Chapter 74 A False Alarm
Buzz buzz buzz.
Buzz buzz buzz.
The scene was filled with a rustling sound of trivialities, tense and worried, hot and boiling.
Although the home crowd really, really wanted the Sooners to win, no one wanted it to be this way, and no one wanted the players to get injured.
Some people covered their mouths, some stood up, and some showed their pity. All the bustling eyes were cast towards the figure lying on the ground.
The atmosphere was slightly solemn.
There was even more commotion in the Bruins' player area.
McDonald was the first one to stand up and rush out. If Grant hadn't been quick to grab McDonald in time, he would have probably rushed into the court by now.
"Wait for the paramedics! Mike, wait for the paramedics!"
Grant managed to maintain a bit of rationality, but the chaotic scene was hard to control, and other players were also expressing their anger and frustration.
Sale and Di Giulio were cursing and expressing their negative emotions, and Thompson grabbed his hair in frustration, muttering, "That idiot! That idiot, he shouldn't have saved the ball. There was no need, there was absolutely no need!"
Jilong sat quietly in the player's seat, but his eyes were fixed on Gao Wen's figure, and his heart suddenly contracted.
The air is burning.
"He stood up!"
Jilong stood up suddenly and immediately realized his gaffe. He looked around hastily. Fortunately, all his teammates rushed forward to pay attention to Gao Wen's situation. No one noticed his urgency, which made Jilong feel a little relieved. After thinking about it, he decided not to sit down. He stood behind the crowd of teammates and watched closely.
Under the burning gazes of the audience, Gawain stood up.
Without any help, he stood up by his own strength, then Gawain lightly jumped twice on the spot, and then switched to high leg raises, and then squatted and stood up to stretch, trying to relax the tense muscles as much as possible. His light and free movements did not seem to be affected by any injuries.
fine!
He's fine! There were whistles at the scene, and then there was sparse applause.
We congratulate Gawain for not getting injured, admire his extreme save, admire his professionalism, and welcome the continuation of this exciting final.
Clap, clap , clap! Clap, clap! The applause gradually gathered and the whole place was noisy.
Medical staff had also arrived at the scene and were closely inquiring about Gawain's condition. Gawain then noticed that Harris had also come to his side of the court and was standing not too far away, observing Gawain motionlessly, with a hint of worry and concern in his eyes.
Gao Wen nodded towards Harris and said, "I'm fine."
Harris was still a little worried, "Are you sure?"
Harris hopes to defeat Gawain, but he hopes to defeat Gawain fairly, using his own strength and performance on the field, rather than in such an ugly way - if Gawain is injured, then even if he wins, Harris will not be happy.
Gawain smiled and nodded again to confirm.
Harris gave Gawain a thumbs up, then took two steps back and returned to his own half.
"Gao, do you feel dizzy now?"
The medical staff's inquiring voice called Gao Wen back. Although his knee was not injured, he still needed to be alert to the potential possibility of concussion.
After a simple test, it was confirmed that Gawain was fine, with only some scratches on his skin. Two coin-sized pieces of skin were scraped off his thigh and arm.
No wonder I felt a stinging pain just now, it turned out to be a scratch.
It was a false alarm!
The medical staff quickly disinfected the wound, put on two round band-aids, and left.
Gawain stood up completely, and jumped high and high several times on the spot, like a kangaroo, trying to find his body balance by fighting against gravity. This was not only to confirm that there were no other potential injuries, but also to regain his sanity and state after the chaos.
call……
Gao Wen let out a long breath, and his flustered mood calmed down again.
He knew that injuries were an integral part of being a professional player, and if he was afraid of injuries, he shouldn't have started; but after being reborn, since he chose to stand on the court again, he had already prepared himself mentally.
Now it seems that his body and nerves are also ready!
Wait, something seems to be missing.
Gawain was still a little dazed, and then he saw the caddy holding his racket waiting not far away. Ah! That's it! Gawain walked over, took the racket from the caddy, and smiled, "Thank you!"
Turning around and returning to the baseline, Gao Wen found that the referee had not yet announced the restart of the game. He looked over and found that the referee had been paying attention to Gao Wen's situation. When their eyes met, the referee asked again, "Are you okay?"
Gao Wen made an "OK" gesture to the referee.
The referee then nodded slightly and announced the score into the microphone again, "30:40".
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
This also meant that the ball that Gawain had just saved with all his might was still out of bounds, and Harris scored, so Harris saved a break point.
Now, Gao Wen still has a break point, but this fall just now interrupted the state of both players. It is unknown whether it will affect the progress of the game.
“Roar, roar, roar!”
“Pah, pah, pah!”
The whistles, cheers and applause at the scene were intertwined. You can see that the students of the University of Oklahoma all stood up, applauding and cheering to cheer for Gao Wen, and also to cheer for Harris. They were all looking forward to a fair and exciting duel.
"Come on, Gao!"
“Good job!”
"Harris, calm down!"
The fans cheered loudly for the two players on the court, and after a brief period of chaos, the scene began to boil like a volcanic eruption.
Sofar witnessed it all in the studio, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled back into his chest.
"...Gawain is fine and not injured. This is undoubtedly the best news for this game."
"Now, all the fans of the Sooners team have stood up to cheer for the two players. In addition to the victory or defeat of the game, there are more important things. Although this game is crucial, the fans can feel Gao Wen's competitive spirit and applaud his opponent with practical actions."
"It's undoubtedly one of the most fascinating things about the game of tennis."
As a neutral commentator, Sofar hoped more than anyone else that Gawain was safe and sound, because he was still waiting for this exciting duel to continue.
but--
“The game is about to restart, but it will be a test for both young players.”
"The accidental fall delayed the game for nearly four minutes, which was a severe test of concentration. Young players often find it difficult to stay focused, and they may make mistakes in the next one or even several points. But for Harris, he has no room for mistakes now."
"The game has started again, let's look forward to the performance of the two players."
