Su Liang has no problem specifying, but Mu Yuansheng ......

Pei Jing suddenly felt that in the two preliminaries in the morning, Mu Yuansheng seemed to be silent, but he seemed to have advanced very smoothly, without any stumbling, and he hadn't attracted anyone's attention yet.

Thinking of this, Pei Jing was stunned, and then looked back at the morning game, but felt that in the morning game, Mu Yuansheng seemed to be racing with the rhythm of a very conventional short-distance dominant player, but during the period, the door did not occupy the leading position for a long time, and the middle door did not have a very obvious state of excessive physical consumption.

From start to finish, it seems to be unremarkable.

But in fact, you must know that these athletes who can come to the World Championships must meet the official standards of the World Championships in the 1500m event.

Even if these players are relatively ordinary for Su Liang's top players, what about Mu Yuansheng?

You must know that Mu Yuansheng is indeed talented in the 500 meters, but in the 1500 meters, he also just started to work towards the 1500 meters last season, and the focused 1500 meters training time is not much longer than Chu Rui.

Pei Jing thought about it and said secretly-this Mu Yuansheng, his quietness in the morning game, is his strength really in place, or is it true that the opponent's strength is average?

Tut.

Why is Jiang Yibo so lucky?

Not only did he pick up such an awesome son as Su Liang for nothing, but now it seems that his disciple has a talent from 500 meters to 1500 meters...... It seems that they are all unexpectedly good?

Chapter 298

The midday break is not too long, but overall it is enough time for the players to have a simple meal and recuperate.

And the players in the morning and afternoon door in the middle of the door can not eat too much, because although the meal can increase a part of the physical fitness for the players, but the process of eating and digestion is actually a burden on the athlete's body, such as the sports nutrition discipline in the Chinese national team, although it is not as well developed as abroad, but such basic knowledge is actually very solid.

During the lunch break, which is less than an hour and a half, the contestants will simply eat a little bit of nutritional meals, nutritional supplements and drinks that have been pre-planned by the dietitian, so as to ensure the body's energy while not making the body feel the burden of food digestion.

During the intermittent time when the players were eating, the organizers also conducted the group selection of the women's semifinals and men's semifinals in the afternoon under the witness of staff and notaries from various countries.

Compared with Chu Rui's 'death group' incident in the morning, the semi-final grouping in the afternoon is much more normal, such as the men's group, a total of 18 finalists are divided into 3 semi-final groups, Su Liang, Mu Yuansheng and Chu Rui belong to 3 different groups, each with its own opponents, and the overall grouping is very balanced.

As of the semi-finals, a total of two teams, the Chinese team and the Canadian team, have all advanced to the semi-finals, and South Korea, the United States, Japan, and Germany have two players each, which have occupied 14 of the 18 semi-final places, and the remaining 4 semi-final places belong to Russia, France, Sweden and Poland respectively.

On the short track speed skating section of the Ice and Snow Kingdom Forum in China, taking advantage of the noon break of the competition, domestic ice fans are also discussing the semi-finals in the afternoon.

561L: [The semi-finals in the afternoon looked like the grouping was a lot more reasonable.] 】

568L: [I'm laughing to death, I don't know if it's reasonable or not, I just know, the Swedish player...... The one named Tully Allison has been drawn into the same group as our Young Master Liang again - he is currently the only one left in the Swedish team, right? I don't think he's gone in this semi-final! 】

572L: [Poof, really, Tully's luck...... What should I say about this? 】

576L: [Actually, these two players of the Swedish team are really not easy to get the chance of advancing to the finals in terms of strength, just look at the other player of the Swedish team who didn't even make it to the semifinals, it's just, this Tully from the preliminaries to the quarterfinals to the semifinals all bumped into our cool boy, it seems to be particularly comedian.] 】

580L: [If I'm not mistaken, the last two such comedians were Samuel Adams of Team Canada and Harrick Blasi of Team USA, right?] Haha, these two are both excellent players, so it seems that the Swedish team's Tully Allison has a bright future (dog head)]

588L: [Laugh to death, don't be funny, I guess when this Tully of the Swedish team plays in the afternoon, he should have a melancholy look on his face......]

***

Not only was his face melancholy, but Tali was already wondering if he hadn't been religious enough when he prayed to the gods, or if he had offended the gods in some way—how could he have been punished in such an outrageous way??

Even the coach of the Swedish team, Olivier, is thinking about some metaphysical issues at this time, but there is no way, this draw is carried out under the notarization of everyone, everything is very in accordance with the regulations, and they have no room for protest at all.

Just like in the last quarterfinals, Chu Rui of the Huaguo team met death

The same group, Allison is just 'lucky' to be in the same group as Su Liang of the Huaguo team for three consecutive games.

The rankings and results of the two of them, as well as their nationality, are all doomed, and there is a reasonable and legal probability that they will be drawn into the same group.

Of course, the problem now is not just that Tully was drawn to the same group as Su Liang - the bigger problem is that after Tully was drawn to the same group as Su Liang, in addition to Su Liang, he still needs to face the other 4 opponents.

