The team of Lao Yi worked hard, but because they were assigned to the death group, they had to settle for a wait-and-see status.
Although everyone is sorry, the game must continue.
After Michael Rogers won the first place in the second group, it was Su Shen's turn.
"What is about to begin is the third group of the men's 100-meter semi-finals." Yang Jiandao: "Chinese player Su Shen will appear in this group."
“Athletes in this group include former world record holder Asafa Powell, American player Davis Patton, Trinidad and Tobago’s Mark Burns, St. Kitts and Nevis’s Chang Aoki Jin Collins, Japanese player Shintaro Kimura, French player Ronald Pognon, and one of the top three ten-breakers in Asia, Samuel Francis of Qatar."
"Looking at the strength of this group, it is actually more famous than the previous group." Yang Jian quickly gave everyone a popular science: "Except for the Japanese player Shintaro Kimura, none of the others has broken ten PBs. 7 Two people who have broken 10 PBs are actually together in the rematch. This is really a grand occasion that has never been seen in track and field competitions before."
"Indeed, it has never happened before." Li Tao nodded: "There are 3 players in this group with 9.80+ and 7 break 10. This is a lineup that has never been seen in previous Olympic finals. In this era The improvement is really too fast.”
"Fortunately, we have also kept up with the times." Yang Jian sighed, turned around and said, "I just don't know how the Japanese player Shintaro Kimura feels among these seven people. "
"What else can I do?" Li Tao said, "I guess it will be as uncomfortable as possible."
"Seven PB ten-breakers, as a newcomer Shintaro Kimura, I guess it would be best not to escape from the shadows this time."
Berlin Olympic Stadium.
"Come on, don't be afraid Kimura!"
"You can do it, believe in yourself and your Yamato spirit!"
"You must perform beyond your limits, these people are no match for you!!!"
"Come on, Kimura!!!"
Although the Japanese track and field team shouted very fiercely, as a person involved, Shintaro Kimura was... panicked in his heart.
Damn...is this possible?
Can I not be afraid of this?
There were seven ten-breakers around me, and my damn best score was only 10.20+, and I had to rely on strong winds to get there.
Do you want me to believe in myself?
Do you believe in your Yamato spirit?
Now even if Amaterasu himself came to possess him, I guess the old man would be afraid.
This is true, because it is too difficult. The Japanese team's local national finals are the highest level in the past years, and none of them can reach this level of the semi-finals. You asked Shintaro Kimura, a 22-year-old young man, to reach 10.20+ for the first time this year. He used to be a 10.30~10.40+ player, and he suddenly reached this situation.
How do you ask him to believe in himself?
Erikochi Masashi's idea is - think too much.
I'm afraid of this situation. There are seven ten-breakers, and it's useless for you to shout ten daheshen.
Sprinting has never been something that can only be done with chicken blood.
It's a science.
A science of exercise!
Therefore, he believes that the track and field team's words to Kimura Shintaro should not be like this. Instead, they should encourage him to run relaxedly and not feel pressured. Whatever results he achieves will be his results. In this case, they might be able to go into battle lightly and break out. But now, the pressure is too great and the strength is too disparity, which is completely counterproductive.
And don’t you really think too much about the position of the first lane?
Even if I take banned drugs, I don’t dare to think about winning.
The second lane is Samuel Francis. His drug use has not been found yet, so he can continue to play. However, after being critically attacked by Zhao Haohuan last year and taunting him with "Did you take fake medicine?", Samuel Francis started to lose control and became extremely irritable.
My mentality plummeted.
Basically, it ends the possibility of entering ten seconds.
In competitive sports, mentality is also an aspect. Even Powell would not be able to run well if he did not do well in this aspect, not to mention Samuel Francis, whose talent is far inferior to Powell's. Now he can be destroyed at work and leisure, and his strength has already fallen below the level of the Ten Breaker.
The same is true of the third path, Ronald Pognon. After the technical reform failed, he ran slower and slower. Now not only is the future gone, but the latter has not become stronger due to the technical changes. Instead, both have begun to weaken. , coupled with age and injuries, although he is only 27-28 years old now, he has dropped several levels again this year, and it is already difficult to open in the 10.20s.
In one sentence, his peak has passed.
Among the future sprinters, there will no longer be Ronald Pognon's name.
Kim Collins in the eighth lane is a monster and has been making technical changes. Therefore, although his strength fluctuates, he still maintains the ability for about 10 seconds. In the future, as he gets older, he may even be able to do it for three or four consecutive years. Maintaining a score of less than ten seconds is truly an "authentic old monster".
