It should be said that, just as Jiang Wentao and others had expected before the Olympics, once someone in the track and field team could win a gold medal, it would have a great effect on boosting the morale of the entire track and field team.
Therefore, whether for the purpose of national honor or simply for the performance of the Chinese team, in the past two days since the start of the track and field schedule, everyone has been looking forward to the Chinese team's championship moment.
And when the gold medal moment really came, the shock and excitement of his teammate winning the gold medal undoubtedly immediately brought new ambitions to Fang Yu who was about to start the competition.
Victory and gold medal.
What wonderful words these are!
Now that we are already standing on the stage of this final, how can we not have expectations for these two words?
Fang Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the expectation in his heart that had become so strong that it had become a reality.
The starting signal for the competition has not yet officially sounded. In the audience, many Chinese spectators are still immersed in the excitement of winning the gold medal in the previous high jump. Now, the most exciting 100-meter sprint in track and field events is about to begin, and their enthusiasm from the previous final has burst out even more fiercely.
come on!
come on! !
In this stadium that can accommodate 90,000 people, countless spectators, whether from China, Japan or other countries, have their eyes fixed on the 100-meter track at this moment.
"Ten seconds! The next race will be the most exciting ten seconds in tonight's Olympic track and field competition!"
Shao Minyi and Li Sen were also very nervous at this time. They hoped that Fang Yu could also win a miraculous medal in tonight's game, but they were restraining themselves and not letting themselves release too much expectation.
They are worried that too much expectation before the game will put too much pressure on the players.
"No matter what the result is tonight, Fang Yu is already the brightest flying star in Asia! He has already achieved unprecedented breakthroughs." Li Sen said solemnly: "Now, what Fang Yu needs to do is to keep his composure and perform at his best... This is our greatest expectation for him!"
In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, a large number of new viewers flocked to the room because of Wang Shen’s previous competitions, gold medals and various discussion topics.
When seeing that Fang Yu's competition was about to begin, the audience in the live broadcast room also became busy and bustling, all nervously waiting for the start of this flying battle.
[Ahhhh, no matter what, come on, Xiaoyu-bro! ! 】
[Brother Yu, go ahead!] ! 】
In this tense atmosphere that seemed to share the whole world, a voice that made people tense began to be heard from the broadcast on the field - "Everyone, take your positions."
In an instant, the Tokyo Olympic Stadium, which had been very noisy, became quiet.
The stadium suddenly became quiet, and even the spectators seemed to be able to hear their own pounding heartbeats and the breathing of the audience around them.
The competition is about to begin!
On the track, eight runners lined up, with Berset, Galen, Florence and others at the center, were already squatting on their starting blocks. As the "ready" sounded, everyone immediately bent their backs and raised their hips, ready to start.
Then, there was a crisp gunshot - "bang"!
“The game has begun!!!”
Li Sen only had time to shout this sentence. At the same time as he shouted, the eight players on the track responded immediately, then started up and rushed out!
Among the eight players on the track, Galen from the United States has the strongest personal strength. So far, Galen's 100m PB is 9.71 seconds. He is still in his peak form. Many parties predict that Galen is expected to break the 9.70 mark in his career.
Berset from Jamaica is also a strong athlete. His 100m PB is 9.76 seconds, which is also a breakthrough of 9.80 seconds.
In addition to Galen and Berset, who broke the 9.80-second barrier, four of the remaining players broke the 9.90-second barrier. Only Fang Yu and another Italian player had a PB of less than 10 seconds.
Fang Yu, who holds the Asian 100m record, was only one of the last two in terms of personal performance in tonight's 100m final.
This is the men's 100-meter race at the Olympics, one of the world's top track and field venues!
In this competition that has attracted the attention of the whole world, every athlete wants to show his or her best condition and results - so people saw that the eight athletes all had almost amazing performances at the starting stage!
Among the eight people on the field, the slowest one in terms of reaction time to the starting gun was 0.147 seconds, while the fastest one, Florence, only took 0.119 seconds to react to the starting gun.
This is a reaction time that is infinitely close to the speed of a false start. Apart from Florence, Galen and Fang Yu's reaction times are close behind, at 0.122 and 0.127 seconds respectively.
"Good! A great start! Fang Yu's starting burst is very favorable!"
