Chapter 236: Relay Final

After Liu Xiang won the championship in the 110-meter hurdles, the country was jubilant.

The article prepared by the media in advance was sent out as soon as possible, and netizens also discussed it enthusiastically.

This is Liu Xiang's first gold medal at the World Championships, filling the final void of a Grand Slam and becoming the first athlete in the world to combine an Olympic champion, a world champion and a world record in the men's 110m hurdles.

It's a real bar king!

Naturally, everyone is proud of it.

At the same time, he won two gold medals in men's events at the World Championships, which is another historic breakthrough in Chinese track and field.

Of course, Yang Hao's re-winning of the men's 100m gold medal is also a historic breakthrough in Chinese track and field.

In recent years, Chinese track and field has brought too many surprises to the audience.

"Cool and cool! Liu Xiang is awesome!"

"It's a grand slam!"

"It's not easy, Liu Xiang finally won the World Championships!"

"The first 110m hurdles Grand Slam player in history, the true world hurdles king."

"A historic breakthrough in Chinese athletics!"

"At the 2005 World Championships, Yang Hao won the first gold medal in the men's World Championships in Chinese history, and it was also the most valuable men's 100m gold medal. In this World Championships, Liu Xiang also broke the curse, won the gold medal, and achieved a Grand Slam to become the world hurdle king."

"One word, it's really cool!"

"I'm already satisfied, it doesn't matter if I win or lose the rest of the game."

"I'm satisfied, but it's better if I can add to the cake in the next games."

"There is still something to see in the 4100-meter relay, and the Chinese team has entered the final of the World Championships for the first time, and I hope to have a good performance."

"Reaching the finals is already a breakthrough, don't put pressure on them, just let go of the finals."

"Yang Hao is the leader of the Chinese sprint, and the audience's attention is on him, and the pressure must not be small."

"If the 4100-meter relay results are not very good, I hope the audience will not spray Yang Hao, he himself must also hope to lead the team to achieve better results, it is not an exaggeration to say that he carried the entire relay team on his shoulders, and the pressure is unimaginable."

"Yes!"

......

September 1.

At 21:10 p.m. Imperial Capital Time.

Nagai Stadium is brightly lit, and there are hardly any empty seats in the stands.

This is the first time since the opening of the World Championships that the seats are full is on the night of the men's 100m flyer battle.

Today is the second time.

Because today is the men's 4100m relay final.

In the eyes of many people, the 4100-meter relay is more exciting than the men's 100-meter.

In addition, there is another very important factor, that is, the small day team also entered the finals, and they performed well in the preliminaries.

With the home team, there are naturally more spectators on small days.

Inside the stadium.

The eight teams that entered the finals came out of the corridor and entered the scene.

They are the beautiful national team, the Jamaican team, the England team, the Chinese team, the small day team, the Nigerian team, the Brazilian team, and the German team.

At this appearance, the scene suddenly resounded with huge cheers.

Among them, the most cheering for the small day team is the home, after all, it is the home field.

And there are a lot of cheers for the Huaxia team, because there are thousands of spectators from Huaxia at the scene, and they are sitting in one area, and the sound is very loud.

Yang Road.

Yang Jian was commenting on the scene: "The players have entered the stadium and the competition is about to begin! The 4,100m event is the most important team event at the World Championships, and the number of spectators in the stands can also be seen from the fact that it is the second time that the crowd has been full after the men's 100m fly, which shows the anticipation of the crowd."

….

"I believe that the audience in front of the TV is also looking forward to it, because our Chinese team also reached the final under the leadership of Yang Hao, which is also the first time that the Chinese men's 4100m relay team has entered the final of the World Championships. In addition to Yang Hao, the other three team members are the first

Wen Yongyi in the first stroke, Zhang Peimeng in the second stick and Hu Kai in the third stick, they worked together to set an Asian record of 38.15 seconds at last year's Asian Games, and I hope to break through myself today and create more glory!"

When Yang Jian explained, the players of each team had already walked onto the track, measured the steps first, and marked them first.

This is important.

On the side of the Huaxia team, Yang Hao didn't move, but looked at Zhang Peimeng and them: "Brothers, don't be nervous, don't be afraid, let's play games, right?" The beautiful national team, the Jamaican team, the England team, these are all bosses, the four of us are the team that fights the boss, don't care if you can pass the level, let's talk about it!"

"Brother Hao is right, it's over!"

"Rush Rush!"

Then, the four of them shouted cheers over their shoulders and went to their respective positions.