In this semi-final grouping, the strength of each group of players is actually quite balanced, like their opponents in this group, in addition to Su Liang, there are Benjamin Williams of Canada, Lee Jung-tae of South Korea, Naomoto Ueki of Japan and a player from Poland.

There are a total of 6 players, and there are only two final promotion places, and among these 6 players, whether it is Su Liang from the Chinese team, Benjamin Williams of Canada, or Lee Zhengtai of South Korea, and Naomoto Ueki of Japan, they are all famous athletes in the 1500 meters.

Of course, there is also a hierarchy between the famous players, among which Canada's Benjamin Williams and South Korea's Lee Jung-tae are the strongest in this group - this is mainly because both of them have advanced to the finals or won medals in the past World Championships and Winter Olympics, but if you want to talk about the most recent season, it is obvious that Su Liang is more well-known.

Either way, if only two of them were to be chosen, Tully Allison didn't look like he had a chance of making it to the finals.

But this kind of thing is just to say, if you really want to divide it according to this, then a player like Tully Allison just messes up in the game, what chance is there to compete for?

In the world's top events such as the World Championships and the Winter Olympics, it is always the time when the probability of dark horse players appearing is the highest, because in such a competition, even if these players know that their strength may not be enough, but in order to finally qualify or win a medal, they will go all out, and strive to give themselves the opportunity to sprint towards the final victory little by little - if the god of luck favors, maybe they will really have a chance to get the fruits of victory in such a field.

In short, although Tully Allison was a little stunned when he first got the group list, but after figuring it out, Tully Allison suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind.

After thinking in his heart for a moment, he couldn't help but look up at his coach Olivier: "Coach...... You say, if I skated to the rhythm of Sue of the Huaguo team all the way in this match, what would be the result? ”

Olivier didn't expect Allison to come up with such a bizarre idea.

"Glide to Sue's rhythm the whole time??"

This is actually equivalent to betting directly on a player who has a chance to advance to the finals in this group of competitions, and then follow his rhythm all the way, if this player can really make the cut, then in the case of Tully can bite the other party's rhythm, it may be possible to take advantage of this wind to seize the hope of the final sprint to advance.

This is not uncommon in the past, or it is more popular among players from the same national team – in fact, it is a kind of teamwork to win together.

However, such an approach is definitely not undemanding.

This requires a high level of tacit understanding between the players, so that the players who follow the skating behind can cooperate with the opponents in front of them in time.

Otherwise, if you and the opponent are not tacit enough, when the opponent slows down, what you feel is not to reduce the speed together to save physical energy, but a kind of difficulty in speed being restricted by the opponent.

In the same way, if you can't keep up with the pace of acceleration in time when the other party is speeding up, then the final result is that the other person has overtaken the front at the speed, and you can't keep up with the rhythm of the other party, and you are directly left far behind and cannot continue to follow.

In short, this method is not impossible, the question is - can Allison really be able to keep up with Su Liang's rhythm?

There was a bit of hesitation in Olivier's eyes.

However, Allison, who had been afraid of Su Liang before, felt that the more he thought about this idea, the more feasible it became, and his eyes became more and more determined.

"Coach, if I fight alone, in such a group, maybe there is no chance of victory and promotion, but if I follow behind the Huaguo team Su...... Then at least I'll have a chance to follow him through the final victory! ”

Chapter 299

Gothenburg, Sweden, March 19 at 1:30 p.m. local time, 8:30 p.m. domestic time

After the short break at noon, the afternoon schedule has also kicked off, and about 30 minutes before that, there are on-site staff to inform the teams of each country of the afternoon schedule and other information one by one, and all players will also prepare in advance within the specified time to complete the afternoon event check-in and other related work.

Here in the Huaguo team, Chu Rui and several others are ready to appear at any time, but the first to start is not the men's event, but the semi-finals of the women's group.

Compared to the men's division, the women's competitors were given more time from the heats to the semi-finals, after all, the women's group only had a 1500m heats in the morning, and there was no rest of the race scheduled after that, and they have been waiting until now.

But that doesn't mean the women's event will be easier than the men's.

Especially after the relatively fierce women's preliminaries in the morning, there was a long gap in the middle, and then the semi-finals in the afternoon, during which the adjustment and maintenance of the state during this period is actually a test for the athletes.

Fortunately, these players in the women's group of the Chinese national team, although they are young, are all very tenacious, especially Jiang Yufei, who temporarily obtained the substitute place, is even more energetic, vowing to seize this opportunity, not to embarrass the national team, but also to earn a better future for themselves.

The number of semi-finals in the women's group is no different from that in the men's group, with a total of 3 semi-final groups of 6 players in each group, and the top two players in each will advance.

Jiang Yufei, Lin Meng and Liu Yuqing of the Huaguo team drew the 1st, 2nd and 3rd groups of the semi-finals respectively, and the same as the Huaguo team, there are 3 players who advanced to the semi-finals of Canada and South Korea, and only two players from Germany and Japan have successfully advanced, and the remaining teams have only 1 person to advance or all eliminated.

