“…… 44.72 seconds! Ye Qin successfully qualified for the men's 400m final, and in the second half of the game, Ye Qin showed his strong ability to maintain his speed as always......

The audience at the scene and in front of the TV couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing that Ye Qin surpassed the other players in the end and successfully won the first place in the group.

This kind of thing is not uncommon, whether it is in the track and field field or on the court.

Everyone can understand the pressure on Ye Qin's body.

Many people are actually worried that Ye Qin will give up the men's 400m in order to participate in the semi-finals of the men's 200m, but fortunately, at the last critical moment, Ye Chin did not disappoint others and successfully qualified for the men's 400m final.

But it's not over tonight.

19 o'clock is just around the corner, and at 19:25 will start the semi-finals of the men's 200m.

On the sidelines of the track and field, many athletes who had just participated in the men's 400-meter semi-finals at the moment, whether they advanced or not, stayed and found a suitable seat in the audience next to them, waiting for the start of the men's 200-meter semi-finals.

Like Jason Gaby and Usse Bot before them, the 200m riders are concerned about Yechin's performance in the 400m, and many 400m riders are also concerned about Yechin's performance in the 200m event.

Sean Merritt and Jimmy Warner, both sitting in the spectator seats, are teammates on Team USA and have won multiple titles in the men's 4×400m together, but they don't really have a good relationship with each other.

On the one hand, the two are direct competitors in the men's 400m, from the US Championships to the World Championships to the Olympics, and the two have competed in the 400m events in many venues.

In an era when Jimmy Warner pretty much dominated the men's 400m event, Sean Merritt was just a late challenger.

But this challenger is quite flamboyant in his conversation and in front of reporters, and has repeatedly provoked Jimmy Warner in public, which makes Jimmy Warner not particularly fond of Merritt many times.

However, both of them are sitting together in the audience at the moment, waiting for the semi-finals of the men's 200m, but there is no contradiction.

After the U.S. Championships, before they came to the World Championships, the leader of the U.S. track and field team had already explained that they wanted to make their spearhead unanimous.

Whoever won the championship in the 400m event would have been an American athlete, but if Ye Qin won the men's 400m again, it would be almost inevitable that American track and field would be wiped out again in the sprint event, as in last year's Olympics.

This is the first time that such a major challenge has been encountered in more than half a century since the rise of the American sprinting program represented by Jesse Owens in the world.

In the rest area, on a massage table at this time, Ye Qin was lying on the bed, and Zhuang Wei was massaging and relaxing the muscles of the whole body. This kind of high-intensity and intensive competition is not an easy task even for a top athlete like Ye Chin.

"The IAAF has communicated with the IAAF before, and the 200m and 400m schedules should be staggered in the future, and there will be no more such a situation."

Looking at Ye Qin lying on the massage table, Yuan Guohua next to him frowned slightly, and whispered to Chen Zhongzhou and Zhuang Wei beside him.

"This matter should have been communicated and coordinated since 07." Chen Zhongzhou pursed his lips beside him, and said with some dissatisfaction in his heart.

"The IAAF is happy to see a player who has a strong influence in the men's 100m, 200m and 400m, but it doesn't necessarily want to see such an athlete win gold medals in all three events in the same competition." Yuan Guohua sighed lightly and shook his head slightly.

As for the 200m and 400m schedules, the World Championships are limited by the timing of the competition, which has always been relatively close. At the 1995 World Championships in Athletics, Michael Johnson won gold medals in the men's 200m and 400m, but the timing of the two races was staggered. However, in the men's 100m and men's 400m, there are also rolling races.

In the current sprint events, the men's 100m and men's 200m are the best in the world, and these two events must be given priority. However, it is not necessary to say that there is no way to coordinate.

At least the 200m and 400m heats, the semi-finals, a few hours apart, it is always possible.

According to the news fed back from the Athletics Association, at least in the next World Championships, this aspect will definitely be considered in a coordinated manner, and there will be no more such thing as Ye Qin participating in the finals as soon as he participates in the semifinals.

