Although one of them is in the national team and the other is in the provincial team of the Black Province, Liu Yuheng is also from the provincial team of the Black Province, he and You Jian are of the same age, and they once competed together for the place to enter the national team, and the final winner at that time was Liu Yuheng.

And this time, Liu Yuheng also firmly believes that the winner will also be him!

Liu Yuheng dared to sprint like this, that is, he dared to be sure, You Jian, who was in second place, could not seize the opportunity from the inner road to surpass him at the same speed.

You Jian also knew what Liu Yuheng thought, but even if this was the case, he didn't want to give up the opportunity to surpass Liu Yuheng!

The two competitors in front of them competed from the first lap, and the four in the back did not show weakness.

Shi Wenhui successfully grabbed the third position from the start of the race, and at this time he was following behind You Jian, also observing You Jian's movements in front of him, waiting for the opportunity to surpass.

In the first lap of the skating process, he and the Qingshi team players behind him have put out the outer lane to try to find opportunities, but soon returned to the inner lane position, ready to wait until the last two laps and wait for the opportunity!

And Su Liang, who fell to the last, seemed to have returned to the immobile state he had in the semifinals of the 1500-meter preliminaries yesterday, he curled up at the end with a very low body posture, saving his physical energy with the lowest cadence and the greatest kicking efficiency, making himself seem to disappear into the team of this race again.

1st, 2nd, 3rd lap......

In the blink of an eye, the 500-meter semi-finals have been more than halfway through, and Liu Yuheng, who is in the first place, is still in the leading position, but the whole process tells the consumption of physical energy that the leading skating has made Liu Yuheng's sliding speed decrease slightly, and the distance between You Jian and him behind him has also been shortened to 1 position.

The distance of 1 position has greatly reduced Liu Yuheng's margin for error in corners.

So at the first corner of the third lap, Liu Yuheng had to slow down when entering the corner to ensure his absolute control of the inside lane, although You Jian did not get a chance to overtake Liu Yuheng at this corner, but he had successfully closed the distance between him and Liu Yuheng - at this stage, the two of them were already close together.

Just like Liu Yuheng understands his ability, he also has the same understanding of Liu Yuheng.

Liu Yuheng's speed ability is excellent, but his speed and endurance are not particularly outstanding, which is one of the important reasons why Liu Yuheng committed a foul in the 1500m race yesterday.

In the 500-meter race, although Liu Yuheng will not seriously stall in the back, his stall will definitely still exist, and in the case of stalling, Liu Yuheng is bound to continue to maintain the previous full-speed sprint strategy.

What You Jian was waiting for was this opportunity to close the distance with Liu Yuheng, and after getting close to Liu Yuheng, he began to keep an eye on Liu Yuheng at full speed, this kind of urgent pressure from the rear also affected Liu Yuheng in front, making him more and more nervous about today's semi-final qualification.

——Liu Yuheng wants to win today's victory, as You Jian, who has always been entangled and competing with the other party since he was in the provincial team of Hei Province, of course, he also wants to achieve this victory in front of him.

He lost his place in the national team at the beginning, but this time, he wants to win it back!

In such a tense atmosphere, when Liu Yuheng took the lead in sliding past the middle point of the second straight of the third lap, the lap keeper on the scene rang the bell to indicate the start of the last lap!

The entire track seemed to be boiling at this moment, and everyone no longer had any residual strength and began to rush towards the finish line at full speed!

"Come on Liu Yuheng!!"

"Come on, Lao You!!"

Shi Wenhui !! Come on!!! ”

The competitors on the field are sprinting at full speed, and there are supporters in the audience cheering loudly for their supporters.

At this time, some ice fans remembered Su Liang, who had fallen last from the beginning, so they staggered their eyes and glanced at the last position - the speed skating suit Su Liang was wearing was black, which was quite recognizable.

It turned out to be such a wrong look, huh? What about Su Liang? Isn't he in sixth place?

After being startled, I took a closer look -, when did Su Liang jump to the third position?! And it's not in the inner way, it's the outside way.

At this moment, Su Liang is still on the outer road!

In a fright, the race on the field had reached the first corner of the last lap, and Liu Yuheng and You Jian, who were in the front, entered the bend close to the inside road, refusing to leave any chance for Shi Wenhui in the back.

Shi Wenhui had to lock the inside lane as well when entering the corner, but he was hesitating to swing to the outside lane to look for an opportunity before entering the corner, so he made some mistakes when he came back into the corner, and the angle of his body was not enough to control his sliding trajectory, unable to cling to the shortest curve arc, and leaked a small gap on the inside.

