Chapter 101
That morning, neither Su Yu nor Jiang Yuan followed the national team's bus to watch the game. Instead, they stayed in the hotel, used the equipment in the hotel gym to do some simple exercises to adjust their condition, and then had a good rest in the afternoon before taking a bus to the Latina Stadium again in the evening.
During the four-day World Youth Championship, all the people who love sports events in Tampere, Finland gathered in this venue, enthusiastically cheering for every athlete who came to participate in the competition and watching every exciting event that took place in this stadium.
Of course, if you were to ask the audience in Tampere, Finland, which player impressed them the most during the four-day competition, many would definitely give the same name - Su.
When Su Yu and others arrived at the scene, they happened to meet local reporters from Tampere, Finland who were interviewing the scene. When the audience saw Su Yu and his group getting off the bus in the player entrance area, there was even a brief chaos in the outer field.
Although Su Yu didn't understand Finnish very well, he could still hear someone in the distance vaguely shouting "Su Yu, come on!" in his direction. Although their pronunciation was unclear, the enthusiasm in it was extremely real.
After hearing the chaotic but enthusiastic cheers from the audience, Su Yu, who had already gotten off the car, looked back in the direction of the audience outside and waved to them.
After Su Yu waved in response, the spectators who were isolated outside the players' entrance area immediately burst into even more enthusiastic cheers. Seeing that the audience was too enthusiastic, the security personnel of the Latina Stadium began to wave in the direction of the Chinese team's players, signaling Su Yu and his party to quickly enter the stadium to avoid further chaos.
After Su Yu and others quickly entered the venue from the entrance area, the restless noises from the audience outside gradually subsided.
It was not until Su Yu and Jiang Yuan went to the Chinese team's backcourt lounge that Zheng Sheng smiled and whispered to Pei Dingshan from behind: "Coach Pei, your Su Yu is so popular both at home and abroad!"
As he said this, he made a thumbs-up gesture to Pei Dingshan.
Pei Dingshan listened to Zheng Sheng's praise, nodded slightly, glanced in the direction of the Chinese team's locker room, and then, rarely, did not follow Zheng Sheng towards the audience seats, but walked towards the Chinese team's backcourt locker room.
Zheng Sheng looked at the direction Pei Dingshan left and couldn't help laughing: "This is incredible. I noticed that you haven't been following Su Yu these days. Are you finally going to keep an eye on him today?"
Pei Dingshan shook his head: "Su Yu knows about tonight's game. He doesn't need a coach who says too much at this time, and I don't plan to say anything more at this time."
Zheng Sheng didn't understand: "What are you doing?"
Pei Dingshan simply waved his hand at Zheng Sheng as he walked, "Coach Zheng, please go ahead. I'll take a look here and go to the front later."
When Zheng Sheng heard Pei Dingshan's words, he was stunned for a moment, but soon he smiled and agreed, then walked towards the audience seats alone.
Although he had no idea what Pei Dingshan was planning to do here, as they were all coaches, he could more or less guess Pei Dingshan's mentality - Su Yu was the first player Pei Dingshan personally selected after he returned from the exchange program at Lyles, and Su Yu had such a unique talent. Even though Pei Dingshan did not seem to be obvious on the surface, he definitely invested the most effort in Su Yu's training and competitions.
Such a player who has been brought up with great effort is about to face probably the most difficult game in his professional career. Even if it is really as Pei Dingshan said - Su Yu knows it in his mind, but from the perspective of the coach's mentality, Pei Dingshan should still be worried.
At times like this, even if the players do not need the company of a coach and want to prepare for the competition quietly on their own, as a coach, they actually want to be with the players.
When Zheng Shenglin reached the turning, he looked back and saw that Pei Dingshan did not knock on the door to enter the Chinese team's backcourt lounge, but was standing against the wall at the door of the Chinese team's backcourt lounge.
With one last glance in the direction of Pei Dingshan, Zheng Sheng smiled, shook his head, and walked out alone.
