In addition to Zhang Guan, the fifth group also includes Jamaican player Frater and Netherlands Antilles player Martina, both of whom have the ability to run within 10 seconds. In addition, Japanese player Naoki Tsukahara is also in this group.
Generally speaking, the strength of this group of players can be said to be clearly divided between strong and weak. The three players Zhang Guan, Flatt and Martina have basically occupied the three promotion places, and the best results of the others are just seconds away, even if they want to get the best result. All four are difficult.
Eight athletes stood on the track, ready to start. With a gunshot, the race officially began.
The strength of the contestants in the semi-finals is not as serious as in the preliminary round. Basically, those who can enter the semi-finals are athletes who have met the Olympic A standard. Therefore, at the beginning of the competition, the competition is very fierce. After the athletes start, they chase each other and do not give in. .
Zhang Guan's start this time was relatively average, and his reaction time could only be considered average. After the start, he did not take the lead in the first thirty meters like he did in the morning's preliminary race.
Zhang Guan has participated in the 100-meter preliminaries and the tennis semi-finals today, and has just completed the 1,500-meter preliminaries. Although he has physical strength potions to recover, continuous high-intensity competitions still consume a lot of energy, especially when focusing. In terms of speed, Zhang Guan is not in the best condition.
This is a kind of human inertia. When people continue to do the same thing, the novelty will slowly disappear without a trace, replaced by more and more numbness, and the level of concentration will naturally decrease.
Thirty meters later, it was Japanese player Naoki Tsukahara who was in the lead. But his lead ended there, as Martina behind him had already caught up.
In just one second, Martina was already on par with Nobuharu Asahara, and at fifty meters, Martina had already surpassed Naoki Tsukahara and ranked first.
There were some Japanese spectators at the scene, waving Japanese flags and cheering for Tsukahara Naoki loudly. At present, it seems that Tsukahara Naoki has a very good start. At the 50-meter mark, the race is already halfway through, and he is still in the second position. , looks promising to advance.
Coach Kobayashi Keihe on the sidelines clenched his fists, with a ferocious look on his face, like a dormant beast.
"Come on, Tsukahara-kun, Asahara Nobuharu is destined to fail to qualify. You are now the only hope for our Japanese team!"
Not far away, Director Yu still had a calm expression. Although Zhang Guan still lived in the middle, he always believed that Zhang Guan could successfully qualify.
"Zhang Guan's performance seems to be not as good as in the morning!" Bolt said from the sidelines.
"That's natural. After all, it's the first track and field competition in the morning. And now Zhang Guang has just participated in the 1,500-meter preliminaries, and I heard that he also participated in a tennis match in the afternoon, which will consume all aspects of his body. If he can still If you keep the same state as in the morning, then what the hell will happen!"
While the two were talking, the situation on the field also changed. First, the Jamaican player Flatt caught up with Nobuharu Asahara less than 60 meters away, and then surpassed Nobuharu Asahara without any suspense. At this time, the Jamaican player showed explosive power in the middle and late stages, and Asahara Nobuharu was simply unable to parry.
Lack of explosive power in the late stage is a common problem among Asian players, and the strongest point of the Jamaican players is precisely their ability to continue to explode in the middle and late stages.
"Being passed by Flatt, Tsukahara-kun is now third. No matter whether he is third or third, he can advance to the next round!" Coach Keiwa Kobayashi's fists were clenched even more tightly, and his nails were all wet. It had penetrated into the flesh, but he seemed not to notice the pain, but the next second, he suddenly screamed.
It was not because of the pain, but because Tsukahara Naoki was passed by a third person again.
The one who surpassed Tsukahara Naoki was naturally Zhang Guan.
Lack of explosive power in the late stage is a common problem among Asian players, but Zhang Guan is an exception. Zhang Guan's late sprint is obviously the most powerful in the world.
Zhang Guan's absolute speed is higher than that of other players, but it takes a process to increase his speed to the extreme. Once Zhang Guan increases his speed, he can crush all opponents.
At this time, on the field, after nearly 70 meters of racing, Zhang Guan's speed has reached its extreme. In just a blink of an eye, he has surpassed Tsukahara Naoki.
For Zhang Guan, this is just the beginning. There are two players in front of him, Martina and Flatt.
…
"Martina is getting stronger again!" Flatt looked ahead. He was already trying desperately to catch up, but it was still difficult to catch up with Martina.
Martina is from the Netherlands Antilles, and Flatt is from Jamaica. They are both players from the Caribbean, so they know each other relatively well and have competed many times. It can be said that they win each other. burden. Today's Martina is obviously a bit stronger than Flatt.
"We are almost reaching the finish line. Martina is in good condition today. It seems that he can't catch up. But if he is second in the group, he can still qualify." Flatt thought of this and was about to slow down, but suddenly thought of Zhang Guan.
"By the way, where is Zhang Guan? Why didn't you see him?"
At the same time, Zhang Guan passed by Flatt.
"Well, just as I was thinking about Zhang Guan, he came and overtook me!" Flatt was filled with depression, but it was normal for him to be overtaken by Zhang Guan. But at this time, Flatt realized that he had become third in the group and was on the verge of being eliminated. He did not dare to slow down anymore, but sprinted forward with all his strength.
…
"Awesome, the group crossed the finish line first!"
There were only fifteen meters left from the finish line, and at this time, Martina had a winner's smile on his face.
Martina took the next step, and Zhang Guan had already caught up with Martina.
"It's Zhang Guan! He's catching up!" Martina was shocked. Zhang Guan rushed up faster than him, and Martina was completely unprepared.
Martina took another step forward. This time, Zhang Guan was already on par with Martina, and seemed to be slightly ahead.
At this time, Martina finally realized that something was wrong. Zhang Guan was much faster than him. In the first step, Zhang Guan was still behind him, but in the next step, Zhang Guan was already at his side. According to this calculation, Zhang Guan would be next to him in the next step. will surpass him.
Sure enough, when Martina took another step, Zhang Guan had already appeared in front of Martina.
"Zhang Guan! This is Zhang Guan! Is this the strength of the world record holder? It only takes three steps for him to surpass me!"
Martina knew that there was a huge gap in strength between the two sides and it was impossible for him to overtake.
Martina's final result was very good, 9.96 seconds, which was much faster than other players. After all, it was a rematch, and a score of less than ten seconds was enough to stand out from the crowd.
But Zhang Guan was faster than him. Zhang Guan's speed was 9.90 seconds, ranking first in the overall score in the rematch!
