king of sprint

Chapter 227
The temperature in Athens in mid-April is around 4 degrees.

slightly cooler.

15 games.

The players arrived in Athens on the evening of the 13th.

Allow one day to acclimate to the environment, climate and site.

The time of arrival in Athens is 3pm in Athens.

The time from the airport to the hotel arranged by the IAAF is 4:[-].

The team leader told all the players that they are not allowed to leave the hotel. On the afternoon of the 14th, they will arrange to go to the venue to adapt to the environment. They will compete on the 15th and 16th and leave the hotel on the morning of the 17th. During this period, no one is allowed to leave the hotel without permission.

……

Trial on the 14th.

Rousseau noticed his opponent in the 100-meter event, American player Tyson Gay from the North American United team.

Ball was very dissatisfied with the IAAF's classification of it as the South American United Team, so he did not participate in the 100-meter event, but only participated in the 4X100-meter event. The 100-meter event was represented by Trinidad and Tobago star Burns. Americas.

The 4X100 meters of the Asian United Team is participated by the Thai team, so Rousseau has no chance to play against Ball in this World Cup track and field competition.

Therefore, Rousseau's opponent is only Tyson Gay.

Last November, Rousseau fought Tyson Gay at the 11 IAAF Super Grand Prix.

After that, the sprinter, who is 4 years older than Rousseau, seemed to have a sudden enlightenment. He ran a time of 12 seconds at the New York Reebok Grand Prix in December, tied for two with Usain. A newcomer to the world.

Lu Jinrong has studied Guy's performance, and feels that Guy is in a period of explosion, and there is still room for improvement.

So... will this new world trapeze have 'skills' if he wins?

Rousseau pondered this question.

……

15:16 pm on the 00th.
There is still half an hour left before the 100m hurdles final.

The audience who watched the live broadcast in China ushered in the first 'surprise'.

"Hey? Is that American player from the North American team Alan Johnson?"

"It seems to be! Didn't you say that this buddy will not participate in this competition?"

……

Liu Yu was also taken aback when he saw his 'old friend' Alan Johnson appearing in the 110-meter race in sportswear.

Now, in the men's 110-meter hurdles event worldwide, the two recognized as the strongest are Liu Yu and Alan Johnson. As for the last World Championships, Liu Yu lost to the French teenager Du Curry. It was an accident.

"This is a tactic..." Rousseau also noticed the appearance of Alan Johnson, and couldn't help but think of the scene when he suddenly appeared at the World Championships.

As a result, Rousseau had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, the 16-meter hurdles started at 30:110.

A not-so-accidental accident happened.

It's just that the starter's starting gun fired very fast.

Liu Yu obviously hesitated.

Rousseau estimated that his start was about 0.2 seconds away.

This is undoubtedly a failure.

Rousseau watched Alan Johnson run a world-class start again, and he couldn't help sighing. Like the World Championships, Liu Yu started slowly again.

After ten seconds.

Liu Yu, Alan Johnson and Robles crossed the line almost simultaneously.

When the timer shows the results of the three.

Liu Yu shook his head, showing a disappointed and magnanimous smile.

He ran 13 seconds, while Alan Johnson ran 03 seconds.

In 2004, Liu Yu defeated Alan Johnson here and won the Olympic gold medal. This year, Alan Johnson defeated Liu Yu and ran 12 seconds, although it was not as good as Liu Yu's 96 seconds in the Olympic Games. , but also created the best score in his personal history.

The 35-year-old veteran embraced Liu Yu enthusiastically after the game, and Liu Yu also hugged Alan Johnson. This scene was photographed by many reporters and regarded as the best example of friendship between players in the arena.

……

Actually.

That night.

"Rousseau, every time there is an international competition with you, I get a silver medal. I wonder if you hit me." Liu Yu lay on the bed very depressed and talked about Rousseau.

"Then as long as there are international competitions with you, I will win gold medals. It seems that you are my mascot. I hope this time is no exception." Rousseau said.

Liu Yu was so angry that he turned to the other side to 'face the wall', not looking at Rousseau.

……

Athens time on the 17th at 19:40 pm.

The men's 100-meter final, which has attracted the most attention in this World Cup track and field competition, is about to begin.

According to the competition system of the World Cup track and field competition, the winner is decided by one shot, so this game has attracted a lot of attention.

Tyson Gay, representing the North American team, stood in lane 4, Rousseau stood in lane 5, and the other players lined up in turn.

In the live footage, Rousseau appeared confident.

Huang Jue in the CCTV live broadcast room couldn't help sighing: "After the baptism of high-intensity competitions throughout the year in 2005, Rousseau has indeed become more mature. When he goes there, I have a feeling that this is the champion."

The guest smiled and nodded: "Bauer did not participate in the 100-meter event, and Gatlin was suspended. Now on this 100-meter track, Rousseau is indeed the one with the best performance in the past. Thinking about his results, it is natural that he has" Champion phase'."

Huang Jue said: "Since the second Athletics World Cup, domestic players have won a total of 5 gold medals, but they are all women's events. The best result in men's events is a runner-up in the triple jump. Of course, now it is Liu Yu's silver medal." , but never won a gold medal."

The guest said: "So audience friends can look forward to Rousseau. If Rousseau plays normally, we will win the first gold medal in the men's event."

Huang Jue said: "It was a pity for Liu Yu yesterday. You see, in the 2005 World Championships, he lost to the French teenager Dou Curry because of a problem with his start. This time, he lost to his old opponent Johnson because of a problem with his start. , but in normal races, Liu Yu doesn't start slowly."

The guest said: "Yes, it's not a matter of mentality. Liu Yu has participated in so many international competitions, so there shouldn't be a problem with his mentality, and it's not a problem with his state. Liu Yu's state is very good recently, so it can only be said to be a coincidence."

Huang Jue nodded: "It's a pity for Liu Yu. Fortunately, there is Rousseau, but Rousseau's opponent this time has a new world trapper, Tyson Gay, the representative of North America, and the Reebok in December 2005. At the Grand Prix, he ran 12 seconds."

The guest nodded: "It depends on Tyson Gay being able to stably enter the 10-second mark, which is still a special case. If his score can be stabilized within the 10-second mark, he will be a strong challenger for Rousseau."

Huang Jue said: "Okay, the competition is about to start. Now that all the players have stood on the starting line, we saw that the broadcast of the competition was introducing Rousseau, and the audience gave him very warm applause. It seems that track and field fans all over the world are very excited I have already met this world trapper from Asia..."

……

Rousseau faced tens of thousands of spectators in the Olympic Stadium in Athens.

made his signature gesture.

the first.

Seeing Rousseau raise his right index finger, the audience in the entire stadium burst into loud cheers again.

At this moment, on the Haijiao Pavilion, some people began to send out strange posts.

"It was said at the Super Grand Prix that I wanted to be number one, but I was slapped in the face. I wonder if I will be slapped in the face this time?"

I haven't waited for other netizens to scold this guy to death in the post.

The moderator of Haijiao Pavilion has locked his post, banned his username, and banned his ID.

After finishing all this, Lu Xiaoyu felt much refreshed.
