Almighty Coach

Chapter 515: Luck is on my side

"20 meters 42!" The referee confirmed the score of Wins Jackson. This is also the best result so far in the women's shot finals today.

The head referee repeatedly confirmed it before recording this result.

He has been a referee for so many years, and has participated in many of the world's top track and field games, such as Wins Jackson, this is the first time he has seen it.

An athlete, the first test shot was still a big distance away from 17 meters. It was not like the result of the Olympic finals. The second shot was more than 20 meters and entered the Olympic medal zone in an instant. . The degree of progress in this achievement is too great, it is completely at the level of two levels, or it is completely like the achievement made by two people. If it wasn't for the first time, it was difficult for the referee to imagine that this was the result of the same athlete in the same game.

Seeing a result of more than 20 meters displayed on the big screen, the audience on the spot did not care who made such a good result, but directly gave very warm applause.

Melcroft was disturbed by the sudden applause. He raised his head and looked at the big screen at the scene. When he saw the number "20.42" above, he was suddenly air-conditioned.

"20m42, great performance, is that soy sauce player from the United States?"

The world record for women ’s shot puts is 22.63 meters, and the Olympic record is 22.41 meters. Compared with it, a score of more than 20 meters is really nothing. However, those records were all created by the era of track and field records in the 1980s, and modern athletes cannot achieve even more than 21 meters. The score of 20 meters 42 can already enter the medal area of ​​the Olympic Games.

At this moment, Melcroft's expression deepened, and he felt the pressure. He had realized that the unknown American player did not seem to come to fight soy sauce. He should pay enough attention to the other party.

"Coach, that American ..." Igona Gav expressed a worried expression.

"Don't worry, just 20 meters 42 is not enough to win. Maybe it's just a coincidence. That American is shit." Melcroft said comfortingly.

...

"I'll say it. My luck can't be so bad, and there will never be a very bad situation in a row." Li Dairu breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Dai knows that although the 20-meter 42 result is not enough to win the gold medal, it has entered the medal area. However, Li Dai is more concerned that this result has allowed Wins Jackson to gain a firm foothold in the top eight, which means that after the first three test casts, Wins Jackson can make the last three test casts, resulting in three more The chance to gamble.

Gambling is a matter of course, the more times the better.

"There are still four chances of trial investment in the back, and it wouldn't be a loss if the four trial shots could make a state burst." Li Dai thought confidently.

Wins-Jackson walked off the field, she seemed very excited, this result is already close to his best result in training.

This is also the best result in the second round of test casting. The two best and worst results on the court so far are from Wins Jackson.

...

The third test vote started. For the players who ranked in the bottom four, if they could not squeeze into the top eight, they would be eliminated, so this is a test vote that is vital to their lives.

After several athletes debuted, no one could exceed the 20-meter mark. Wins-Jackson still maintained this number one position.

But Wins-Jackson also knows that the 20-meter 42 result won at most one medal, not enough to get a gold medal.

At this time, Wins Jackson is not satisfied with a medal. She wants to win a gold medal and wants to get the first gold for the American team.

When she once again stood in the throwing zone, she had placed her goal on the Olympic gold medal.

With a 20-meter 42 score as a guarantee, Wins-Jackson can use some of the more extreme technical moves as far as possible, even if it is possible to foul, it does not matter, after all, she has the opportunity to try four times.

But this time, the goddess of luck seemed to be busy with other things and did not help Wins-Jackson.

"16 meters 95!" The referee announced the score of Wins Jackson's third test shot.

"Oh ..." There was a cry of disappointment from the audience. As one of the athletes with the best results, everyone rightfully expects Wins-Jackson to cast a best result, but she disappointed everyone. Her result was the second worst on the spot, and the "first worst" Herself.

"I said long ago that the 20-meter 42 was just a coincidence!" Melcroft looked up, complacent, as if to show the world that he was correct.

In contrast, Li Dai's expression is much calmer. It's like playing a dice, as long as no one is out of the thousands, then there is a win and a loss. With the addition of the state scale, the system will certainly not be out of control.

After the first three test shots were completed, in addition to Wins Jackson, Russian star Sergeyeva also cast a 20-meter 33 score, temporarily ranked second.

The final four players were eliminated. The top eight took a short three-minute break. After the referee rearranged the appearance order according to their respective results, they began the fourth test vote. Because Wins-Jackson's results temporarily ranked first, she was scheduled to debut.

In the fourth test shot, the competitors obviously fought harder. The first two players who took the stage both took relatively extreme technical moves, and they all received fouls.

New Zealand star Adams showed a 20-meter 28 in the fourth shot; Hungarian star Malton also shot a 20-meter 25, Russian Milkina shot 20 meters 43, overtaking Wins Jackson, rising To the first place, then her compatriot Russian star Sergeyeva cast a score of 20 meters 45 in one fell swoop, temporarily ranked first.

Russian athletes started to exert their strength. Both Russian players surpassed Wins-Jackson and pushed her to the third position.