Of course, according to Ye Qin's current situation, one World Championships will participate in several events one after another, at most only one or two sessions, and in a few years, I am afraid that one or two events will definitely be reduced.

"Actually, it's okay, as long as the finals don't come together."

Lying on the massage table, Ye Qin heard the discussion of several people, slowly opened his eyes, and replied with a smile.

The semi-finals of the 400-meter have been completed and successfully qualified, he has a lot of peace of mind in his heart, and in the next men's 200-meter semi-finals, he can now run without too many scruples.

However, Ye Qin's heart was also not calm at this time.

The men's 200m semifinals are not difficult for him to qualify for the final now, but there is always a thorn in his heart.

Last year's defeat in the semi-finals of the 200m was arguably the rare one of his careers. Maybe it was because he was too excited at the time, but even if more than a year has passed, there is no way for the research center to come to a conclusion about whether he ran or didn't rush at that time.

After all, his whole state seems to have not been so excited since then.

The sudden release of that huge pressure, as well as the expectations of countless spectators at home, after winning the men's 100 meters, with the affirmation of himself in his heart, and the blessing of various aspects, the result was lost, which is always a pity for Ye Qin.

After that, he actually had a bit of a psychological impact on the rush, but fortunately, in the 400-meter final later, the requirements for the start were not high, and after winning the 400-meter championship, he participated in the 4×100-meter relay with others, so he walked out of the race.

"This time, hold steady!"

Getting off the massage table, Ye Qin took a gentle breath and slowly spit it out several times, allowing the tense muscles and nerves to relax.

"Come on!"

Yuan Guohua and Chen Zhongzhou watched Ye Qin's movements, and they all had smiles on their faces, and encouraged softly.

"Hmm."

Ye Qin nodded heavily, he knew that the inner pressure of several people was actually not less than him, and this was sometimes the case in sprint races, people in the game had pressure, but the rest of a team also had various worries.

"Let's play!"

Someone next to him gently patted his palm, and Ye Qin only noticed at this time that Zhang Peimeng, Su Bingtian, Gu Kai and Lu Bin, his teammates in the 4×100 meters, all walked not far from him.

When Ye Qin's eyes turned away, Su Bingtian also smiled and clenched his fists and made a cheering gesture.

Ye Qin smiled, reached out and touched the shoulders of several people one by one, then looked at the indoor warm-up track, took a breath lightly, and walked to the check-in area.

……

Olympic Stadium in Berlin.

When the time reached 19:25, the atmosphere in the whole stadium was extremely enthusiastic again.

The men's 200m semi-finals officially began, starting with the first semi-final group with top men's 200m athletes such as Yusse Bol and Sean Crowder.

As last year's Yenching Olympic champion in the men's 200m and world record holder, Yusse-Both's impact on the event is unmatched.

His opponent, Sean Claude, was the men's 200m champion at the 2004 Athens Olympics, and even if the results have not been satisfactory in recent years, no spectators think he will pose a threat to Yusse Both, but it is still worth looking forward to seeing the top athletes face off.

In addition to a few people, the strength of the other players should not be underestimated.

Born in 1989 and just turning 20 this year, Panamanian player Alonso Edward is also expected by many track and field fans to perform.

Not many people know much about this new rising youngster, but he has run the 10-second mark in the 100m and the 20-second mark in the 200m this year, and his performance can be said to be very amazing. In this year's South American Athletics Championships, he has won the men's 100m and 200m championships, which can be said to be the new generation of international athletics.

This was the case in international athletics, with the Bahamas rising Derrick Atkins at the '07 World Championships, Richard Thompson rising at the '08 Olympics, and by '09, new talent was also emerging.

It's just that these newly rising athletes, whether they are short-lived, or can stabilize their positions, improve step by step, and enter the ranks of the top powerhouses, still need more events to test.

After a gunshot, the first group of the men's 200m semifinals officially began.

From the short time of more than ten meters after the start, the audience at the scene and in front of the TV saw that Yusse Both, who was in the third lane, easily ran in front.

From this year's men's 100m and the previous preliminaries, everyone can see that Yusse Bot is in amazing form.