Today's men's 200m World Youth Championship final is the most difficult game in Su Yu's career. One of the reasons is, needless to say, the extremely high intensity of six shots in four days.
Although Su Yu had participated in both the 100m and 200m events in domestic competitions before, the domestic Grand Prix competition system is that players can directly advance to the finals based on the overall ranking in the preliminary stage, which eliminates the semi-final stage. In fact, the 100m and 200m combined have two fewer shots than the World Youth Championships.
Moreover, the pressure brought to Su Yu by opponents in the domestic Grand Prix is definitely not as great as that brought to him by these young players in the World Youth Championship.
Don’t be fooled by the young age of these young players, as you can tell from their results.
Take tonight's men's 200m final as an example. Among the seven athletes competing with Su Yu, the weakest is Batur Alsreka from Poland. And the so-called 'weakest', in fact, Batur Alsreka's PB is also 20.82, and he may break the 20.80 mark at any time.
As for the rest of the players, the four players from the British and American teams alone have the potential to occupy the top four places, not to mention that apart from these top four players, South Africa's Ismael Schaeffers and German young player Julian Tenet are not easy opponents to deal with.
Although Su Yu's current PB of 20.70 is very strong, in fact, if we only talk about PB, the data of 20.70 cannot even rank among the top four among the finalists.
Even though every previous game seemed to be a tough battle, for Su Yu, tonight's men's 200m final was definitely the most difficult game, no doubt about it.
Zheng Sheng felt a headache whenever he thought of the opponents Su Yu would face tonight.
Of course, while he was having a headache, he was also secretly excited in his heart - no matter what, these were the Chinese team's players competing in the World Youth Championship.
The first men's 200m final is about to take place!
***
At the same time, track and field fans on the Internet are waiting anxiously for the men's 200m final tonight.
As for what ranking Su Yu will get in tonight's final?
Now even no track and field fans dare to discuss this result, for they are afraid that they will come up with some unrealistic ideas and bring unnecessary public pressure to Su Yu.
Not only that, there are many track and field fans who dare not join the discussion simply because they are afraid of being a bad mouth or saying the opposite. So even the track and field fans who are usually the most talkative now keep their mouths shut like a clam and dare not open their mouths at all.
Not only these track and field enthusiasts, but even the two veteran commentators, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming, when they entered the live broadcast room of Jigu Video together tonight, they couldn't help but feel nervous about the two finals that would begin tonight, especially the one that Su Yu would face.
But no matter how many people feel nervous and uneasy about this game, time will not stop.
With the arrival of all the contestants, the first event of the fourth evening match of the World Youth Championships officially kicked off at 17:50 local time in Tampere, Finland.
After the game officially started, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming also tried hard to adjust their state, shifting their minds from being nervous about Jiang Yuan and Su Yu to commenting on the game.
17:50, men's javelin final.
18:00, men's triple jump qualifying round.
18:05, women's 4*100m relay preliminaries.
18:30, men's 4*100m relay preliminaries.
19:00, men's 100m hurdles semi-finals.
19:28, men's 400m hurdles semi-finals...
As the events progressed, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming's commentary work was carried out in an orderly manner. However, compared with the outstanding performance of the Chinese team in the past two days, the performance of the Chinese team in tonight's game could not be considered ideal.
First, in the men's javelin final, the young Chinese player who advanced to the final with the second overall ranking in the preliminaries only ranked ninth overall in the first three attempts, thus ending his journey to the javelin final and failing to qualify for the next three throws.
Secondly, in the women's and men's 4*100m preliminaries, the girls on the women's team were too nervous and made mistakes in the baton handover during the game, and ultimately failed to achieve any results due to fouls.
In the men's 4*100m relay, the young Chinese players were no match for their opponents and failed to make it to the 4*100m final.
Consecutive failures in several events have gradually filled the hearts of many track and field fans watching the game tonight with a sense of uneasiness. Fortunately, in the men's triple jump qualifying round, the two young players of the Chinese team managed to maintain China's advantage in the triple jump event and both made it to the finals.