Shao Minyi's voice was tense and fast. He tried to analyze the situation on the field to the audience as quickly as possible.
At this moment in the competition, just as Shao Minyi said, Fang Yu's starting explosive phase currently seems to be very favorable!
The starting stage was originally the stage in the competition that Fang Yu was best at. Fang Yu's height did not have an advantage over Galen and Berset. Compared with these two, he was an obvious stride frequency player, making up for his stride disadvantage with an extremely high stride frequency.
At the same time, his starting explosive power is extremely strong, but his speed endurance is relatively poor. When he needs to use a high step frequency to make up for his stride length disadvantage, his physical energy consumption is also relatively high.
Therefore, his personal advantage stage has always been concentrated in the first half of the stage - like now!
As a global sporting event, foreign TV stations are also broadcasting the men's 100-meter final live.
At this moment, with the eyes of the whole world focused, everyone could see that in the starting and accelerating phase, among the first three runners on the track, there was actually a figure with yellow skin and black hair? !
[Oh my God…what am I seeing? A Chinese who runs as fast as a black man? ! 】
[It's incredible, am I really seeing things? Why can an Asian run so fast? ! 】
[Oh my god, his speed... His speed is actually comparable to Garen's...]
On the track, Fang Yu could fully feel that he had already exerted his speed and explosive power to the extreme at the start - perhaps, in his professional career, he would rarely have such an outstanding performance.
Perfect reaction to the gunshot, perfect burst of power, perfect three-step start...!
The moment his right foot stepped on the starting block, he could already feel that he had perfectly utilized the explosive force of the starting step throughout his starting phase.
In the first three steps of the starting action, Fang Yu's every step allowed his body to gain forward potential energy with the help of the initial explosive force. Then, in this perfect forward state, he smoothly switched from the starting pace to the accelerated running pace!
The time his feet touch the ground with each step is extremely short, but at the same time, he is able to perfectly use the force feedback from the runway when touching the ground within this limited time to make his speed even faster!
If someone were to measure the ratio of Fang Yu's left and right feet touching the ground and his body's airborne time at this time, they would come up with a very astonishing statistic.
Fang Yu's stride frequency is obviously higher than that of Galen and Berset, so theoretically, Fang Yu's total ground contact time should be much higher than that of these two opponents. But in fact, his current ground contact time is only slightly higher than that of these two players.
If the audience were asked to describe the feeling of watching Fang Yu’s game at this time, they might say - [Looking at Fang Yu, it feels like he is flying! 】
On the track, Fang Yu's current state was undoubtedly "speeding", and beside him, what was incredible was that at the current stage, he was almost on par with Galen, and his speed was even slightly faster than Berset!
"Fang Yu!!!"
"Fang Yu's speed is outstanding! Keep it up, keep it up!!!"
In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, Shao Minyi and Li Sen could no longer suppress their excitement when they saw the scene before them.
This is the final of the 100-meter sprint, the final! !
This is not the preliminaries and semi-finals stage. The players will still control their condition and retain some physical strength and competitive state for the finals.
At this moment, it can be said that every athlete on the track is running as hard as he can. No one will let up in the Olympic finals. They all hope that they can perform better than usual in the Olympic finals.
And even in such an Olympic final, Fang Yu's performance was enough to make people's pupils tremble - in the first 50 stages, he ran almost on par with the current world number one American player Galen! Jamaican flying man Bersett is even slightly inferior at this stage!
Shao Minyi and Li Sen certainly knew that Fang Yu's advantage was originally at this stage, but before this time, Fang Yu had never been able to gain such an amazing advantage in the first half of the race.
To the extent that this level of advantage gave people the illusion that Fang Yu had a chance to sprint for the gold medal.
On the track, Jamaican runner Berset and American Galen of course noticed Fang Yu's condition. Fang Yu's performance made them feel a chill. Almost at the same time, Berset and Galen completely released their strongest conditions. When they entered the mid-run stage, they were still trying their best to maintain their top speed!
Fang Yu understood that his maximum speed was only in the 50-meter section. After that, beyond the 60-meter section, his speed would drop uncontrollably.
Even though Su Bai had already made various training adjustments for him, this kind of physical talent cannot be completely reversed by training.
Since the speed will decrease after 60 meters, what Fang Yu has to do is to increase his speed to the maximum while he still has an advantage!