Start preparing for the race.

Yangdao live broadcast room.

"Yang Hao was encouraging his teammates just now, this game is different from the Asian Games, there are too many strong teams. For example, the beautiful national team, the first baton is Davis Paton, the second batter is Wallace Spearmon, the third batter is Tyson Gaiyin, and the fourth batter is Dixon, their individual strength is very outstanding, and they are the biggest favorites to win the championship.

The Jamaican team's performance in the preliminaries was very bright, the first Anderson, the second Usain Bolt, the third Nesta Carter, and the fourth Asafa Powell.

In addition, the England team, as a traditional strong team, although there are no particularly outstanding star players, their individual strength is not bad, and the team cooperation is very good, and the results in the world series have never been bad.

There are also the hosts, the Little Day team, who finished fourth at the 2001 World Championships, and the 2004 Athens Olympics, who also finished fourth. After losing to the Huaxia team led by Yang Hao in the Asian Games last year, now the strength has improved again, and the preliminaries ran into 38.20 seconds, and there should be a breakthrough in the final, which should not be underestimated.

......」

Just when Yang Jian introduced the teams, the players were ready for the game.

Yang Hao stood in his starting position, moved his body in place, took a deep breath, and adjusted the rhythm of his breathing.

Compared with the men's 100m final, he has no bottom in his heart in this game.

Because this is the first time he has led the Huaxia team to stand on the stage of the World Championship.

The opponents are very strong, so strong that he can't win the fight on his own.

It's a bad feeling of not being in control.

Thinking of this, Yang Hao glanced at Hu Kai who was on the third bat, Zhang Peimeng on the second bat, and Wen Yongyi on the first bat.

"Brothers, it's up to you!"

Meanwhile.

Wen Yongyi, Zhang Peimeng and Hu Kai have also made up their minds.

They didn't contribute in the preliminaries, and it was Yang Hao who came to cover it.

In today's last game, I have to fight hard to say anything.

In the stands.

Su Bingtian was a substitute and failed to play.

Although his current strength is similar to Wen Yongyi and Hu Kai, he lacks tacit understanding with others after all.

Next to him, Yuan Guoqiang saw the envy in his eyes and said, "You have to work hard, and when your strength is improved, it will be a sure thing to enter the relay team."

….

"Hmm."

At that moment, the voices of everyone in place sounded on the radio.

「on-your-rks!」

This password meant that the game was about to start, and the atmosphere in the stadium suddenly changed.

Tension was in the air.

The audience of the little day clenched their fists and looked intently at the small day team of the third lane.

Cheer and pray silently in my heart.

on the runway.

Hearing the sound of the password, the pressure in Yang Hao's heart also increased suddenly.

He really wanted to lead the team to a relay medal.

After all, during this time, everyone trained together, and I don't know how much sweat was shed.

He didn't want those efforts to go to waste.

But he also knows how hard it is to win a medal.

"Hoo ......"

Yang Hao shook his head and drove these thoughts out of his mind.

Be calm!

Be focused!

Soon, the first runners of each team squatted down in front of the starting line.

The Huaxia team is in the 7th lane, and the pass is not good.

But it can't be helped.

The finals are ranked according to the results, and the best ones are the beautiful national team and the Jamaican team.

Before the starting line.

Wen Yongyi took a deep breath and cheered himself up.

Whether you can win a medal this time, whether you can run into 38 seconds, it is not Yang Hao, but him, Zhang Peimeng and Hu Kai.

The World Championships is not the Asian Games, and the opponents are very strong in personal strength, if they fall too far behind, they can't catch up with Yang Hao by himself.

"Believe in yourself! You can do it! You can do it!"

Wen Yongyi silently cheered himself up.

This is, the sound of the ready password sounds.

「set!」

Wen Yongyi immediately bowed and raised his hips and made a good starting posture.

The audience also held their breath and waited for the starting gun to sound.

The same is true for the runners on the track, even the third and fourth runners are very nervous.

This is a relay race, if the first stick is fouled, you don't have to run later, you will be eliminated directly.

"Smack!"

The moment the electronic starting gun sounded, Wen Yongyi kicked the runner hard with both feet and ran forward reluctantly.

However, because he started in the corner and was close to the outside track, he didn't accelerate as fast as the best runners.

Media broadcast area in the stands.

Yang Jian's voice kept ringing.

"It's game on! The situation in the corners is not obvious, Wen Yongyi has to withstand the pressure!"

"Come on!"