Although it is not yet known how these two young players will perform in tomorrow's final, their performance in the triple jump finally made the spectators feel a little relieved.
When the results of the men's triple jump qualifying round came out, the time on site had already reached 19:43 - the men's high jump final was about to officially begin!
This is also one of the two most watched events tonight!
When Jiang Yuan stepped onto the field with the other 12 opponents, Zhong Wen and others in the audience, who had previously felt regretful about the result of the javelin final, instantly cheered up again, waved their banners and the Chinese team's flag vigorously in the direction of Jiang Yuan, and shouted Jiang Yuan's name loudly.
After Jiang Yuan appeared on the scene, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming were also cheered up.
"Dear audience, the men's high jump final is about to begin. In this final, our young athlete Jiang Yuan will compete with the other 12 opponents for the final victory of this game!"
In many past competitions, Jiang Yuan has brought great surprises to domestic track and field fans with his performance and strength. At the same time, his past performance has also laid a strong foundation of confidence for domestic track and field fans.
It should be said that in tonight's final, Jiang Yuan is fully capable of winning medals and even gold. However, after Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming introduced the other 12 young players who also advanced to the finals to the audience one by one, the audience watching the game in the live broadcast room still felt the difficulty of this game.
[Fuck, this Vladislav Denzhisov is the foreign player who was competing against Jiang Yuan throughout the preliminaries yesterday, right? His PB is 2.29 meters! Isn't this even stronger than Jiang Yuan? 】
[It's not just him, there's Costadin and Pedro, these two are also very strong, right? 2.28 meters and 2.26 meters, they are actually comparable to Jiang Yuan, right? 】
[I am in tears. What gave me this illusion before? I always thought Jiang Yuan would definitely win the championship... Su Yu's 200m final is already nerve-wracking enough, and now it seems that Jiang Yuan's high jump final is not so sure either...]
[It’s not that serious, right? I think Jiang Yuan’s high jump will at least win a medal...】
[…Don’t be too confident. Liao Qi’s previous experience is still fresh in our minds! 】
Liao Qi was talking about the Chinese player in the men's javelin final that had just ended earlier. In the qualifying round, he advanced to the final with a total ranking of second with a score of 73.83 meters, but in the first three throws in the final, his throwing scores failed to exceed 65 meters, and he finally had to retire with a regretful ranking of ninth in the final.
It was Liao Qi's performance in this game that once again showed the track and field fans and all the spectators the unpredictable nature of sports competitions.
No one can always guarantee that they can perform perfectly - in the men's 200m semi-finals, the Japanese star Yusuke Sasaki with a PB of 20.54 seconds failed to advance to the finals. Instead, the relatively unknown Polish athlete Batur successfully got the chance to advance.
In short, the unpredictable changes on the field have made many track and field fans tense up and dare not underestimate the upcoming game.
At the competition site, Jiang Yuan, who had already entered the arena, naturally noticed the attention from different opponents.
When he raised his eyes to look in the direction of the source of these gazes, he saw that the Ukrainian player Vladislav, who had challenged him after the game the day before, was also looking at him unceremoniously and giving him a very bright smile.
Not only Vladislav, but also Kostadin Gorovic from Serbia and Pedro Amores from Cuba are looking at his position.
In the live commentary room of Jigu Video, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming were also introducing these athletes. When introducing Pedro Amores from Cuba, Tian Ruhui additionally mentioned the current WU18B record for men's high jump.
"The current record holder for the men's high jump WU18B is none other than the Cuban Lester Delaplante, a former Cuban high jumper who is also the head coach of the Cuban athlete Pedro Amores who is participating in this competition."
"Pedro Amores has publicly stated in interviews many times that he hopes to have the opportunity to get close to the glorious record once created by his coach - of course, Pedro Amores is already 18 years old this year, but before this World Youth Championship, he still expressed his hope to challenge his limits in this World Youth Championship."
