As the countdown entered the last second, the door opened, revealing a plastered panel of sponsors. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The first team to appear in the preliminaries was the 8th ranked British team.

After they appeared, they attracted a burst of cheers from the audience, and it could be seen that the audience couldn't wait for this relay race.

Lamb Tanik reached out and waved to the crowd, and he looked relaxed and could tell that he and his team-mates were still confident in the final despite not playing very well in the preliminaries.

The British team was followed by Poland, Canada and other teams, although they were of different nationalities, but they all had the same confident looks, which was the same as expected before the game, and they were all ready to show their talents in the final.

The Canadians were followed by the Australian team, who finished fifth in the preliminaries, and the appearance of the Australians instantly changed the atmosphere of the venue, and the cheers suddenly turned into cheers and sporadic boos, and the unrepentance of the Australians was already doomed to be unwelcome in this stadium.

The Australian players also have a serious face, and as athletes, it is definitely not a good thing to receive such a welcome ceremony.

Australia is followed by the island team, perhaps with the foil of their fellow Australia, the island people who did not take the Chinese team in the semifinals received some applause.

The island team is followed by the Chinese team, although the strength is the weakest in the group, although it is the least favored team, their appearance still attracted explosive cheers from the scene.

To be able to reach the final, this team has already earned all the respect of the audience.

The Chinese team was followed by Biedermann's German team, and the United States, the favorite team led by Phelps.

It is only after the star-studded American team appears that the cheers on the scene can be compared with the Chinese team's debut.

After the players were introduced one after another, they all began the final preparations before the game.

At this time, the commentator on the sidelines also began to explain for the first time.

The U.S. team had won three gold medals in the previous finals, and the relay race has been their traditional strength, so they have a good chance of winning this gold medal. The narrator analyzed at the beginning that it was not that he was angry with others to destroy his prestige, but that the strength of others was there.

"Yes, the U.S. team is very strong, but it is not easy to win this gold medal, although the French team unexpectedly did not enter the final, but whether it is the German team led by Biederman, or the island team led by Kosuke Kitajima, or the strong Australian team, they all have the strength to compete for the championship. The commentator followed the analysis.

"It's also said that the U.S. team is strong in the butterfly and freestyle, and if their predecessors don't keep up, it will be difficult to win this gold medal. The narrator nodded in agreement.

"If you are bold, if our young man plays well, coupled with Tang Hao's strength, we will have a certain chance to win a medal. The commentator said with a wry smile, and it could be seen that when he said this, he didn't have much confidence in his heart.

'There's hope, it's our home turf, the youngsters are exploding, even if they don't win a medal, just beating one opponent is already a win for them. The narrator also didn't have much confidence.

While the commentators on the sidelines were commenting, the players were ready, and the first runners climbed the starting platform one after another.

The first batter of the Chinese team was Xu Jiayu, before going on the field, he received a burst of encouragement from his teammates, and his expression was excited, and it could be seen that his confidence was reaching a peak state.

"Our competition is about to start, the Polish team in the first lane, they are ranked seventh in the preliminaries, the second lane is the Australian team, the third lane is our Chinese team, and the fourth lane is the United States team......" The commentator quickly introduced the players in their respective lanes.

"The Chinese team is between the United States and Australia, which is a challenge for the lads, but also an opportunity, if they can keep up, there is hope!" said the commentator quickly.

"All in place. ā€

At this moment, the last prompt sound before departure came from the scene.

The players all grabbed the handrails and lifted them up.

The cheers at the scene suddenly stopped, and the audience was silent.

"Quack!"

With a gunshot rang out, the competitors all jumped backwards into the water, and after a dive, they began to accelerate wildly as soon as they came to the surface.

"It's time to go, and the island nation team is in the first place among all the players! The island nation team showed their determination to win the championship in the final!"

"They were followed by Australia, then the United States!

"The fourth place is the Chinese team! Xu Jiayu showed a strong competitiveness after coming out of the water!"

The cheers of the audience were also deafening at this time, and the cheers of cheering for the Chinese team resounded throughout the venue.

After 50 meters, Xu Jiayu still followed closely behind Team USA's Hayden Stokel and maintained the fourth position.

That is, after turning around at 50 meters, Ryosuke Irie's lead was further extended to half a position.

At this moment, the camera showed the commentary seat on the sidelines, and in the commentary seat of the island nation team, their commentator was commenting while imitating Ryosuke Irie in the backstroke position, and it could be seen that he was in a good mood to be ahead so much at the beginning.

After turning around in the 50 meters, the German and Polish players started to be sluggish, overtaking Xu Jiayu one after another, squeezing him from fourth to sixth.

However, although he was surpassed, Xu Jiayu is still trying to catch up, and he is trying to catch up little by little.

"Xu Jiayu!

At this moment, the cheering and shouting of the audience came from the sidelines.

"Xu Jiayu come on!" The commentator also shouted excitedly at this time, although he was not optimistic about the Chinese team before the game, but after all, he was his own child, how could he not support it!

Perhaps inspired by the audience, Xu Jia swam forward with all his might, and surpassed the Polish team and the German team that surpassed him one after another, and came to the fourth position again.

The scene of being overtaken and then overtaken back suddenly excited the audience.

Xu Jiayu finally maintained his fourth position, after touching the wall, he almost collapsed directly on the pool wall, grabbed the handrail to stabilize his body, and the whole person coughed violently, it can be seen that this time he really tried all his strength.

The backstroke is followed by the breaststroke.

At this time, the most eye-catching thing is still the island team, outside of the breaststroke, Kosuke Kitajima began to play strongly after entering the water, and after a short time after coming out of the water, the lead of the island team was expanded from half a body to a large half of the body.

The commentators of the island national team on the scene also changed from the backstroke position to the breaststroke and swam with Kosuke Kitajima.

But at this moment, the scene suddenly burst into cheers.

Breaststroke is the weakest event of the Chinese team now, which has been shown in the relay preliminaries, so Li Xiang, who is second in the line, can be said to be the team's biggest weakness.

To put it mildly, how far he was thrown away meant how far Tang Hao would chase after the last stick.

But in fact, Li Xiang in the pool actually maintained the fourth position after entering the water, and there is a faint tendency to attack the third Australian team.

After a strong contrast between reality and expectations, the audience was indescribably excited.

Even the narrator looked excited at this time, and said in a trembling voice: "The boy is young!" (To be continued.) )
