Almighty Athlete Chapter 53: Strength of B-label players
Because the 1500m middle distance race is a race without a track, twelve players will participate in each preliminary round. The top five in each group and the other four with the best results will enter the half. In the final. The novel is updated quickly and steadily. lwχ520. Starter
In the first round of the first round of the 1500m preliminaries, Bahrain Rams, the biggest favourite, won a score of 3 minutes, 32 seconds and 89, and was easily promoted.
In the game, Ramz led almost all the way. Obviously his strength was absolutely dominant in this group. Even the second place in the group was dropped by him for 2 seconds.
"Good job! Ramz, the group is the first to qualify. Congratulations!" Ali, who is also a Bahraini player, congratulated the court.
"It's your turn to play next, come on!" Ramz encouraged and then said: "Don't take it lightly for a while, South Africa's Deventer, Britain's Badley, and Morocco's Iguy. Germany is in your group, they are all players who have the strength to reach the finals."
"And Zhang Guan." Ali continued.
"Don’t worry about Zhang Guan. Didn’t I tell you before? Zhang Guan didn’t even meet the Olympic A standard. An Olympic B standard player, you just ignore him. He is not the Zhang Guan that year." Ram I said.
"From the 100-meter preliminaries this morning, Zhang Guan seems to be doing very well. His results are the fastest among all contestants." Ali said with some concern.
"Ali, you're too worrying. The 100m and 1500m are completely different. If I'm Zhang Guan, just give up the 1500m project earlier and put my energy on the sprint, at least it can guarantee the sprint. "Gold medal," Ramz said, patting Ali's shoulder, and then said: "The chance to participate in the Olympics is not a few times in our life, and we have never won an Olympic gold medal in Bahrain. If we get a gold medal, it will become Hero of Bahrain. Come on!"
......
The players in the second group are already on the starting line.
Zhang Guan is heading towards the surrounding circuit, except for Ali, the Bahraini. But the players' sports vests have their national flags printed on them.
"South Africa, Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States, Morocco, Brazil, cartels, Ethiopia, Bahrain... this group of players can have a full range of nationalities. I have heard that Kenya and Algeria are also good at middle distance running, but this No one. Morocco’s mid-run seems to be very strong. I remember Ramz is a Moroccan, and later naturalized to Bahrain. If the Moroccan runs fast enough, I will follow." Zhang Guan Wang To Iguid from Morocco.
At this time, several other contestants also plan to defeat their opponents and obtain qualifications.
Many people have already noticed Zhang Guan. After all, the reputation of Zhang Guan is there. If he appears on any field, it will arouse the attention of many people.
However, most of the 1500m middle distance runners did not regard Zhang Guan as a competitor. After all, they entered the Olympic Games with the B mark. Under normal circumstances, the Olympic B mark contestants are all round You may be able to enter the second round with good luck, but absolutely missed the final.
Another point is that China’s strength in middle distance running has always been the end of the world. Everyone’s attention is focused on a few middle-run powers. Few people pay attention to the strength of Zhang Guan.
Zhang Guan has only participated in the Asian Games once in the middle distance running event. Asian players may know that Zhang Guan has won the championship in the Asian Games, but they are not from Asia. Obviously, they will not care about the Asian Games. Yes, I don’t know that Zhang Guan has achieved good results in middle distance running.
The audience on the scene had high hopes for Zhang Guan. In the eyes of the Chinese audience, Zhang Guan is the undefeated God of War. As long as he appears on the field, it represents the first and the victory.
......
"The game begins! The players start to merge. Oh, Zhang Guan's merge was a bit unsuccessful and was blocked by other players!" The commentator's tone clearly showed a sense of anger, as if the one blocking Zhang Guan The player did something that was reasonable.
Zhang Guan does not start well. Although his pass is very good, Zhang Guan is not an athlete who specializes in middle distance running, so it is not something Zhang Guan is good at. In domestic competitions, Zhang Guan can occasionally take some advantage, but in the Olympics, the strong are like clouds, and even a contestant is stronger than domestic athletes, Zhang Guan naturally won't take advantage of anything. .
Although Zhang Guan did not fall behind, it was caught in the middle, and there is a player on his right. It can be said that the current Zhang Guan is not advancing or retreating.
If it is other athletes, such a sandwich-like position is definitely very uncomfortable, not only to maintain a certain rhythm with the athletes in front, but also to be careful of the athletes next to them, to prevent them from jamming in front of themselves. But Zhang Guan has the help of the "follow-and-run" skills. He doesn't have to worry about this at all. He just needs to use the skills and run down with the previous players.
Preliminaries have different levels, with some of the world’s top strong men and some weak chickens that barely reach the Olympic B target. In the Olympic Games, how big is the gap between the strong and the weak chicken? Ramz, who has just appeared in the first group of the group stage, has already given the answer. Ramz's final score was 3 minutes, 32 seconds and 89, while the last Australian player in the first group had a score of 3 minutes, 53 seconds and 95, a difference of more than 21 seconds between the two.
At this time, the leader was a Brazilian player of Sosa. The natural enthusiasm and impulse of the South Americans made him rush to the front after the gunshots sounded. But his leading speed can only be said to be quite satisfactory, neither fast nor slow.
For those capable players, it is more than enough to keep up with this speed, but those players with poor strength have to work very hard to keep up with this speed.
According to the normal situation of 1500 meters, this time period should be that everyone keeps a rhythm and runs steadily, there will not be much change in the ranking, but in the middle position, there is a person who does not want to follow this way, then Bahraini Ali.
Ali has been paying attention to Zhang Guan. At this time, he found that Zhang Guan followed behind even more in a hurry, and the rhythm of running was very good. It was exactly the same as the player in front. Ali instantly remembered the scene at the Asian Games two years ago.
"The Asian Games two years ago also looked like this. At the beginning, Zhang Guan was running honestly, but when the last sprint, it ran out of abnormal speed~IndoMTL.com~ directly dumped us at Behind. It seems that today's Zhang Guan has to be re-applied, so no, I have to mention the speed, so that even if I can't get into the top five of the group, if I finally rank according to time, there is an advantage."
Ali thought of this, he turned out of the crowd and rushed directly to the leading position. Then Ali began to speed up, obviously preparing to take the rhythm faster.
"Ali ran to the front, he speeded up!" South African player Deventer saw this scene, but his heart was very happy, and he also speeded up immediately.
"It’s best to eliminate some of the weak first, especially those athletes who are bidding for the Olympics B. They are already hopelessly advanced, so don’t mess with it, honestly follow behind!"
There was a sense of pride in Devonter's eyes, and he shook off and followed.
"Ali is leading very fast, he uses this speed to lead, I guess only half of them can keep up." Derwentre turned his head and looked back when he used the front curve. As he expected, there have indeed been several players left behind.
"It seems that there are more followers than I thought. Hey? Why is Zhang Guan also keeping up!" (To be continued.)