In the live broadcast room of Jigu Video, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming introduced these players one by one, and the cameras on the scene also scanned the players on the field one by one. Only through the direction of the players' gazes in these cameras could it be found that most of these players were looking at Jiang Yuan from the Chinese team.
After realizing this, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming's eyes became more serious.
As everyone regards Jiang Yuan as a strong rival, this game for Jiang Yuan will definitely be more difficult than any other before.
Perhaps to confirm the speculations of the audience and Tian Ruhui, Zhou Jiming and others, when the game officially started, the audience in the live broadcast room almost felt as if they had seen some miracle.
——In this men's high jump final, the referee set the starting height at 2.07 meters. Among the 13 competitors in total, 6 chose not to jump at this height.
This was an almost impossible scenario in the men's high jump finals of the past World Youth Championships!
After all, this is already the final stage, and the height of 2.07 meters is not too easy for these U20 players. Most players will choose to do a trial jump to avoid the situation where they fail to even get basic results.
But in the last round of trial jumps, six athletes including Vladislav and Jiang Yuan chose not to jump at this height. And judging from the order of take-off, it is obvious that these six athletes who chose not to jump are basically the top six athletes in the final ranking of the qualifying round.
The appearance of this scene not only shocked the audience in front of the live broadcast room, but also the audience on the scene and even the first 7 contestants who had completed the trial jump.
"Oh shit, what's going on? A new tactic?"
"Don't you know? The origin of all this is the player from the Chinese team, Jiang Yuan... Aha, you know him too, right?"
"Of course, the champion in the men's long jump, I know him - but what does it have to do with him that these guys chose not to jump?"
"Have you forgotten what this Chinese athlete is best at? Skipping, applying for skipping continuously - whether in the long jump final or yesterday's high jump qualifying competition, he used the skipping tactic a lot."
"But isn't that what he does to preserve his energy?"
"Aha, yes, so he is the only one allowed to conserve his energy?"
In the preparation area of the men's high jump final, familiar athletes were quietly discussing the reasons why a series of athletes had applied for exemption from the jump.
Speculations like this quickly spread among the players.
In fact, there is no need to spread it. After all, they are all high jumpers who can advance to the finals of the World Youth Championships. In fact, they only need to think about it for a while, and most of them will get the same answer.
Yes - Jiang Yuan can conserve his energy, but will the other contestants consume too much of it?
Therefore, at the starting height of 2.07 meters, all the athletes who were confident in themselves applied for exemption from the jump, just to preserve their physical strength and condition, to ensure that they could "fight" to the last moment as much as possible, and strive to win better results.
The referee team on site obviously also noticed the thoughts of the players present, but of course the referees would not take the initiative to interfere with the players' own choices.
Therefore, after confirming that the next six players all chose to skip the jump at a height of 2.07 meters, the referee waved his hand and asked the on-site crossbar referee to raise the height of the crossbar to 2.12 meters.
In the first round of 2.07-meter trial jumps, except for the six contestants who applied for exemption from the jump, the remaining seven contestants all successfully cleared the bar in one go. However, in the 2.12-meter round of trial jumps, two contestants among the first seven contestants soon failed in the trial jump. At the same time, one of the original six contestants who applied for exemption from the jump also started the trial jump in this round.
In addition to this contestant, the remaining five contestants including Vladislav, Jiang Yuan and others once again chose to continue to apply for exemption from the jump.
After this round of height, when there were still 5 athletes who had not officially appeared on the stage to start trial jumps, there was already an athlete who had failed three consecutive trial jumps - so far, in the men's high jump final, the horizontal bar was 2.12 meters high, 5 athletes applied for exemption from the jump, and 1 athlete was eliminated.
Soon after this player was eliminated, the horizontal bar was raised to 2.16 meters at the referee's signal.
This time the height of the horizontal bar was raised by 4 centimeters. Obviously, the appearance of the eliminated athlete at the height of 2.12 meters made the referee on the scene judge that the height of the horizontal bar could not continue to be raised at a speed of 5 centimeters at a time.