Shi Wenhui gritted his teeth and wanted to re-stabilize his route as soon as possible - it was just a small gap, as long as he regained control in time, there would be no problem!

As the thought crossed his mind, he felt a figure fly by his side at an astonishing inward angle.

Who is it?!

Shi Wenhui was shocked, but he soon remembered that the owner of this black skating suit was Su Liang!

When did he catch up after him?!

This thought flashed through Shi Wenhui's heart, but he didn't have the energy to think about it any more, and after the first corner, there was soon only the last half of the race left!

Can't lose!

He couldn't give this opportunity to Su Liang!

Shi Wenhui tried to pull to the outside lane again on this straight to overtake, but with his speed ability, he couldn't let him overtake the three players in front of him on the same straight slide, he could only try to cling to Su Liang as closely as possible, hoping to create a sense of pressure for Su Liang, so that Su Liang could make a mistake in the next last corner that allowed him to overtake.

It's a pity that Su Liang still held the third position stubbornly, and didn't give Shi Wenhui any chance, but it was Liu Yuheng and You Jian in front, who didn't have any control over the rear at all when they came out of the last corner, so there was a gap in their inner lane position that was enough for people to slide and surpass.

This is the last chance!

Liu Yuheng, You Jian, Su Liang, when the three of them came out of the corner, although Liu Yuheng You Jian still had a slight advantage, but Su Liang did not give up the control of his own glide and route like them when he came out of the last corner, and Su Liang, who came out of the innermost corner, almost pulled the distance gap between the two of them in an instant!

The audience in the audience stood up in shock after seeing this scene!

On the ice surface, the distance between Liu Yuheng, You Jian and Su Liang is almost indistinguishable with the naked eye, in the final sprint stage, Su Liang and the three of them have tried their best to stretch the ice blades under their feet forward, whether it is Liu Yuheng, You Jian or Su Liang, the final sprint posture of the three has obviously destroyed the balance of the body.

The hearts of the audience in the audience were all suspended at the highest point at this moment, and they did not expect that this semi-final would finally be such a duel on the tip of a knife that is difficult to see with the naked eye!

Who exactly? Who was the first to reach the finish line on the ice with the tip of a knife?!

The ice fans in the audience could only see that Su Liang and the three of them crossed the line on the ice almost at the same time on the track, and then the three who also destroyed their balance fell on the ice one after another after crossing the line.

No one thought that just the first group of the semi-finals would once again reach such a fierce and exciting point!

While the excited cheers and applause of the ice fans rang out, the anxious emotions also filled everyone on the scene - who is it?

Among the three people who just crossed the line at the same time, whose skate blade was the first to touch the line?!

Not only the ice fans were nervous, but the referee team on the scene also killed the scene in front of the monitoring screen for the first time, and the monitoring screen recorded the final picture of each player crossing the line in real time, but Rao is so, this recorded picture is still not so clear on the monitoring screen.

Because the gap between the second and third places was so small, only about one-fifth of the distance between the skates, the referee team had to repeatedly watch the video of the three players finally touching the line more than ten times before finally having a final unified answer!

The audience at the scene couldn't hold back the surprise in their hearts while waiting for the referee team to confirm the final ranking.

They already thought that after Su Liang's game yesterday, he should skate casually today, after all, he has already entered the semi-finals, which can be regarded as an okay result.

Especially after facing a team like Liu Yuheng, You Jian, and Shi Wenhui, which can be regarded as difficult to beat, Su Liang still did not give up, and accumulated strength to play such a beautiful turnaround battle that was almost the limit in the last circle!

"That's amazing! It's amazing......"

Many ice fans are genuinely amazed by Su Liang's performance.

In the face of difficulties, he refused to give up hope, and he still tried his best to solve the difficult dilemma - such tenacity, such spirit, and such strength actually appeared in a young player who was only 15 years old!

When the ice fans present thought of this, they couldn't help but think of the long commentary article about Su Liang posted by Huang Wei on the Ice and Snow Kingdom Forum the day before.

They all remember that the title of that article was "Su Liang, a genius who is enough to lead Huaguo short track speed skating into a new era!" 》

If when they read this article yesterday, they still felt that Huang Wei was overly exaggerated, but after today's game, they vaguely felt that everything said in this article may not be impossible?

As long as they imagine it in their hearts, they can't help but feel fascinated.