In the competition so far, Galen, Berset and Fang Yu have undoubtedly formed the first group on the track. This is a scene that almost no one has imagined - who could have thought of it? In this world's top arena, in this arena that was once a forbidden zone for the yellow race, there is actually a pure Chinese player who can leave behind those opponents who should have been far stronger than him!
The Chinese audience at the scene and the domestic audience watching the competition had once again gone crazy. The tingling tension and the excitement of not even daring to breathe while watching the competition in front of them were completely different experiences from watching the high jump final before.
In the commentary room of the sports channel, Shao Minyi and Li Sen were so nervous that they couldn't say anything else - [Come on! ! ! Come on Fang Yu! ! ! 】
Shao Minyi's voice almost sounded like a hoarse shout, which was totally inconsistent with the professional standards of a sports commentator. However, the director of the sports channel was not in the mood to remind Shao Minyi to pay attention to his professional standards at this time. In the director's room, the staff of the sports channel were so nervous that they dared not breathe.
On the track, there are only the last 40 meters left in the race!
Here we come!
This is the final stage where Fang Yu will gradually slow down!
In the audience, Jiang Wentao and Pei Jinan had already stood up - not only them, but no one in the audience had been able to sit in their seats and watch the game with peace of mind since the 100-meter sprint began. Everyone stared nervously at the short 100-meter track on the field, and then shouted for them wildly at the top of their lungs.
"Come on! Keep it up! Keep it up!!"
Pei Jinan was already shouting loudly at this moment, hoping that his voice could reach Fang Yu's ears and allow him to maintain his current advantage.
On the track, starting from the 60-meter stage, Galen's speed was completely opposite to Fang Yu's, getting faster and faster. Not only Galen, but also Berset, Florence and several other players on the track, their speed actually increased in the second half of the race.
Florence was originally in the leading position of the second group behind Galen, Fang Yu and Berset. As Galen accelerated and Berset still maintained the top speed, Fang Yu's speed had become slightly tired, and Florence also noticed this, and he began to look for an opportunity to overtake the Chinese player in front!
From the moment Berset caught up with Fang Yu's half-body gap, all the Chinese spectators watching the game felt a jolt in their hearts - not good! Fang Yu’s position is dangerous! ! !
But even though they knew this, they couldn't do anything about the game in front of them.
On the track, Fang Yu could clearly feel his muscles becoming heavy and sore due to lack of oxygen due to continuous anaerobic exercise. The rapid accumulation of lactic acid in his body made him feel as if his limbs were gradually becoming out of control.
Fang Yu knew clearly that the deformation of his technical movements caused by the rapid loss of physical energy would be a fatal blow to his final 30-meter stage.
so……
No matter what, you must maintain your condition!
Fang Yu controlled his breathing rate, and relied on his willpower to prevent his technical movements from being deformed. He could feel that in the first half of the race, due to his extraordinary performance, his speed was indeed faster than before, but his physical energy consumption also exceeded his expectations.
This unexpected physical energy consumption is likely to cause his speed to drop more than expected.
He couldn't, and wouldn't allow himself, to decline at such a faster-than-expected rate!
The fatigue in the body is surging like crazy. The closer it gets to the final stage, the heavier the feeling becomes, as if the body is filled with lead.
But even so, Fang Yu had no intention of giving up - he understood that today's state was hard to come by, and he could even clearly feel in his mind that as long as he could maintain this speed to the end, then what was waiting for him would most likely be a breakthrough in his own limit!
Give it a try!
No matter what the reason is, he must give it a try!
Even though his body was already so heavy, even though his limbs seemed to have been gradually uncontrollably mobilized - the last 20 meters!
Fang Yu stared at the track ahead - I can do it! !
No matter how uncomfortable his body felt at this moment, he would never give in!
[Fang Yu! ! ! Fang Yu! ! ! ! 】
[Ahhhhhhhhh!] ! ! 】
In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, there are no rational comments on the public screen - what's more, this is only less than 10 seconds, who can make rational comments at this time?
On the field, in the audience seats, in the live broadcast room of the sports channel, in front of thousands of television sets across the country, everything was in the most frantic state at this moment, and what was gathered in everyone's hearts at the same time was a common will - Fang Yu, come on!