Just as the referee judged, the height of 2.16 meters was close to the limit for some of the athletes on the field. The athlete who had failed at the height of 2.12 meters failed again. In addition to him, there were three more athletes who failed to clear the bar in this round of trials.
However, the men's high jump final at this time presented a completely polarized situation - among them, one of the eight players who appeared in the front position had been eliminated, and among the other seven players, four failed to clear the bar at a height of 2.16 meters, and one of them was even the player who applied for exemption from the jump in the first round of trial jumps.
In the next two rounds of trial jumps, this athlete successfully cleared the bar, but the remaining three athletes who failed all failed again. In the end, only two of the three athletes successfully cleared the bar, and another athlete ended his high jump final at a height of 2.16 meters.
At the same time, the five players headed by Vladislav and Jiang Yuan still maintained the option of not jumping. However, it can be seen that, except for Vladislav and Jiang Yuan, players like Pedro Amores of Cuba and Kostadin Gorovich of Serbia showed a hint of hesitation on their faces.
Apart from them, the remaining South African athlete Chedrick Giovanna, who still chose not to jump at the 2.16-meter height, could no longer sit still. After finishing the trial jump at the 2.16-meter height, Chedrick was the first to stand up, take off his coat and start warming up. It was obvious that he would not choose not to jump at the next height.
After all, choosing to skip a jump is a tactical choice to preserve physical energy. If in the process the height you choose to skip a jump exceeds your ability, and in the end the continuous skipping of jumps fails to bring better results but results in no effective results, then the gain will outweigh the loss.
Therefore, even though he knew that starting the trial jump would mean "giving up", Chedrick still stood up rationally and started warming up.
After Chedrick, Pedro and Kostadin were still hesitating. Only Jiang Yuan and Vladislav remained unmoved in the preparation area.
In the live broadcast room of Jigu Video, although the focus of the game should be on the field, the director of Jigu Video still very decisively cut the live broadcast screen to the preparation area many times.
After seeing the images from the preparation area, the audience in the live broadcast room became anxious and uneasy, looking even more nervous than Jiang Yuan and Vladislav who were in the game.
[I cried. I knew Jiang Yuan’s PB was 2.28 meters, and I also knew that he rarely failed at heights below 2.2 meters. But he managed to jump to 2.16 meters. I felt like I was about to fall asleep…]
[Don’t worry, my friends. We are not the only ones who can’t sit still. Look, the one in South Africa has already risen, right? In addition, Pedro from Cuba and the one from Serbia are obviously getting restless. So it’s not that our mentality is too weak, it’s mainly because Vladislav and Jiang Yuan are too calm! ! 】
[So at what height are they going to start the test jump? Can I avoid jumping in the high jump forever? 】
[…Yes, you can keep jumping to the height you want to try, as long as you have the ability. But generally speaking, in such a big competition, the players will not make such an outrageous choice. After all, even if you are able to jump over a higher bar, the previous trial jump at a lower height is not meaningless. The previous trial jump can help the players adapt to the venue and grasp the height more accurately. 】
[Right. So even if a contestant is skilled and bold, he or she will not go too far in such a crucial event. Otherwise, he or she may end up getting struck by lightning instead of showing off...]
While the live broadcast room and the audience were discussing the men's high jump final, the referee on site had already signaled the crossbar referee to raise the height of the crossbar from 2.16 meters to 2.19 meters.
When this height appeared, Pedro and Costadin finally could not sit still anymore. When the referee adjusted the height of the bar, they stood up from their seats, took off their coats and entered the warm-up stage.
At this point, the only two athletes who remained motionless on the field were Jiang Yuan and Vladislav. Many people also understood that if there were no accidents, the final winner of the men's high jump final would most likely be decided between these two athletes. However, the competition between masters was really difficult in the preparatory stage. Neither Vladislav nor Jiang Yuan had any intention of warming up for the competition.