Su Shen is in the fifth lane, the fourth lane to his left is Asafa Powell, and the sixth lane to the right is Mark Burns.
When he was asked again this time if he would be a little scared when he met Su Shen this time, Mark Burns finally stopped talking at the North Olympics last year and said, "I won't be afraid of anyone this year. I came to Beijing this year just to win medals." This year, his strength is actually not as good as last year. To put it bluntly, he does not have the strength to break ten. As a result, he met Su Shen, who has already reached a legal score of 9.80s. He has long lost the spirit and attitude of last year. .
I could only say something slightly embarrassing, "Su is very strong. I'm not in good shape right now, so I'm probably no match for him, but I'm in the top three. I don't need to compete with him and Asafa for the top spot in the group."
This is the change brought about by strength. Mark Burns, the ten-breaker, no longer dares to remain proud of Su Shen.
Or ordinary ten-breakers, in fact, they can no longer remain proud of this year's Su Shen.
Su Shen, who has reached the level of "one palm of a human being", has become the target they look up to.
When your performance has greatly improved your opponent's performance, your opponent will not be able to be jealous or hostile.
Because they are not on the same level at all.
The three main competitors in this group are Su Shen in the fifth lane, Powell in the fourth lane, and Button in the seventh lane.
These three people still have the ability of PB9.80+ this year, which seems to be at a high level.
But in fact, if you look at the interview before the game, you will know that Powell did not regard Button as a piece of cake at all. He knew that Button's results were blown by the strong wind. His real goal was only Su Shen in the fifth lane.
"I will run well and will not make the same mistakes as the first shot." Powell said: "Starting from the second shot, I want to tell the world that I, Asafa Powell, am about to start exerting my strength."
"Except for Su Shen, who is a little troublesome to me, I haven't given much thought to the rest of this group."
Button was very annoyed. On the American side, Gatlin also thought Powell's words were too arrogant and looked down on America's sprinters. But in fact, in Green's view, this was not an issue to debate at all.
Powell and Su Shen are both people who can run to 9.80+ without much wind speed. You, a person who needs full wind speed to barely run to 9.80+, how can you compete with them?
The strength is down a notch.
Not on the same level.
Don't ask, the question is that in this group, he is only optimistic about Su Shen or Powell. Button is not bad, but he just wants to strive for third place.
It is impossible for the first two people to give up the first two people.
Because they all want to make a difference in the finals, they need to gradually start to accumulate energy, and then continue to improve their momentum so that they can be in the best condition to compete with Usain Bolt.
This idea, let alone them, is actually anyone who wants to compete with Bolt.
Almost everyone thinks so.
From Guy to Powell, there are no exceptions, because most people don't have Bolt's invincible strength and momentum, so they need to keep accumulating. This is a correct understanding of one's own strength and enough respect for the track and field monster Usain Bolt.
"Su, let's warm up for this shot first." Powell still likes to run with Su Shen.
Especially around Su Shen.
Because if nothing else, the data proves that as long as he is by Su Shen's side, he can achieve good results, whether it is the finals or not.
Don't mention this. After Powell's team analyzed it, Powell himself unknowingly added a "psychological suggestion buff". In addition, Powell is only a mentality problem, never a strength problem, so once the mentality problem is solved, he will indeed become a very strong threat.
Because he wanted to compete with Su Shen in the indoor competition, he trained very early and hard this year. As a result, he was in particularly good condition.
Not consumed by excessive amounts of money and extravagance.
In other words, no time is wasted.
Anyway, his coach Stephen Francis is very satisfied with Powell's status this year.
He even believes that this year Powell will have the opportunity to continue to compete with Bolt.
Although this remark did not mean to take Guy seriously, it did show that Francis was very confident in Powell's condition.
"Okay." Su Shen knew that Powell Guy actually had the same idea as him.
If you want to run better shot by shot, you must at least stimulate your state.
This is all preparation for the finals.
Seeing Su Shen agreeing, Powell also smiled and said: "Then let's help the Berlin World Championships together for ten seconds."
"No problem." Su Shen said concisely.
That's exactly what he thought.
Coincidentally.
Ordinary opponents, he is really afraid of himself and cannot inspire such a strong on-the-spot state.
Well now, Powell is here, there must be no problem.
Not to mention my own influence, Powell's performance in the non-finals was enough to focus my body and mind.