Wins-Jackson made his final appearance, but because of the excessive technical movement, his toes stepped on the edge of the throwing area and was awarded a foul. Within a few minutes, the US team's situation changed from an advantage to a disadvantage.

...

"Good, girls, pretty good job!" Igona Gav's emotions are very excited, as if the gold medal has been taken by the Russian team.

In the women ’s shot put project, Russia ’s strength is indeed the top two in the world. If it is the US team that has not been affected by the doping scandal, it may still be able to compete with the US team. The current US team only relies on a young Wins-Jackson, it really seems to be difficult.

"I just said that the American was able to cast 20 meters 42 but it was just luck. Her true strength is definitely not that strong." Igona Gav repeated the words just now, and then said: "There are still two You have already taken the lead in this trial, so do n’t worry about it. Let ’s fight as much as possible! We will take the gold and silver medals! "

...

The United States, at this time, is evening, which is the prime time for viewing. Many Americans are also waiting in front of the TV to watch the Olympic Games.

In a small bar, women's shot puts are being broadcast on TV.

At this time, the atmosphere of the bar seemed a bit dull, and many people just stared at the TV with a frustrated expression, and looked speechless. From the rise of a soy sauce player to the first place in the eyes of people, to being overtaken by two Russian players in a row, this ups and downs is indeed a very disappointing thing for the American audience.

The opponent is a strong Russian team, and there is a female shot puter Sergeyeva. If the US team is also a well-known player, the American audience may still have expectations, but Wins Jackson is An uncompromising newcomer, people will subconsciously feel that she is not Sergeyeva's opponent.

"The Russians have already surpassed, and our players not only did not give the Russians a counterattack, but they failed the test shots. Shouldn't the coach do something at this time?" Someone said.

"Yes, the coach really should do something!" The next person echoed.

...

The scene of the game.

Li Dai knew that he could do nothing.

He is betting on luck now, whether he is in a bad state or bad, which is not up to Li Dai to decide. Like playing Texas Hold'em, he is already ALL-IN, depending on what kind of cards can be dealt.

But Li Dai is still encouraging Wins Jackson.

"Wins, you don't have any psychological burden. This is your first time participating in the Olympics and you can get a bronze medal. It is already a very good result. And the opponents are Sergeyeva and Milkina, they are both Well-known athletes in the world, even if you ca n’t win, you wo n’t be humiliated. If you lose to them, no one will blame you. You have nothing to lose, and now every extra centimeter you throw is a bumper harvest. So next Do n’t be nervous, do n’t be constrained in your two test shots, and try your best to fight for it. Even if you do n’t get a better result, you are the winner! ”Li Dai said.

Wins-Jackson nodded, and Li Dai's indifferent appearance admitted that he immediately calmed down a lot.

...

In the fifth test shot, the competition of athletes on the scene became more intense.

Russia's two players occupy the first and second, and in terms of strength, these two are better than other countries' players.

Although the two are teammates, they also want to win the gold medal, so when they really arrived on the court, the two did not relax at all, and they all showed their full strength.

Athletes from other countries, such as Adams of New Zealand, Malton of Hungary, and Li Xiaona of the Chinese team, will not easily give up the gold medal to the Russians, and they have also started the "last stroke" mode.

In the fifth trial vote, New Zealand star Adams also cast a 20-meter 42 score, tying the third place of Wins-Jackson. According to the rules of the Olympics, the result of shot put depends only on the distance, not the order, two If people have the same results, they are tied for third place, which means that there will be an extra bronze medal in track and field events.

The same is true for the silver medal, where the opponents can be juxtaposed. However, if it is a gold medal, there can only be one. If the first result is tied, a play-off will be required.

The Russian athlete Milkina, who subsequently appeared, made a technical mistake and was sentenced to a foul. Sergeyeva improved her score to 20 meters 48 and continued to maintain the number one.

Wins Jackson is still the last one.

At this point in her mind could not help thinking of Li Dai's words.

"Coach Li is right. I can already get to this point. I'm already a winner. I have nothing to lose. Now every extra centimeter I throw is a bumper harvest!"

Wins-Jackson took a deep breath, calmed down, and began his fifth test shot.

This time, she still used a very limited technique, only to see the shot steadily flying over the 20-meter mark, and then landed on the ground.

Wins-Jackson's fifth test shot was 20 meters 54. Her technique of choosing the limit was also rewarded. She succeeded in overtaking Sergeyeva and regaining her first place.

...

"Luck is not bad! It's another state burst." Li Dai was relieved again.

The score of 20 meters 54 is already good enough, this is a possibility of winning the championship. And now only the last test vote is left, other players will feel pressured in the face of such a result, maybe they will play abnormally. The possibility of Wins Jackson winning the championship has also become greater.

Li Dai couldn't help looking at the other coaches. At this time, many coaches were solemn, and the athletes were also embarrassed. Obviously, the 20-meter 54 plus the last test shot made them feel desperate.