***

"I don't know if Su Liang can qualify for the finals!"

"However, whoever qualifies for the finals of this group deserves respect and congratulations - the competition in this group is really exciting, no one fouls, and they rush to the limit with their own strength within the fouls of the rules!"

"Yes, it was a beautiful match! It's really a pleasure to watch! ”

In the midst of the heated discussion and nervous anticipation of the ice fans, the audience at the scene also saw the referee team hand over a form of final results to the announcer.

"It's coming!! The final results are here! ”

So in an instant, the scene that was still lively and noisy suddenly fell silent, and everyone held their breath and listened expectantly to the sound coming from the live broadcast.

On the ice, Liu Yuheng, You Jian, and Su Liang, who had already finished the game, all stayed on the ice, waiting for the final verdict.

"The final results of the first group of the men's 500m semifinals of the second stop of the short track speed skating national league in Harbin -

First place: You Jian (Heilongjiang Provincial Team), 41.955 seconds, Q (promoted);

Second place: Su Liang (Beijing team), 41.988 seconds, Q;

Third place: Liu Yuheng (Heilongjiang Provincial Team), 42.120 seconds;

Fourth place: Shi Wenhui ......"

After the top three rankings and results were announced, the rankings of the remaining players were no longer important, and the fans at the scene had already erupted in thunderous applause and cheers after hearing these three results.

"Lao You did a good job!!"

Su Liang !! Terrible!!! ”

"Liu Yuheng, don't be discouraged, come on tomorrow!!"

In the audience at the scene, there were fans who were amazed at You Jian and Su Liang's final breakthrough to win and qualify, as well as cheers for Liu Yuheng, hoping that this young player would not lose his fighting spirit because of two consecutive days of defeat.

But even so, Liu Yuheng on the field was obviously silent at this moment, he clenched his fists, looked back at You Jian and Su Liang, and then ignored the comfort of some familiar friends behind him and beside him, put on the skate blade cover on his skate blade and left the arena.

On the field, You Jian waved his hand in the direction of the audience, and then looked at Su Liang deeply.

He gave Su Liang a thumbs up: "Awesome!" See you in the finals. ”

Su Liang also glanced at You Jian and nodded at him: "Thank you, see you in the final." ”

Chapter 50

Although he told You Jian to see you in the finals, with Su Liang's current physical condition, I am afraid that there is not much he can do in the finals.

When he left the field, Zhang Jianxin and Pei Jing, the leading coaches of the Beijing team, were already waiting for him off the field, and after seeing Su Liang, the two coaches quickly looked him up and down about his situation, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's okay, it's much better than yesterday when I left the 1500m, and it seems that although the physical consumption in the semi-finals is serious, it hasn't been overpowered.

Pei Jingyou wanted to explain that 'the finals will be leisurely for a while', but looking at Su Liang's calm face at this time, he felt that Su Liang should know it in his heart, and he didn't need to restrict Su Liang a few extra words at this time.

Zhang Jianxin was really a lot, he directly handed the physical fitness supplement drink that he had been holding in his hand to Su Liang, and together with Pei Jing, he hurriedly took the person to the rest area not far away, and the massage doctor of the Beijing team was already waiting there.

From here to the finals later, counting the second and third groups of the semi-finals, plus the 10 minutes of ice pouring before the finals and the women's 500-meter final, there will probably be less than 40 minutes of rest in total.

It is mainly through massage techniques to relieve muscle stiffness caused by lactic acid accumulation, so that players can recover a certain amount of exercise ability more quickly.

Because of the limited time, the masseur did not adjust the players according to the usual full set of massage methods, so it can be seen in each team, and the masseur's techniques are very varied at this time.

The masseur of the Beijing team is also familiar with Su Liang in the past two days, and he also has a certain understanding of which part of the muscles is the tightest and stiff after Su Liang's game, so after seeing Su Liang, he simply waved his hand, asked Su Liang to sit down quickly, and began to press Su Liang.

Seeing that Su Liang had already sat down to rest, he glanced at the masseur of the Beijing team, and after seeing the masseur's calm face and confirming that Su Liang's state today was indeed better than yesterday, Zhang Jianxin and Pei Jing were finally relieved.

Neither of them planned to talk to Su Liang again at this time to affect his rest, so they simply sat on the edge of the rest area and watched the situation on the field from a distance.

On the field, the players in the first group of the semi-finals have already withdrawn, and the players in the second group have just entered the field.