In the live broadcast room of the domestic sports channel, Lin Fangzheng and Liao Yuwei also said with a smile after counting these: "In the 1500-meter individual event of this year's Short Track Speed Skating World Championships, both the women's team and the men's team have all advanced to the semi-finals, which can also be said to be an unprecedented good result." ”

"yes."

Lin Fangzheng also nodded with emotion, and at the same time turned the topic of the two to the semifinals of the three groups of women's 1500m that were about to start.

"So far, the players of the Chinese team have worked hard to achieve good results, but then, with the arrival of the semi-finals, the players will face a new and more difficult challenge."

Lin Fangzheng's voice was sonorous and emotionally complex, full of expectations for the next players' performances, but inevitably there was apprehension in it.

After all, as long as the ice fans who follow the game have a scale in their hearts, they clearly know that for the girls of the women's team, skipping the quarterfinals is bound to be a difficult battle.

However, the girls who were already waiting to warm up looked very determined.

"It's not just our Huaguo team players who skipped the quarterfinals, everyone is the same!"

It was Jiang Yufei among the three who spoke.

Among the three players in the women's team, Jiang Yufei was originally just Yao Yao's substitute, but perhaps it was precisely because of this identity as a substitute that Jiang Yufei's heart was more determined and fearless.

For her, every step she takes and steps up the field is a victory.

In the quarterfinals of the men's group in the morning, Jiang Yufei was also the most excited of all the players when watching Chu Rui sprint to the final with his perseverance and hard work to successfully advance to the semifinals of the men's group.

Of course, she understands her own shortcomings, and she also understands how difficult her opponent is, in the semi-finals, she will compete with famous players from South Korea, Canada and other countries in the same group for the only 2 places to advance to the finals, which has little chance for her, but for Jiang Yufei, after the selection of the national team's main selection team, she should not have had the opportunity to stand on the field in front of her!

It would have been a miracle for her to be able to stand on the stage of the preliminaries.

And Chu Rui's firmness also inspired her, giving her a firm belief to continue to seize the opportunity in front of her to sprint forward.

Pei Jing, who was originally encouraging the three girls on the sidelines, had his eyes lit up after hearing Jiang Yufei's words, and patted Liu Yuqing and Lin Meng's shoulders with the same certainty.

"Yufei is right - it is not only our Huaguo team that jumps directly from the intensity of the preliminaries to the intensity of the semifinals! And long before the schedule came out, our team had repeatedly trained you, and before the morning preliminaries, we also repeatedly emphasized the physical distribution and state maintenance of the preliminaries and the afternoon semifinals. ”

Pei Jing chattered while scanning the girls in front of him.

He is not usually in charge of the women's team, but he also knows very well how hard the girls of these women's teams work in their usual training.

Thinking of this, he looked at the three girls of the women's team in front of him solemnly: "Don't be afraid, in this arena, everyone is equal - the only criterion for determining victory or defeat is your strength." ”

"I don't have to say more, just one - girls, show your usual training strength, don't leave yourself with regrets!"

The three girls in front of them are all the top women's short track speed skating players in China today, but they are now participating in the world's top short track speed skating events - no one can guarantee that they will still qualify for the same qualification at next year's World Championships.

Cherish the opportunity of the moment.

Whether it was Liu Yuqing, Lin Meng or Jiang Yufei, the same fighting spirit and firmness flashed in their eyes.

Looking at the firm gaze in the eyes of the three girls, Pei Jing nodded with a smile, and motioned for a few girls to follow the guidance of the staff who were already shouting, and go to start the final warm-up before the game.

In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, Lin Fangzheng and Liao Yuwei obviously also noticed Pei Jing's final lecture with a few girls before the game.

"Before the girls officially debuted, Coach Pei gave a pre-game lecture for several players, which seemed to be very effective, and we can see from our footage that several girls who have warmed up on the field now look murderous."

Indeed, as Lin Fangzheng said, maybe it was Pei Jing's encouragement, or it was simply stimulated by Jiang Yufei.

After Liu Yuqing and Lin Meng started to warm up on the ice, the state of the whole person was indeed different from the state before the game, as if they had broken free from some kind of nasty emotion that was originally sticky and shackled, and their fighting spirit was completely high.

Jiang Yibo, who was far away in China, watched the game with Xiao Budian, and looked up at the girls who looked like they were fighting in the live broadcast camera, and couldn't help laughing: "This old Pei, the level of training has improved?" ”

On the side, Nuan Nuan, who was obediently sitting on a small stool, looked up at her father strangely, and then seriously cast her eyes on the TV screen in front of her.

A little cub looks very serious about the game, even if it is not Su Liang's game that is about to start at this time, the little guy does not show a trace of impatience at all.

Looking at his youngest son's appearance, Jiang Yibo couldn't help but think - could it be that his family is also quite suitable for short track speed skating?