On the track, Florence from the UK originally thought that the Chinese player in front of him had completely exhausted his energy and he had the chance to overtake at any time. However, the Chinese player seemed to be a shaky wind-blown rock. It seemed that only a breeze could make it shake, but even a violent Category 17 hurricane could not make it fall.
Florence felt as if the Chinese runner in front of her was about to fall, and she watched the Chinese runner in front of her getting closer and closer to the finish line step by step.
The last 20 meters, 10 meters, 5 meters! ! !
And then... the end! ! !
"Cross the finish line!!! Fang Yu successfully crossed the finish line!!!"
"Congratulations, congratulations Fang Yu!!!"
Almost at the same time when Fang Yu successfully crossed the finish line in third place, the Chinese audience seats at the scene erupted in amazing cheers and shouts!
In the commentary room of the sports channel, Shao Minyi and Li Sen almost jumped up from their seats!
"bronze medal!!"
"Fang Yu won the bronze medal in the men's 100m event at the Tokyo Olympics!!! Fang Yu is the first Asian to win a medal in the 100m sprint event at the Olympics!!!"
"At this moment, we can proudly say that Fang Yu is the undisputed pride of Asia!!!"
Li Sen shouted out the contents of the commentary in a hoarse voice: "At this moment, Fang Yu brings glory to China and Asia!!!"
In the live broadcast room where no one could see, Shao Minyi and Li Sen were both so excited that their faces were red. At the competition site, in the audience, everyone in the Chinese track and field team burst into earth-shaking cheers the moment they saw Fang Yu cross the finish line. A huge national flag began to wave in the area where the track and field team was located, and everyone's faces were flushed with excitement!
Even someone as calm as Su Bai, at this moment, when he looked at Fang Yu at the end of the track with an incredible look on his face, then covering his face and roaring to the sky, tears welled up in his eyes.
The 100-meter sprint is an event that Su Bai had strived for for many years. He himself does not have enough talent in the 100-meter event, but he still has the original and purest love for this event in his heart.
At this moment, he was able to be on the scene, watching his country's athletes break through the previous taboos and win medals that no one had dared to imagine - just this scene was enough to make him feel happy and gratified.
"Well done Fang Yu!" Jiang Wentao's eyes were already filled with tears. He praised Fang Yu, Pei Jinan, and Su Bai vigorously.
"Xiaobai, thanks to Xiaobai!" Pei Jinan said without hesitation and in a sonorous and powerful voice.
At the beginning, after Fang Yu broke the 10-second mark in the 100-meter race for the first time, he fell into a slump for a long time. Although the national team sent Fang Yu to study under famous foreign coaches, Fang Yu's condition adjustment was very limited.
Even in that year's National Track and Field Championships, Fang Yu almost lost to Zhao Shu.
Looking back on these past events now, Pei Jinan still feels scared.
If Su Bai had not insisted on handing Fang Yu's training plan to him despite his blame, it is very likely that Fang Yu would not be able to achieve such results in the current Olympic Games.
Jiang Wentao certainly knew about the past. He looked at Fang Yu, who was at the end of the track, covering his face with excitement, and then looked at Pei Jinan and Su Bai and said, "Thanks to Xiaobai, and also to you."
Su Bai also nodded and said, "Coach Pei, if you are not willing to accept my plan, my plan will not be able to be implemented effectively."
Su Bai knew clearly that if he had replaced his leader with one who couldn't stand others doing well, his plan would have been useless. So just as Jiang Wentao said, Pei Jinan also made an indelible contribution to Fang Yu's performance.
On the sidelines of the stadium, sports reporters from China and even from all over the world were frantically filming Fang Yu kneeling down with his hands covering his face and shouting to the sky - the athlete from China incredibly won the Olympic bronze medal in the 100-meter sprint! This crazy scene after his achievement will undoubtedly be a classic scene of the night.
At the same time, after a short wait, the referee team on site also projected the final results of the 100-meter individual competition onto the big screen on site.
Final results of the men's 100m sprint final at the Tokyo Olympics:
First place: Galen (USA), 9.7 seconds, wind speed 0.8m/s;
Second place: Berset (Jamaica), 9.83 seconds, wind speed 0.8m/s;
Third place: Fang Yu (China), 9.88 seconds, wind speed 0.8m/s (ar-Asian record)!