Melcroft is no longer as radiant as before. Although the 20-meter 54 result did not make him feel desperate, it also made him feel unprecedented pressure.

He looked at Sergeyeva and gave her a look of trust.

So far, Melkrov can only choose to trust Sergeyeva.

The players started their last test shot. The first player to appear was obviously under great pressure. She failed the test shot. Then the second player did not achieve the desired result. At this moment, every athlete who completes his own test shot will increase the probability of Wins Jackson winning.

Hungarian star Marton and Chinese player Li Xiaona have appeared one after another. Their last test shots were less than 20 meters, which could not pose a threat to Wins Jackson.

New Zealand star Adams has debuted. She is a 32-year-old veteran who is no longer at her peak, but her skills and experience make up for it, making her still among the top players in the world.

This is also the last time she participated in the Olympic Games, so she desperately hopes to get a gold medal, even if there is no gold medal, it is good to get a medal.

At this critical time, the rich experience did help her. She did not panic, but stood calmly in the throwing area, and then perfectly made a set of shot-throwing technical moves.

"20 meters 44!" The referee announced the results of Adams.

This result led her to overtake Milkina to the third place, which is also the best result she may achieve. Her Olympic career accompanied by this test vote was also completely over.

Milkina was anxious in her heart. After the fourth test vote, she was still in second place, and she hoped to challenge the champion, but now she is in fourth place, even without a medal. And there is only one chance for a trial vote.

She is also a very experienced athlete. At this critical time, she forced herself to calm down and walked into the throwing area.

"I can do it, I can do it!" Milkina knew that the only thing she could trust now was her own strength.

The shot flew out of Milkina's hand and easily crossed the 20-meter mark. From the naked eye, it seems that it is a distance of 20 meters and 50 meters, but whether it can exceed Wins-Jackson's 20 meters 54 requires further measurement.

Milkina looked at the surveyor with anticipation. After a few seconds, the referee finally gave the answer.

"20 meters 51!" The referee announced the final result.

Milkina was suddenly frustrated, she still did not exceed Wins Jackson's 20 meters 54.

The more frustrated expression is New Zealand player Adams. She is now in fourth place and has not even won a bronze medal.

At this time, the only one who can surpass Wins-Jackson is the Russian star Sergeyeva. If Sergeyeva ’s last shot could not exceed 20 meters 54, then the women ’s shot gold medal will belong to Wins Jackson.

...

In the world rankings in the last 24 months, Sergeyeva has always been in the top three in the world, and several of them have also ranked on the top of the world rankings.

Whether it is strength, experience or technology, Sergeyeva is at the pinnacle of her career. She is not afraid of any opponent in the world. Perhaps all she can prevent her from winning is only luck.

Sergeyeva walked into the throwing zone with a solemn expression. She seemed to be a little nervous, but Russian coach Melkrov knew that it was not nervous, but serious.

In the last test shot, Sergeyeva also felt unprecedented pressure, and this pressure turned into motivation, which made her hit the spirit more and more.

Finally, Sergeyeva cast his last shot at the Olympics.

The shot hit the ground, and the trace left behind was obviously more than 20 meters 50.

"Oh oh!" Sergeyeva roared excitedly. Although the referee had not announced the result, she knew that this time it would definitely exceed 20 meters 54.

"20 meters 63!" After the referee repeatedly confirmed, finally announced the result.

There was a huge applause at the scene, and they were congratulating Sergeyeva, as if celebrating Sergeyeva's victory in advance.

Melcroft even hugged his deputy Igor Nagav and raised his hands to the audience behind him, as if he had already won the gold medal.

The television broadcast footage was given to Sergeyeva, Melcroft, Wins-Jackson, and Li Dai. Perhaps the broadcaster wanted to capture the frustrated expression of the American coach. .

However, Li Dai only frowned slightly, and then resumed his calmness.

For Li Dai, being able to get a gold medal is certainly the best result, but the silver medal is not unacceptable. After all, in the women ’s shot put, it ’s not a stable job to change to those players who are involved in doping. For the champion, the silver medal has exceeded the goal of the US team.

And Li Dai still has the last chance to bet ~ www.readwn.com ~ If the last test shot is still in a state of affairs, Wins-Jackson may win.

Wins-Jackson stood on the field, all eyes were on her, and the women's shot winner's attribution also had to watch the final shot.

The most tense on the scene was Sergeyeva, who had done everything she could, but the final decision was in the hands of opponents. This feeling of being in an inferior position but still involuntary was indeed terrible.

"Don't worry, that American can't win you. She is very ups and downs today, and twice even not even reach 17 meters." Melcroft opened his mouth to comfort his disciples, in fact, his heart is also Very nervous.

Melcroft's voice just fell, and Wins Jackson on the field shot the ball.

"Boom!" The shot put **** the ground.

Everyone looked at the landing point.

"I have long felt that luck will be on my side!" Li Dai first smiled.
