God of Sprint

Chapter 168 Semi-finals Zhao Yun's steps began to drift again Hey! Hey! Hey!

"Entering the bend, Zhao Yun was not overtaken."

“I’m still in the lead, but the gap between me and Jacobs and Richardson is only two meters.”

"The last eighty meters, come on Zhao Yun! Hold on! Speed ​​up! Zhao Yun, charge! Charge! Charge! Charge!"

"Wow! Wait, what did I see? De Grasse actually caught up from the fifth place."

"The last sixty meters, come on, Zhao Yun! Come on!"

"De Grasse caught up with Richardson and Jacobs."

"The last thirty meters, Zhao Yun, speed up! Speed ​​up!"

"De Grasse has surpassed Richardson and Jacobs and is just two body lengths behind Zhao Yun!"

"In the last ten meters, Zhao Yun sprints! De Grasse catches up with Zhao Yun."

"The last two meters, the two of them walked side by side."

"Two people are on the line at the same time!"

"Who is the first place between him and De Grasse? It's hard to tell with the naked eye right now. We are waiting for technical verification."

"This group of matches is really exciting and thrilling!"

"Zhao Yun started off very fast and very steadily, and was in the absolute lead in the first 300 meters. But De Grasse came from behind and overtook Jacobs and Richardson, and crossed the finish line at the same time as Zhao Yun."

"I have to say De Grasse is really strong. He has put a lot of pressure on Zhao Yun in the 200m semi-finals and 400m preliminaries."

Yang Jian was afraid that fans might overreact, so he comforted them in advance by saying, "But you don't have to worry about who's first or second, they will both make it to the semi-finals."

"The final results are out, Zhao Yun! It's Zhao Yun! Zhao Yun won first place with a time of 43 seconds, while De Grasse got 98 seconds."

"This result is very close, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's within a hair's breadth!"

After Zhao Yun rushed out of the baseline, his stomach began to churn, but he tried hard not to vomit! He slowly paced on the sidelines to adapt.

In fact, it was already difficult for Zhao Yun in the last fifty meters. He wanted to speed up, but he could no longer speed up. In that state, Zhao Yun was able to stabilize his technical movements without deformation, which was already Zhao Yun's limit.

Zhao Dehan took out a bottle of functional water and handed it to Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun first rinsed his mouth and spit out the strange smell and sour water in his mouth. Then he gulped down the water.

Liu Xiangdong quickly gave Zhao Yun physical therapy. When Liu Xiangdong was giving Zhao Yun physical therapy, he found that Zhao Yun's legs were shaking slightly. Liu Xiangdong knew that this was a physiological reaction caused by excessive fatigue, so he quickly helped Zhao Yun pat and relax his muscles.

As for Bromell, he had already fallen on the track with his arms and legs spread out. The medical team of the event quickly carried him onto a medical bed.

Before he left, he opened his eyes towards Zhao Yun. It seemed as if he was saying, "Good brother! I will come back again!"

Zhao Yun did not join in the fun. At this time, professional matters should be left to professionals. Besides, he is not much better!

Zhao Yun nodded at him, indicating that I understand you!

Soon after, the competitions of other groups also started one after another. One group after another, the 400-meter preliminaries were finally over.

What was unexpected was that the American teenager Lyles actually made it to the semi-finals, which made people full of imagination about the future of this player.

The most important thing was that after running, he did a three-step layup to celebrate entering the semi-finals, which left a deep impression on people.

Flaunting and passionate, this is exactly the same as Zhao Yun when he first debuted.

During an interview, Lyles actually said, "Zhao Yun is my idol. I learned everything from him."

What is even more incredible is that four players from Zhao Yun's group made it to the semi-finals, which is a first in the Diamond League.

After Zhao Yun returned to the hotel, he took an ice bath first.

Zhao Dehan asked beside Zhao Yun, "How is it? Are you feeling okay?"

Zhao Yun smiled and said to Zhao Dehan, "Don't worry! I will do my best!"

"Actually, what we are most afraid of right now is hearing you say "go all out". Really, there's no need! We are already the champions of two stages. And we have proven ourselves in Doha and Shanghai. Our 400-meter strength is world-class. Coach Wang and Coach Liu are both afraid that you will get injured in this game. Do you understand?"

"Haha! I understand! But I won't give up! Unless I can't run anymore. I can give up on the court. But I will never give up off the court."

"Do you still remember Liu Xiang?"

"of course I remember!"

"Liu Xiang also gave up when he couldn't run away. Now you have a great national sentiment in the hearts of the Chinese people. They have high expectations of you. I am afraid that you will repeat Liu Xiang's mistakes. That will have a great impact on your psychology!"

"Haha! I'm not Liu Xiang! I don't care about the gossip on the Internet, and I don't read it."

"Okay! Now that you've made up your mind, let's run. Remember, we'll always be behind you."

At this time, Liu Xiangdong and Wang Zijie also came in. They stretched out their hands and held them tightly.

At five o'clock in the afternoon US time, the much-anticipated 400-meter semi-finals began.

The first players to appear are those in Group A.

Lane 5, Makawara, Lane 6, Van Niekerk, Lane 7, LaShawn Merritt

The eighth is Santos, the fourth is Gardner, the third is Saifuhaba, the second is Jacobs, and the ninth is Keli.

At the referee's gunshot, the game began.

As the kings of the 400 meters, the showdown between Bahamian star Gardner, Botswana athlete Makawara, and LaShawn Merritt was like a collision of Mars and the Earth. The three took turns leading in the first 200 meters.

When it came to the last Crescent Blade, three unknown people among them, Van Niekerk, Santos, and Saifuhaba, actually caught up at this time.

In the end, Makawala won the first place, Van Niekerk won the second place, LaShawn Merritt won the third place, Santos won the fourth place, and Saiful Haba won the fifth place.

The highly anticipated showdown between the two kings was ruined by three people who were far inferior to them. It was really sad!

After Group B came on stage to warm up,

Then the Group B competition began.