Su Shen looked at Powell, and he was doing the final activities seriously. This posture clearly meant that he was pulling away.
Zhao Haohuan looked up and said, "Xiao Tian is going to get serious."
"Seriously, is it so early? Brother Gou Huan?" Lao Yi's breath gradually calmed down and he asked, "This is only the second shot."
Su Shen is not himself, so he doesn't need it at all.
The top three should be a piece of cake.
Even in this group, seven ten-breakers are not in the way.
This was Lao Yi's idea, but it seemed to be different to Zhao Haohuan. He began to give Lao Yi face-to-face instructions: "Because the goals are different."
"Tim's goal is to win a medal this time, or even give Bolt a chance."
"If this is the case, then you need to stimulate your state one shot at a time, otherwise it will not be easy to suddenly reach the best limit."
"So that's it." Lao Yi nodded and said, "Then Xiao Tian's shot is not to break ten."
"It will definitely break ten." Zhao Haohuan stared at the screen and said: "And with this shot, in order to maintain his momentum in Berlin, I guess he will try to compete with Asafa Powell for the first place in the group."
"Now I hope Powell won't go too far and do well in the group stage."
But I must be overthinking this, because Powell's personality and habits will perform well in small competitions and non-finals. For example, Powell is already ready now. Su Shen knows what Powell is thinking just by glancing at him.
but……
How could I be afraid of you?
After all, this year, even if the environment is so harsh and top fighters emerge in endlessly, I still want to get an OW medal.
This goal cannot be changed because the opponent is too strong or the situation is not good.
Su Shen looked ahead, took a few breaths, and then got ready to go.
"on your marks."
"set."
After a few breaths, bang————————————————————
Electronic gunfire.
Game start.
Su Shen took the lead and stepped forward quickly, followed closely by Powell. The two of them really widened the gap between them and the others at once.
Explosive start VS explosive start, this year's World Championships will happen again.
"Su Shen and Powell started the fastest!"
"In the acceleration zone, Su Shen is even better!"
Yang Jian said this with pride, because it represents the speed of flower growers. Now that the future has begun, we flower growers with yellow skin are the first in history!
But even though he was lagging behind, Powell still quickly exerted his strength and kicked out seven consecutive steps "bang bang bang bang bang bang bang" for the entire ten meters. He was only slightly behind Su Shen and far ahead of the others. Button, the seventh player of the American team, although he was not happy with the feeling that these two people were "arrogant" or "not caring about himself" before, but now that they are actually facing off, he knows...
They didn't lie.
Really, they didn't feel any pressure when facing him.
In their eyes, this shot only has each other.
only myself.
After Su Shen pulled up to the first place in the accelerating run, he and Powell were already leading by a large margin. After all, it seemed that there were seven ten-breakers and one third-rate player, but in fact, there were many people who did not have the strength to break ten. At least this season is gone, so the two of them rushed to the front at once, and the visual effect was greatly improved.
In addition, there is the rematch. The point where many people are competing is actually heading towards third place.
The competition in the second group is really fierce.
"While running on the road, Powell picked up the speed and started to narrow the gap. Su Shen held on!" (Be careful of Powell running on the road!)
Powell did indeed charge forward, and his speed was indeed a bit excessive.
It's just too intense.
This posture requires you to kill yourself before you can stop.
Wai Wai Wai Wai, Brother Bao, you are too high-minded.
Powell, when there is really no pressure, he can run so relaxed that he is really powerful.
The speed soared upwards.
Coupled with the stronger top speed, Su Shen was a little unable to withstand it and was chased by Powell.
Fortunately, when he arrived at the sprint area, Su Shen turned around and glanced, and Powell had already rushed up from the side.
Su Shen thought of his scene at the Tokyo Olympics and immediately said: "Give me some face."
Because you can't talk too much during the run, what you said is actually "it's just a rematch, give me some face, let's conserve our physical strength."
When Powell saw Su Shen say this, and then saw Su Shen slow down, he also had an idea and slowed down.
In fact, Su Shen also changed the direction of this shot to help Powell, because this shot was against the wind of 0.4M/S. In this way, Powell actually ran to 9.95s, which is equivalent to the consumption of 9.91~9.92s for one shot. This was also a factor why his performance in the semifinals was unsatisfactory.
If the front is too fast, it will definitely affect the back. Bolt's approach is the best.
Don't be too aggressive in front.
Therefore, both of them finally let go of the last shot. Su Shen passed the finish line with 9.98s and Powell with 9.99s.