Sixty or seventy metres later, even in the corners, Euse Bot was already quickly catching up with France's David Allette in the fourth lane.

After entering the straight at the corner, Yusse Bot was even more comfortable ahead of everyone.

In the final 30 meters, after establishing his first position, Yusse Bot was running forward almost with the inertia of his body.

The final result of the race was 20.08 seconds!

For Yusse-Both, it was like a scatter to run this result. He was followed by Panamanian players Alonso Edouard and Sean Crowder. Several of them successfully advanced to the men's 200m final.

At 19:33 in the evening, after the first group of players in the men's 200m semifinals left the field, the second group of players soon ushered in.

The list of men's 200m semifinalists appeared on both the big screen and the TV screen.

First Lane, Steve Mullins, Jamaica;

Second Lane, Jason Gaby, USA;

the third, Yechin, China;

fourth, Ramyrguliev, Azerbaijan;

Fifth Lane, Wallace Spearmon, USA;

Sixth lane, Marlon Devenish, England;

7th lane, Martial Mbanchok, France;

Eighth Lane, Paul Hesse, Ireland;

When Ye Qin appeared on the field, the eyes of the entire stadium and the audience in front of the TV fell on him.

Last year's Olympic Games, Ye Qin unfortunately exited and failed to qualify for the men's 200m final, and at this year's World Championships, everyone wants to see if there will be another tragedy.

If Ye Qin can successfully advance to the men's 200m final, then tomorrow's final, Ye Qin will once again start a battle of the century with Yusse Bote.

In addition, it is also extremely eye-catching to the American Jason Gaby, who has been fully reported in the international media during the day today, saying that Jason Gaby is afraid of fighting, and there are injuries that have recurred, but now the result is that Jason Gaby is on the field again.

At this time, on the track and field, Jason Gaby's expression was cold, as if the various reports about him in this day did not affect him in the slightest.

He is still the top athlete in the men's 100m and 200m events, and he will be competing with Yechin until tomorrow's final, where he will challenge Yusse Both.

“On your marks!”

As the game time approached, the starters on the sidelines gave the players the command to take their positions.

Ye Qin gently covered his chest, and at this moment, he could hear that his heart seemed to be beating a little harder.

This kind of pre-match nervousness has not been encountered for him for a long time. Even when he ran the men's 100m final a few days ago, his mood was much calmer than this.

Ye Qin raised his head and looked at the audience next to the bend, took a light breath again, and adjusted his breathing.

He understands that last year's men's 200m race had a great impact on his psychology, although he usually doesn't see it very much, and even his own subconsciously ignores it, but at this critical moment, it is still inevitable.

"Where you fall, you have to get up!"

Ye Qin silently gritted his teeth, followed the other athletes on the sidelines, and stepped on the runner with both feet.

Keep your eyes on the surface of the track at the Berlin Stadium, try to get rid of those cluttered thoughts as much as possible, and let your attention be turned to the game.

The noise at the scene gradually subsided after the players took their places, but many viewers in front of the TV set were nervous at this moment, staring intently at Ye Qin, for fear that he would repeat the same mistakes in today's game.

Many people clasped their hands together and prayed silently.

“SET！”

The starter's voice rang out again from the sidelines.

The eight runners on the field almost subconsciously got up and made a squatting start.

Syllable!

The guns of the game rang out!

All eight athletes on the field quickly crossed the starting line.

At the moment when the gunshots rang out, Ye Qin felt that his start was not bad, not fast or slow, and he should not have rushed. To be able to have such a start, for him who is nervous at the moment, it should be considered more perfect.

“…… It's game on! On the sideline media commentary seat, Mu Jiang's voice sounded excitedly, "Ye Qin's start was very good and steady...... Hey......"

But before he could take a few steps, a second gunshot rang out from the sidelines.

Ye Qin's footsteps paused, and the whole person seemed to be a little confused!

The second one rang out, and it was the recall gunshot.

Slowly stopped, Ye Qin turned his head to look at the sidelines, and sure enough, the starter signaled for someone to run away.