Zhou Yuang and Ye Minghao, who had finished all the competitions, sat together in the Chinese players' area. Zhou Yuang looked at Jiang Yuan sitting calmly on the field and couldn't help but said to Ye Minghao beside him: "Yuanzi, this guy, when it comes to bking, I really admire him..."
As he spoke, Zhou Yuang shook his head and sighed with a look of regret: "Hey, Ye Zi, how can I pretend to be a bigger boss in the future? Otherwise, won't I always be a useless little brother in our 303bking group?"
Ye Minghao was paying attention to the direction of the competition field while listening to Zhou Yuang's mumbling. After hearing his question, he smiled and said, "Pretending to be a bit bigger? It's not impossible."
Zhou Yuang's eyes lit up immediately: "For example?"
Ye Minghao smiled and said, "For example, if you beat Su Xiaoyu in the competition?"
Zhou Yuang: “…”
Ye Minghao looked at Zhou Yuang's sudden stiffness and couldn't help laughing: "What? No confidence?"
Zhou Yuang curled his lips and said stubbornly, "Who has no confidence? Didn't I just beat Su Xiaoyu? Wait for me! I am also the one with PB 20.88, isn't Su Xiaoyu's current PB 20.70? I am not incapable!"
Ye Minghao continued to smile: "Don't forget that Xiaoyu ran 20.70 seconds against the wind. In the 200m final tonight, it's hard to say what his final result will be, right?"
Zhou Yuang, who was originally stubborn, was a little depressed now - tsk, yes, their little ancestor was a god who could run 20.70 seconds against the wind, and his actual strength should be under 20.70 seconds...
He was talking about how Su Xiaoyu only ran 20.83 seconds in the preliminaries yesterday morning. He was so excited when he ran 20.88 seconds, and thought he was not far away from Su Xiaoyu's result. However, the gap was closed in less than half a day, and it was closed again last night.
But even though he was muttering to himself, Zhou Yuang would not think about the possibility that Su Yu would not be able to break through in the final tonight.
His way of thinking is that Su Xiaoyu is stronger than him, so the stronger Su Xiaoyu is, the less unfair it seems that he loses.
Regardless of whether it is self-consolation or not, Zhou Yuang's logic is very smooth.
While he and Ye Minghao were watching the competition and chatting in the Chinese athletes' area, the first round of trial jumps at a height of 2.19 meters was already halfway through.
Before the height of 2.19 meters, two of the total 13 high jump finalists had been eliminated at heights of 2.12 meters and 2.16 meters.
When the horizontal bar rose to a height of 2.19 meters, the situation on the field became even more tragic. Among the 9 athletes who chose to try jumping at this height, 5 of them failed in this round of attempts.
There were only four successful athletes, including Pedro from Cuba, Kostadin from Serbia and Chedrick from South Africa, who chose to start the trial jumps in this round.
That is to say, if these three players do not choose to start trial jumps in this round and continue to compete according to the lineup of the previous round, there will be only one player who can clear the bar in one go.
It can be said that after the horizontal bar rose to a height of 2.19 meters, the competition on the field has completely entered the "expert stage". The players who still maintain the ability to clear the bar in one go will be strong contenders for medals in this men's high jump final.
After successfully passing the pole in one go, Pedro, Serbia and others turned their attention to the position of Vladislav and Jiang Yuan.
They wanted to see how long these two men could sit there motionless like a mountain.
It's already 2.19 meters, and the next height will most likely be 2.21 meters - when it reaches a height of over 2.20 meters, do these two people still need to apply for exemption from jumping?
If so, isn't that a bit too conceited? !
After an almost long wait, the trial jump at a height of 2.19 meters was finally over. At this height of the horizontal bar, three contestants were eliminated at once.
At this point, the number of remaining players on the field officially dropped to single digits, with only 8 players left.
When the referee on site indicated that the height of the horizontal bar should be raised to 2.21 meters, the first reaction of everyone, including the audience and the contestants, was to look at Vladislav and Jiang Yuan in the preparation area - these two still had no intention of getting up!
