Chapter 64: Athens (4)

"Coach, do you want to be so nervous?" At breakfast time on the day of the game, Li Xianfeng watched Yuan Cheng's hand holding the spoon and drinking porridge trembling constantly, and just brought the spoon to his mouth, but half of the drink was lost.

"No, I'm not nervous, you're not nervous, I'm not nervous." Yuan Cheng argued weakly.

"Old Yuan, this kind of small scene, why are you nervous like this?" Liu Bin laughed on the side, but his hands were also shaking irregularly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little stiff.

"What's going on?" Li Xianfeng looked at Liu Haijian and wanted to exchange glances with him, but Liu Haijian just lowered his head and ate, and didn't look at him at all.

"So I'm not nervous about the whole team." Li Xianfeng thought about it carefully, it is normal for the coaches to be nervous, you must know that the Chinese men's sprint team has not participated in the Olympic Games for more than 20 years, Li Xianfeng and Liu Haijian are also considered to be big girls on the sedan chair, the first time, so the coaches are still unsure of what kind of results they can get.

"The weather was nice today! It's a good day for running. As soon as he walked out of the door of the hotel, Li Xianfeng felt the breeze caressing his face, and the sun was not hot, but shining on people's bodies, making people feel warm.

A group of Huaguo track and field team, led by volunteers, came to the largest stadium in Athens, Zeus Stadium. Although there is still some time before the start of the competition, the stadium is already full of people, and for Greece, which has a tradition of athletics, athletics is one of the favorite sports of the spectators.

"Welcome track and field athletes from all over the world to Zeus Stadium! Audience friends, please give your warmest applause! The enthusiastic host surprised the athletes who had just entered the stadium, and the audience in the Zeus Stadium stood up and cheered for all the athletes with their maximum decibels.

"It's a pleasure to participate in the competition in such an atmosphere~" Li Xianfeng closed his eyes and felt the sound of the audience around him, followed by a sense of excitement that he had never felt before, "I should have a pretty good performance today!" ”

"Come on! Xianfeng! Come on! Don't stress too much. After Li Xianfeng's warm-up was finished and before going to the check-in office, Yuan Cheng still didn't forget to nag a few words.

"Take it easy, it's just the first round." Li Xianfeng said confidently.

"Hello, hello!" Shingo took Takahashi Komatsu and Tsukahara Naoki to the check-in office early, nodding and greeting Green and Gatlin.

Although Shingo is an Asian flyer and has some international fame, several proud American athletes didn't even look at him, which made Shingo very embarrassed in front of his younger brother.

"Oh? This Chinese is finally here! Gatlin's eyes lit up as he saw Li Xianfeng and Liu Haijian arrive at the check-in office.

"Hey! Xianfeng Li, you don't want to be eliminated in the first round! According to the matchup, we are going to meet in the second round! Gatlin took the initiative to come to Li Xianfeng and said.

"Don't worry, you won't be disappointed." Li Xianfeng smiled and said.

"Why did Gatling say hello to Lee Hsien Feng!" There was fire in his eyes, he couldn't figure out why his American father didn't care about him, but he took the initiative to talk to Li Xianfeng.

"Xianfeng, do you know Gatlin?" Liu Haijian asked curiously.

"yes, we've played in the Golden League before." Li Xianfeng explained.

"I see." Liu Haijian said with some envy.

"The first group! Get ready. As the officials of the Olympic Organizing Committee finished the roll call, the official start of the competition was announced.

"It's not fast." The first group of races ended quickly, except for the superior Green, who easily ran to 10.07 seconds, the other three athletes who advanced were all around 10.20 seconds, and the slowest one even reached 10.22 seconds

"It's fine!" Liu Haijian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this result, unlike Li Xianfeng, who had absolute confidence, he was still skeptical about whether he could break through the first round, but the results of the first group made him feel reassured, if the next few groups were at this level, then he was still very promising.

"The third group is coming!"

"It's finally me!" Under the guidance of the volunteers, Lee Hsien Fung and seven other athletes entered the arena, and although it was only the first round of the competition, the audience was still enthusiastic, and the applause was even warmer than the final in which Lee Hsien Fung had participated before.

"The next one is my country's player Li Xianfeng! He's in a group with Jamaican star Powell, along with Gardel and Detaki who have the quality to challenge for the next round, oh our Lee Hsien Feng looks very relaxed, he is waving to the coach in the stands! Originally, this kind of track and field preliminaries would not be broadcast live, but given that this is the first time in more than 20 years that a Chinese athlete has participated in the 100-meter sprint, the central five still took 10 minutes to broadcast it.

"Isn't Xianfeng a little too relaxed?" Coach Yuan frowned and waved his hand to Li Xianfeng, after all, except for Powell and Li Xianfeng, the other athletes in the same group had a relaxed expression, and the other black people all had serious expressions.

"Old Man Yuan, you are too unconfident in Xianfeng!" Pei Xiaoxiao glanced at Yuan Cheng with disdain.

"Ahem, you know what. I'm cautious! Yuan Cheng hurriedly coughed to hide the embarrassment in his heart.

“On Your Marks!” With the referee's prompt of all preparations, Li Xianfeng's heart was completely calm, and in the face of his first shot in the Olympic Games, Li Xianfeng was full of confidence.

"Come on!" Li Xianfeng silently cheered in his heart, and then propped his hands on the ground.

“Get set!”

"Bang!"

"The race started and Lee Hsien Fong's start was very smooth! Only after Powell, in second place. ”

"Who is this?" After 30 meters, Powell, who was superior in this group, thought that his surroundings should be empty, but he didn't expect that after a sweep, there was actually a yellow-skinned person chasing after him, and this person was thought by Powell to be playing soy sauce before the game.

"It's surprisingly good!" Li Xianfeng felt that his body was like a car that had just been filled with gas, and he had inexhaustible strength.

"Excellent! Li Xianfeng followed closely behind Powell, as long as he maintained such an advantage, he could advance to the next round! The host's tone slowly became excited.

"This guy actually bites me so hard?" Feeling that his dignity was being challenged, Powell's speed began to increase, and the back-up power was his Jamaican player's forte, and he didn't believe that he couldn't get rid of Li Xianfeng behind him with 80% of his strength!