“…… Someone ran away! Mu Jiang came out with a voice of infinite regret, "The runner is Azerbaijani player Ramyr Guliyev from the fourth lane, and this rush will be very unfavorable for Yechin, and the psychological pressure will be very great." We hope he can stabilize and not be affected by this rush! ”

Almost instantly, the atmosphere in the entire Berlin stadium exploded, and many spectators in front of the TV were also a little nervous, all of them were scolding.

The on-site camera deliberately stayed on Ye Qin's body for a few seconds, and let the audience at the scene and in front of the TV see Ye Qin's solemn brows at the moment.

Could it be that the scene of last year's Yenching Olympics will be repeated?

Many people have this question in their hearts.

"I'll slow down, be steady!"

After the first shot was snatched away, the string in Ye Qin's mind was about to break.

He didn't know if this shot was deliberate, even if it was deliberate, it was not unusual at all, on the one hand, it was able to fight for a good result, and on the other hand, it was also to put pressure on other players.

He was under a lot of pressure now, and he adjusted his breathing again, and he was very sure that he must adopt a particularly conservative strategy to run this second shot.

"It's okay to slow down in front, and I can chase it back in the back!"

Just now, Ye Qin was still thinking about running at a more normal pace, but now he understands that he has to take the safest way.

Missing a semi-final in the 200m at the Yenching Olympics put a lot of pressure on him. If he loses again in the semifinals of the World Championships this time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to face the semifinals of the 200m for a long time in the future, or even in his entire career.

It didn't take long for the game to start again!

The commotion in the stadium gradually fell silent again.

At this time, whether it is the audience at the scene or in front of the TV, the tension in their hearts is stronger than that of Fang Cai.

Under the audience seats, Yusse Both, who had just finished the first group of the semifinals, had just finished the semi-finals, and his expression became unconsciously solemn at this time.

He knew the pressure Ye Qin was under at the moment, and he was also a little worried that Ye Qin would make another mistake.

Although Ye Qin did not participate in the men's 200m final, he almost won the gold medal nine times out of ten. But the pride of an athlete makes him still hope that Ye Qin can advance to the final and face each other head-to-head.

Syllable!

The guns of the game rang out again.

This time, almost everyone saw that Ye Qin's movements were a point slower than the other athletes, and it seemed that he only began to start to accelerate when the guns were completely over and everyone else had already taken about one step.

Such a scene can be said to be quite rare in international competitions.

After Ye Qin started, he was waiting to see if there would be another gunshot.

One step, two steps, three steps......

The game continues......

The shouts and cheers from the sidelines seemed to bubble up instantly.

At this moment, Ye Qin's tense nerves quietly relaxed.

He could feel Jason Gaby next to him in the second lane as he quickly chased after him after the start.

But the game had already begun, Ye Qin looked at the runway in front of him, and quickly picked up.

In just 200 meters, eight runners swept across the track at lightning speed!

On the yellow timing board next to the finish line, when the top runner in this group crossed the finish line, everyone saw the results!

19.96 seconds!

The first in the group was Jason Gaby in the second lane!

Second place went to Wallace Spearmon in the fifth lane with a time of 20.14 seconds!

“…… Yechin! Ye Qin was third in the group with a time of 20.20 seconds!! Ye Qin has been promoted! Ye Qin advances to the men's 200m final!! After missing out on one of the most important matches of last year's Yenching Olympics, Ye Qin finally advanced to the final! ”

And after the red figure in third place crossed the finish line, Mu Jiang's voice was almost as excited as if Ye Qin had won another championship and broken the world record.

The audience at the scene and in front of the TV also applauded at the same time. After seeing Ye Qin cross the finish line, the nervousness seemed to be released at this time.

At the moment when the gunshots rang out just now, everyone saw Ye Qin have an obvious pause, as if he didn't start until the others started running.

In sprint races, the starting reaction itself has a great impact on the runners, and this obviously sluggish movement can be said to be several 0.1 seconds passed.

Fortunately, Ye Qin finally got the promotion place with his strong strength!

His starting reaction in this group was 0.541 seconds, which can be called his slowest start since Ye Qin participated in the competition, and it can also be said that it is one of the slowest starts in the men's 200m event at the World Championships!
