baton. The US team took the lead to hand over the baton. The Chinese team is not bad. It should be second only to the US team and the Canadian team. The 3rd baton is Su Bingtian, Su Bingtian with the full moon scimitar! Su Bingtian speeds up and gives full play to his abilities come out!"

Su Bingtian had seen the American team that had already handed over the baton before taking over, but he could not be confused by the American team. He started quickly and accurately, took the baton from Xie Zhenye's hand firmly, and accelerated with all his strength. He had to be steady. I can't let the US team and the Canadian team lead too much on me, otherwise it will be difficult for Wu Ziyi to recover.

It's getting closer, 5 meters, 3 meters, Wu Ziyi in front of him has raised his left arm and opened his palm, Su Bingtian also raised his right hand immediately, and after another 4 steps, he handed over the baton to Wu Ziyi.

"Ayi! Go!"

Feeling Su Bingtian's strength, Wu Ziyi quickly retracted the stick and swung his arms with all his strength, but he didn't raise his head completely.When his left foot stepped on the straight line, Wu Ziyi began to lift his head and raise his center of gravity, and began to run on his way, gradually accelerating to a state of extreme speed.

From the angle of view, Bailey of the US team has already run into the straight about 5 meters away, and he also feels a figure on the left, whether it is the Canadian team or the Japanese team, what he has to do now is to maintain his own rhythm and move himself All the energy is brought out to guarantee a cut!

"The U.S. team is far ahead, and Wu Ziyi and the Canadian team are neck and neck! Wu Ziyi accelerates, hold on! Don't lose speed! The last 30 meters, hold on! Press the line! Second! The group is second! Wu Ziyi leads the Canadian team by at least one length bit!"

When Wu Ziyi crossed the finish line, he looked to the left side intentionally, making sure that he was the second to pass the finish line, and then looked at the timer: 2, which is naturally the result of the US team, which is the first in the group.Not bad, although I didn't play the best form in Incheon, but I was able to advance to the second place in the group in the World Relay Competition, at least it shows that the decision to change bats was correct.

Yang Jian: "The state is very good. We originally thought that facing the strong American team and the equally strong Canadian team, we might have to fight for the final spot together with the Japanese Benzene team, but what we didn't expect was that the 4 This guy actually won the second place in the group! The Chinese team is 2 seconds 38, the third is... eh? The Japanese team is 30 seconds 3, and the fourth is the Italian team. Canada fouled? This is good news."

The director began to play back, "Our relay team did very well indeed. Zhang Peimeng's first leg was not as good as we expected. It might not be as good as his performance in the fourth leg. Xie Zhenye was also trying his best. Su Bingtian's third leg was very good. Well, before the handover, Canada was slightly ahead, but when it came to the 1rd or 4th baton, it was actually Wu Ziyi who took over first."

"Then there was Wu Ziyi's wonderful fourth shot. Not only was he not caught up by the Canadian team, but he even gradually led by at least one position. We have never seen this kind of situation in previous international competitions. I am now I am very curious to what extent Wu Ziyi's 4-meter strength has grown, and this kind of fourth-stroke performance is at least within 4 seconds 9!"