At the same time, the Little Day crowd in the stands was shouting frantically and cheering for the Little Day team.

The sound resounded through the stadium.

And the audience in Huaxia is also cheering for the Huaxia team.

The atmosphere was very hot.

on the runway.

Wen Yongyi's face was distorted, and he clenched his teeth.

He knew he was weak, not as good as Davis Parton of the beautiful national team, not as good as Anderson of the Jamaican team, and not as good as Markham of England.

Even among the 8 first-place players, the strength is the bottom.

So from the start of the start to fall behind.

But he won't give up!

In front of him are teammates, Zhang Peimeng, Hu Kai, and Yang Hao.

He's going to do the best he can.

Wen Yongyi's blood is boiling in his body, his eyes are firm, and he is indomitable!

Second Stick Pre-Run Zone.

Zhang Peimeng saw Wen Yongyi running towards him, and immediately made preparations, and when he reached the marking point, he directly started to accelerate.

….

Handover area.

"Pick it up!"

A loud and trembling shout came.

Zhang Peimeng immediately stretched out his hand backwards, and when the baton was in his hand, he quickly withdrew his arm, and then swung his arm forward vigorously.

Behind.

As soon as Wen Yongyi handed him the baton, a sharp pain came from his right leg.

Cramps.

But he didn't deal with it immediately, and his eyes were fixed on Zhang Peimeng.

"The handover was smooth and smooth!"

"Now the Huaxia team is in 6th place, behind the Xiaori team!"

"Zhang Peimeng accelerates!"

"Speed up!"

When Yang Jian shouted, Zhang Peimeng was running with all his might.

He knew what he needed to do.

He is the second best individual player in the team

hand, he wants to reduce Yang Hao's pressure as much as possible.

Even if it's just 0.01 seconds.

on the runway.

The beautiful national team has been in the lead from the moment the gun was fired.

On the Jamaican side, Usain Bolt, who was the second to hit the bar, was running at high speed with his long legs.

The gap between him and the beautiful national team is also narrowing.

But.

The straight was so long, and it soon arrived at the handover area, and the beautiful national team took the lead in completing the handover.

The third was Tyson Gayin, who started in the 200m event and has strong cornering ability.

On the side of the Huaxia team, Zhang Peimeng recovered a place and completed the handover faster than Xiao Ri.

Hu Kai is also a runner in the 200 meters, but his individual strength is not strong.

As a result, the gap between the other teams in the corners was widened again.

Even the Xiaori team behind him, with a more tacit handover, gradually approached Hu Kai.

The situation is critical.

But.

Yang Hao, who saw this scene, was not as nervous as he was just now.

It's good that there were no mistakes in the first two handovers.

on the runway.

Seeing that the handover area was getting closer and closer, Hu Kai also gritted his teeth.

He knows he's not good and he's getting older, so this could be his last Worlds.

Must be cherished.

There can be no regrets.

"The beautiful national team is the first to complete the handover!"

Yang Jian's tone was anxious, and he couldn't wait to push Hu Kai.

The same goes for the Chinese audience in front of the TV.

I can't wait to play on my own.

The officials and athletes of the Chinese delegation in the stands also clenched their fists and secretly exerted their strength.

Tian Mi, who was watching the game at home, frowned even more.

She was worried about Yang Hao.

The Asian Games are behind, and Yang Hao can rely on hard power to catch up.

This is the World Championships.

The opponent's individual strength is not weak.

At this time, the Jamaican team also completed the handover, followed by England and Nigeria.

When Hu Kai arrived at the relay area, the Xiaori team also arrived.

The handover was completed almost simultaneously.

on the runway.

Yang Hao held the baton tightly and withdrew his arm.

This is the most tense and exciting moment, and it is also the most difficult moment for Yang Hao.

Because the disadvantages are great.

"Completion of the handover!"

"Yang Hao got the baton!"

"Speed! Yang Hao!"

Yang Jian's tone changed.

In his eyes, Yang Hao is the hope of the Huaxia team!

Many miracles have been created.

In front of the TV, the audience silently shouted cheers for Yang Hao in their hearts.

….

"Come on, Yang Hao!"

It seems that he heard everyone's voices, and Yang Hao on the runway was like a car increasing its horsepower, and his speed increased suddenly.

[In view of the general environment,

Almost instantly, the little day contestant was pulled away.

"Yang Hao is speeding up!"

"Yang Hao!"

Now.

The situation on the field is very clear.