Cuban athlete Pedro Amores, who had already completed the test jump, seemed a little anxious.
Just as Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming said, he told the media before the competition that he hoped to challenge his limits in this competition and achieve better results.
It was precisely because of this that he had chosen not to jump many times in previous trial jumps in order to preserve his physical strength and condition so that he could achieve better results in subsequent trial jumps at higher heights.
But now, with his first trial jump over, Vladislav and Jiang Yuan, who were capable of competing for medals, remained motionless.
This made Pedro extremely anxious. He wanted to continue to apply for exemption from the jump, but he was also worried that he would not be able to pass the bar smoothly after it reached a height of more than 2.21 meters.
If he continued to apply for exemption from the jump but failed at the subsequent height of 2.23 meters, it would be a very bad situation.
Compared with him, the Serbian athlete Kostadin, who has already chosen to start the trial jump, is much calmer. Since he has chosen to start the trial jump, Kostadin decided to go all out to achieve the best results and performance.
Perhaps it was because of this mentality that Costadin still maintained a 100% one-time clear rate in the 2.21-meter height trial jump, but Pedro failed in his first trial jump at this height.
Pedro, who failed to clear the bar, looked very bad, because at this height, even the South African player Chedrick, who performed worse than him, successfully cleared the bar in one go. In other words, among the players in the 'no jump group' who started trying to jump at the same time, he was the first one to fail to clear the bar.
This realization caused Pedro's mentality to fluctuate significantly, so that he failed again in his second attempt. It was not until the third attempt that he barely adjusted his state and successfully crossed the bar.
In the live broadcast room of Jigu Video, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming also briefly analyzed Pedro's condition from the perspective of mentality after seeing Pedro's performance, but in addition to mental reasons, there is another possibility.
"The continuous skipping of jumps at the previous heights made Pedro feel unfamiliar with the arena in front of him, and his condition has not yet adjusted to the best. In this case, coupled with Pedro's mental problems, it must have a great impact on his personal condition and performance."
The audience in the live broadcast room also agreed with the analysis of Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming, and felt that Pedro's mentality was indeed not very good.
But compared with Pedro, Jiang Yuan and Vladislav seemed to be a little too good.
[I feel like my heart is about to jump out of my throat. How are those two people still sitting there? ! 】
In the live broadcast room of Jigu Video, this comment complaining about Jiang Yuan and Vladislav was liked by countless people. However, no matter how many people liked it, it seemed unable to change the calm state of the two people on the field, which made the track and field fans and bystanders in the live broadcast room feel both relieved and nervous.
The good news is that Jiang Yuan is in good condition, but the worry is that the height of the crossbar on the field has reached this stage. Will Jiang Yuan and Vladislav really not get into trouble? !
Finally, the 2.21-meter height trial jump on the field was over. At this time, even the commentator on the scene couldn't help but interrupt in the gaps between explaining other events to express his "admiration" for Jiang Yuan and Vladislav.
——"These two players are really mentally stable!"
Isn’t that right?
At this moment, at the height of 2.21 meters, three more contestants have been eliminated, which means that only the contestants in the previous exempted jump group are left on the field.
Until now, Vladislav and Jiang Yuan have been constantly applying for exemption from the jump. Compared with other players who have already had a valid clearing score of 2.21 meters, their actual scores are still zero.
But these two people don't seem to be in a hurry at all - doesn't this mean they are 'mentally very stable'?
Finally, after the referee on the scene signaled to the crossbar referee to raise the crossbar to a height of 2.23 meters, the two players who had been sitting calmly in the preparation area from the beginning stood up almost at the same time, took off their coats and began to warm up.
After seeing their movements, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming in the Jigu video live broadcast room finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Jiang Yuan and Vladislav have started warming up - the current height of the horizontal bar is 2.23 meters. After a long wait, the two players finally decided to start their game."
"Is it a wise choice or a manifestation of overconfidence that they played the game for such a long time before?"
"I believe their next performance will tell us the final answer!"
