American player Spearman crossed the finish line third. However, he was actually much slower than Zhang Guan and Bolt. He was left behind by a large distance.
"These two are so fast!" Spearman has performed at his best, but compared to Zhang Guan and Bolt, he is still far behind.
"It was Zhang Guan who was probably the first to cross the line just now. He seemed to have surpassed Bolt at the last moment. Zhang Guan is worthy of the title of King of Track and Field. Even though this is the event that Bolt is best at, Zhang Guan won in the end. We won. I don’t know what their final result will be." Spielman looked at the idea display on the sidelines, and then showed a horrified expression.
"19.17 seconds! 19.19 seconds left! Oh my god, both of them ran within 19.20 seconds! This is another world record!"
Spearman's final score was 19.76 seconds, so when Spearman crossed the finish line, the final score had not yet appeared on the electronic monitor on the sidelines. However, after the results came out, the fanatical atmosphere once again reached a new level.
"19.17 seconds! Zhang Guan ran 19.17 seconds. He broke his own world record of 19.30 seconds and improved the world record by 0.13 seconds. He also broke the Olympic record of 19.32 seconds held by Michael Johnson. Record!" the commentator shouted.
However, the subsequent Olympic records were directly ignored by everyone. Just the four words "world record" can already ignite everyone's enthusiasm.
"Zhang Guan has broken the world record again. How many times is this now?"
"It's the fourth! 100 meters, long jump, 1500 meters, and now the 200 meters. This is the fourth world record Zhang Guan has broken!"
"So far, Zhang Guan has participated in the finals of four track and field events, and in these four events, he has broken world records!"
"It's incredible! Zhang Guan is so strong! Unprecedented and unprecedented! He fully deserves the title of King of World Track and Field."
"19.17 seconds! I remember two years ago, some people said that Johnson's world record of 19.32 seconds was unshakable, but now Zhang Guan is already a full 0.15 seconds faster than him."
"It's such a pity for Bolt. He also ran a time of 19.19 seconds, which also exceeded the original world record of 19.30 seconds held by Zhang Guan. If Zhang Guan hadn't been faster, Bolt would have become the one to break the world record. The person who records it!”
"This seems to be a repeat of the history of the 100-meter dash final. In the 100-meter final, Bolt also broke Zhang Guan's original world record, but was beaten by Zhang Guan and could only finish second. Unexpectedly, in the 200-meter The same is true in the meter event. Bolt was still beaten by Zhang Guan, and he still had to settle for runner-up. This is really in line with the old saying, how can you be brilliant when you are good!"
"Yeah, I also think Bolt is the most tragic figure in this Olympics. He broke the world record twice, but lost to Zhang Guan both times. He is also an excellent athlete. I I even felt that this was a bit too cruel for him.”
"Don't forget that the same is true in the 1,500 meters. Didn't Ramz also break the original world record? But he still lost to Zhang Guan! I think Zhang Guan can be regarded as a 'world record' killer."
While people cheered for Zhang Guan, they also felt sorry for Bolt. Especially when the camera showed Bolt kneeling on the ground crying, it won the sympathy of many people.
Competitive sports are so cruel. Perhaps athletes can be called winners as long as they surpass themselves, but there is only one champion.
Finally, Bolt controlled his emotions. He stood up and looked at the electronic monitor on the sidelines.
"19.17 seconds! A new world record! Zhang Guan broke the world record again!" Bolt was not surprised because he could feel that Zhang Guan's speed would definitely exceed the world record of 19.30 seconds.
"My time was 19.19 seconds. I was able to run within 19.20 seconds. I performed perfectly and ran at my highest level. However, I was still 0.02 seconds slower than Zhang Guan!"
Bolt sighed helplessly. Although it was only 0.02 seconds slower, Bolt knew that these 0.02 seconds might be a gap that he could not overcome in his life. This is not a competition beyond 20 seconds. If you practice more, you can improve your performance by 0.1 seconds. When it comes to their level of competition, every 0.01 second improvement is impossible. This can no longer be solved by training. The thing is, if an athlete of this level wants to improve his performance by 0.01 seconds, he needs the right time, place and people, he needs to be in excellent condition, he needs to perform at a super level, and he even needs incredible luck.
"I lost the 100-meter dash. I can also say that it is not my main event, but I still lost the 200-meter dash. This time I can't find any reason. This is the gap in strength. I can finally understand it now. Powell's mood has changed." At this moment, Bolt thought of his predecessor Powell, the one who no longer had the courage to challenge Zhang Guan and was willing to be "second in the world".
"Facing such a powerful opponent, it is really difficult for people to have the courage to challenge!" Bolt sighed silently in his heart.
…
"World record, Zhang Guan has broken the world record again! Incredible, so incredible. If someone asks me who is the greatest athlete of this century, I will tell him this name - Zhang Guan!" The ESPN commentator did not hesitate to praise. In this way, I would like to congratulate Spielman for winning a bronze medal for the US team.
At the same time, in Europe, Africa, South America, and Australia, Zhang Guan's name was constantly mentioned by people. This name that everyone was already very familiar with did something that shocked everyone. On the Internet, which spreads information the fastest, the name "Zhang Guan" has once again become the most popular search term.
Some people were happy and some were sad. The Chinese audience celebrated at this moment, but the Jamaican audience was extremely disappointed.
Bolt, regarded as an idol and a hero by the Jamaicans, an athlete who had high hopes before the game, ultimately lost in the event he was best at, and lost at the last minute.
In the studio of Jamaica Television, Bolt's father has stopped talking. 20 seconds ago, he was still looking cheerful, but now. It can be seen from his expression that he is very disappointed, even sad. This huge contrast also reflected his bad mood at this moment.
But if you think about it carefully, Bolt's father did not lie. Bolt did run within 19.30 seconds, and even ran within 19.20 seconds. This is exactly the same as what Bolt's father said. If it is normal, Under such circumstances, in an event such as the 200-meter dash, a result that is 0.1 seconds faster than the world record will inevitably win the final championship. This is why Bolt's father is confident.
But an accident happened. Bolt was much faster than Zhang Guan two years ago, and Zhang Guan was also much faster than himself two years ago.
This is life, always full of countless accidents and coincidences. No one knows what will happen next moment, but no one will worry about the unknown ahead, because there is no road ahead, only walking through it, Only then will it become the road, the only road that belongs to everyone...
The second chapter was delivered, and I wrote it based on the previous chapter, but it was still hacked. I am indeed a hard-working writer who only pays a few cents for a chapter subscription, but I worry about that. But how can we not feel emotional about some things? This is the land where I was born and raised. I love her, and that’s enough...
