Chapter 182: The First Medal (1100 Plus for the Monthly Pass)
The favorite Dai Long Robles was eliminated in the preliminaries with the bottom of the group, which immediately caused an uproar in the audience, and all 10,000 spectators stood up and asked why Dai Long Robles stopped after the start. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Media reporters from all over the world on the sidelines flocked to Robles like sharks in blood.
As for Liu Xiang, who was promoted to the first place in the group, he has been forgotten by everyone.
In the athletes' lounge, Zhang Huasong was also dumbfounded when he looked at this scene in the live broadcast screen.
On a stage like the World Championships, would anyone make this kind of mistake? Why did Robles pause after the start?
It's incredible.
Just then, Zhang Huasong heard someone in the lounge talking about Dai Long Robles making the same mistake in another game a few months ago. When others pressed the gun and ran, I thought that others were running and stopped sprinting.
As a result, the referee did not fire the shot, and Robles became a tragedy.
Unexpectedly, at the World Championships a few months later, Dai Long Robles made the same mistake again, and he "killed" himself in the preliminaries, which was equivalent to giving the championship to Liu Xiang.
Robles' performance today is the same as last time, those who know that Robles was wrong last time, it is easy to guess that Robles must have thought Liu Xiang ran away, so he stopped for a moment and waited for the referee to fire a rematch!
Only then did Zhang Huasong know why Robles paused.
This mental quality is too poor!
In the race, you just have to run by yourself, do you pay attention to the person next to you, whether the start is fast or slow?
Zhang Huasong never pays attention to whether the person next to him starts fast or slow during the race, and he has never met an opponent like Robles. Everyone is concentrating on starting and sprinting, who will be like Dai Long Robles?
It was an unexpected tragedy for the Cuban team and for Dyron Robles!
Of course, for the Hua Guo team and Liu Xiang, it was an unexpected surprise!
Everyone in the Huaguo team knows that Liu Xiang loves to rush, and he comes like this from time to time. But I never expected that this time the rush was successful, and the biggest competitor was directly shaken out!
Now, the 60-meter hurdles championship is almost in Liu Xiang's bag!
In the subsequent preliminaries, Shi Dongpeng also passed smoothly and advanced to the semifinals.
However, spectators and reporters have followed the news of Dai Long Robles, and almost no one cares about other people's games.
More than an hour later, a reporter pulled out the news from Robles' teammates and coach, and sure enough, as some people expected, Robles cared too much about beating Liu Xiang. In the process of the game, he even had the leisure to pay attention to Liu Xiang.
Robles's own starting reaction was very fast, so when he saw that Liu Xiang was faster than him, he subconsciously thought that Liu Xiang must be rushing and was going to be blown for a foul.
So, he paused for a moment, waiting for the referee to fire.
Just such a misjudgment made Robles out of the tournament early without even touching the door of the final. And, in a very disgraceful way, it was out.
Out of the game in this way, Robles can only blame himself for being too tender and having poor psychological quality, and he can't blame Liu Xiang!
There were a lot of runners in the race, and I didn't see anyone making jokes like Robles.
That afternoon, Robles, the favorite to win the 60m hurdles, went out like a joke and became the subject of laughter among media reporters and sports fans around the world.
However, Zhang Huasong and Liu Xiang can't pay attention to what the ending of Robles is.
Because, that night, Zhang Huasong had three consecutive games. Liu Xiang also held the semifinals and finals of the 60m hurdles in the evening.
Both of them need to rest well and prepare for the evening's game!
At 18 o'clock in the evening of March 8, local time in Spain, the start time of the men's high jump final of the Valencia Indoor World Championships.
In addition to Zhang Huasong, the 2006 Moscow Indoor World Championships champion, Rykobav from Russia, participated in the high jump final; Athens 2004 Olympic champion Stefan Holm from Sweden; and the European Championship winner, Joannur from Cyprus, among others.
Compared to the 400m, which did not have a Stars and Stripes, the high jump final was quite competitive.
Before the start of the game, the host of the live broadcast room of CCTV Sports Channel was introducing Zhang Huasong's competitors in this game to the audience, and the great historical significance of Zhang Huasong's victory will win the first gold medal of the indoor World Championships for the Chinese team.
According to Zhang Huasong's steady performance in other events in the past, he has reached a height of 2.39 meters before, so it is very likely that this final will exceed 2.39 meters. After exceeding 2.39 meters, it is not only breaking the Asian record, but also has a good chance of winning the championship.
Therefore, even if it is 24 o'clock in the middle of the night Peking time, there are not many Chinese viewers who watch the live broadcast of the high jump final with Zhang Huasong.
After listening to the host's introduction, everyone felt very much looking forward to it, and silently prayed that Zhang Huasong would show a steady and improved performance in all previous events, surpass the personal best of 2.39 meters, and break the Asian record to win the championship.
Under the watchful eyes of all the spectators at the scene and in front of the TV, the high jump final officially began.
In the first round, Rykobav was the first to play. This time, he did not relax with Zhang Hua, rashly chose a starting height of 2.30 meters, but chose a starting height of 2.20 meters to warm up, and then passed the test smoothly.
The first few people were the same, only choosing a starting height of 2.20 meters.
It wasn't until Zhang Huasong came out that he chose a starting height of 2.30 meters.
Because, he wants to lock up the championship as soon as possible so that he can retain his strength for the next race. To this end, he also improved his high jump skills from 2.4 meters to 2.45 meters.
His previous personal best was 2.39m, but this time he improved it a little more and exceeded 2.39m, which is completely reasonable.
Seeing that Zhang Huasong chose a starting height of up to 2.30 meters, the audience at the scene and in front of the TV opened their eyes wide, looking forward to Zhang Huasong's performance.
Then, I saw Zhang Huasong's first attempt of 2.30 meters, and he jumped over very easily.
In the second round, when the others began to challenge for 2.30 meters or 2.25 meters, Zhang Huasong did not raise the bar according to the rule of 2 cm 2 cm in high jump, but directly raised the bar to a height of 2.35 meters.
As soon as this height came out, the audience was shocked.
The Athens Olympic champion won the championship with a score of only 2.36 meters, and Zhang Huasong actually raised the height to 2.35 meters in the second round. In the Athens Olympics, this is the result of the runner-up!
However, at this seemingly high height, Zhang Huasong still passed it in one attempt and did not drop the crossbar.
The scene suddenly resounded with warm applause and cheers from overseas Chinese, and Feng Shuyong and other coaching staff in the lounge hugged and celebrated excitedly.
This 2.35m result alone can almost lock up a medal, and it is also the first medal for the Chinese team at this indoor World Championships.