Because Tyson Gayin, who was in the third base, created a huge advantage for the beautiful national team, Dixon, who was in the fourth base, was far ahead at the moment.

Jamaica's fourth baseman, Asafa Powell, is on the hunt.

In third place is England, closely followed by Asafa Powell.

Nigeria is in 4th place.

on the runway.

Yang Hao stared at the finish line.

Teammates have done what they are supposed to do.

He is the last stick and the last hope.

He won't let everyone's sweat go to waste.

The Chinese relay team has not won a medal?

Then let him make history!

At this moment, in Yang Hao's eyes, the four people in front of him were all prey.

It's 4 antelopes.

And he's a cheetah.

If you can't catch up, you have to starve, and you have to starve to death.

Thinking of this, Yang Hao's eyes turned red.

"Yang Hao!!"

"Speed! Speed up!"

"Don't leave any regrets!"

Yang Jian almost forgot that he was commentator.

He only knows how to cheer for Yang Hao now, and he only has Yang Hao in his eyes.

Even if your voice is hoarse, you have to shout.

I also have to cheer for Yang Hao.

In front of the TV.

The audience only felt that their bodies were hot, and they couldn't even breathe.

Too nervous.

"Caught up! Yang Hao caught up with the Nigerian team!"

"Fourth!"

"England ahead!"

"Yang Hao!"

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the finish line, Yang Jian clenched his fists: "Is there still a miracle?"

"Yang Hao!"

"Yang Hao!"

Yang Jian didn't know how to explain it at all, his brain had lost the ability to think, and he just kept shouting Yang Hao's name repeatedly.

"Yang Hao!"

Now.

Yang Hao only has the end in his eyes.

Although it has come to 4th place, history has been made.

No one will blame him!

But he was not satisfied!

Unwilling!

You can't give up until the game is over.

20 meters.

10 meters.

Just before the final crossing line, Yang Hao caught up with the English player.

"Rush the line!"

"Yang Hao caught up with the English player at the end!"

"Almost at the same time, it's hard to tell with the naked eye."

"Who's the 3rd?"

Yang Jian was extremely nervous.

The audience in front of the TV set was the same, nervously waiting for the results to come out.

At this time, the time seems very long.

Every second counts.

Make everyone anxious!

At this moment, the results flashed on the big screen.

1. The third lane, the beautiful national team, with a score of 37.78 seconds

2. Fourth lane, Jamaica team, 37.86 seconds

3. The seventh lane, Huaxia team, score 37.90 seconds

4. Fifth lane, England, 37.91 seconds

......

"The effective part of Yang Hao's body hit the line first!"

"No. 3 in the Huaxia team!"

"This is the first World Championships relay medal ever won by the Chinese team, and it is also the first World Championship relay medal!"

….

"37.90 seconds, a new Asian record!"

"The boys of the Huaxia Relay Team have made history! Yang Hao! Zhang Peimeng! Wen Yongyi! Hu Kai!"

"They are the pride of Huaxia! Let's remember their names!"

Yang Jian was excited.

In the stands.

The officials, coaches, and staff of the Chinese delegation, as well as Liu Xiang, Su Bingtian and other athletes, all cheered excitedly.

You must know that at the Athens Olympics and the World Championships in Helsinki, the Chinese team did not even qualify for the competition, let alone win medals.

In this World Championships, Yang Hao led the Chinese team not only to the finals, but also to win the bronze medal for the first time.

This is a historic breakthrough.

This bronze medal is much more precious than the gold medal at last year's Asian Games.

Not an order of magnitude at all.

Get Ya

The gold medal of the Games can only be said to be a strong team in the Asian Games.

And winning the bronze medal in the World Championships can be said to be among the world's strongest teams!

It's worth celebrating!

"Haha! It was a great run!"

"Bronze medal, I couldn't have thought of it before the game!"

"Look at my sweat."

The leaders of the delegation were also nervous just now.

"Old Yuan! You've done a good job!"

The head of the delegation patted Yuan Guoqiang on the shoulder.

He is the head coach of the relay team, and he naturally has merit in his achievements.

"The main thing is that the four of them ran well, especially Yang Hao! He put this medal together!"

Hearing Yuan Guoqiang say this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Everyone is not blind.

Although the first three players ran well and played well, they did not play well to win.

When Yang Hao got the baton, there was a big gap with the England team.

There is also the Nigerian team in between.

This medal was spelled out by him.

It is impossible for any sprinter in the world to do better than him.

"When you go back, you must reward Yang Hao heavily!"

"Yes, big prize!"
