Kings of the Game: Getting Back to the Game, Beginning with the NBA

Chapter 196 The Birth of China's First Gold
At the end of the first round, Liu Ming temporarily ranked first.

With a score of 8 meters, most of the contestants were blocked from the gold medal in one jump.

The few remaining ones who are capable of making an impact on this result are also beginning to be under great pressure.

For example, the seed player Echevarria.

Now this guy's mind is full of four words——勥烎菿奣.

After the results of the first round of the 12 contestants flashed on the broadcast screen, the second round began immediately.

The first to appear is still Wang Jianan, a Chinese player.

Obviously, Wang Jianan was not affected by Liu Ming's 8 meters 62.

When the strength gap between the two sides is too large, there is naturally no need to benchmark.

On the contrary, it can calm the mind.

This time he jumped well, 8 meters 29 refreshed his best result of the season.

And it just happened to stabilize Shotaro Shiroyama.

Immediately after the second debut was the Swedish player Montreux. Since he only jumped 7 meters 88 the first time, he chose to fight for the second try.

But unfortunately, his luck was as bad as the hot and humid weather in Doha.

The jump failed as a foul on the line.

Immediately afterwards, Jamaica's Gail made the second attempt.

Perhaps influenced by Liu Ming's 8 meters 62, he obviously became a little anxious in this jump.

The result was also invalidated by stepping on the line.

"Shiroyama Shotaro jumped too fast!"

"It seems that Wang Jianan's 8 meters put a lot of pressure on him."

"The forward charge was too hard, and the excessive force of the jump made his ankle unbearable."

"This injury is very fatal, and he may have to give up the game next time!"

"Uh, our Huaxia delegation in the stands is also applauding him..."

Then it was Echevarria's turn.

"After the failure of the first trial jump, I think Echevarria should have found some sense of the game. I don't know if he can surpass Liu Ming's 8 meters."

"He's starting to run!"

Teacher Yang stopped talking suddenly, and looked at Echevarria who had completed speeding up in the broadcast screen.

I saw Echevarria jumping high and gliding in the air like a big flying bird, and then fell heavily into the sand pool.

The whole set of movements was done perfectly, the only pity is that the sound of boarding was not heard at the scene...

"It seems to exceed 8 meters! The referee raised the white flag, oh, this jump did not hit the board!"

"8 meters 44!"

"This is the long jump superstar Echevarria. Even if he can't jump on the board, he still has a score of over 40. His talent is simply amazing..."

But the audience at the scene did not cheer, but only scattered applause, and many people's faces showed a dignified look, obviously worried about Echevarria.

Although Echevarria's strength is strong, the loss of not taking off on the board is too great, and it is difficult to pose a threat to the results of Liu Ming and Gail.

Echevarria waved his fist excitedly. He looked around and saw the faces in the auditorium who were anxious for himself, which made Echevarria full of energy.

"It is enough to get into the medal competition steadily, and then I can give it a go."

There was firmness in Echevarria's eyes, and his expression became more confident.

The mentality of the players who will appear next is different, except that Manyonga and Henderson are strong in hard power, and they can still perform well even if they do not perform well.

Although the two Neon players seemed to be working hard, they failed to achieve a result of 8 meters or more.

The 11 athletes took turns to complete the dance, and only Liu Ming was left on the stage.

He glanced at his physical strength of only 50 and his competitive state below the passing line.

Liu Ming decisively chose to abandon the jump.

At the beginning of the third round, everyone is working hard for the remaining 4 promotion places.

Because if the result of this jump cannot enter the top six in the group, it means that the opportunity for the last three jumps will be lost and the team will be out early.

The fierce competition lasted for quite a long time, but the results achieved by the athletes were somewhat unsatisfactory.

Gail and Echevarria, who had secured the qualifying in advance, both stepped on the line and fouled, and the result was invalid.

Manyonga and Henderson were determined to be stable, and the score of about 8 meters occupied two seats first.

The remaining people wanted to fight for the last seat, but they failed due to various reasons such as mentality explosion or lack of strength.

In the end, it was Wang Jianan who jumped 8 meters and made it to the medal round with the sixth place.

"The three jumps in the men's long jump are over now, and Liu Ming's 8 meters still occupies the first place! Everyone still has the last three chances to try jumps. I don't know if Echevarria or Gail will seize the opportunity to jump to a better result."

"However, we all know that exceeding 8 meters is difficult. Maybe Liu Ming will win his first world long jump championship with this jump. This will be the first gold medal won by the Chinese delegation in this World Championships. Let us look forward to the performance of all athletes in the future!"

Next, it was Wang Jianan's turn to appear.

After entering the medal round, his state of mind is more peaceful.

Shiroyama Shotaro's mentality exploded and he retired from injury, and Hashioka Yuki was also eliminated by him.

The flag established before the game has been perfectly achieved.

Therefore, defeating himself and refreshing his personal PB became his last stubbornness!

But there is one thing to say.

The leg injury limited his ability to display his strength. Not to mention Liu Ming's 8 meters, even Echevarria's 62 meters was very difficult for him.

Gale was on the run-up for the fourth time.

He didn't start running immediately, but waved his arms to the stands.

The Jamaican audience and coaches in the stands soon began to applaud along with his rhythm.

Gradually, Gail felt his blood boil.

"Yes, that's the feeling, I'm a superstar!"

Gail opened his eyes suddenly, and then he started to run.

He took off, he vacated, he landed, and without even looking back at his accomplishment, he raised his arms and started cheering.

Because Gail is convinced that he has just jumped out of an unprecedented success.

"Oh my god, what did I see? 8 meters 7?!"

"White flag, no foul, Gail's score is valid this time!"

"8 meters 69, Gail from Jamaica refreshed his personal best result, and also refreshed the best result of the year in the long jump event!"

“PB从8米32直飙8米69，三个月足足进步了37公分！他是怎么做到的！”

"We can see that the Jamaican audience and coaching staff in the stands are full of disbelief!" Teacher Yang said.

The tone of Kan’s guidance was heavy: “Liu Ming’s 8 meters is still far behind Gale’s 62 meters. Although it is only 8 meters, when it comes to competitions above 69, there is a big gap for every 60 meters.”

Teacher Yang sighed, "Gail jumped 8 meters. Let us congratulate him. He has replaced Liu Ming in the first place. However, Liu Ming still has three chances to try jumping. Everything is still unknown."

Having said that, deep down in his heart, he also felt that Liu Ming's hope of overtaking was very slim.

After all, Liu Ming will participate in the [-]-meter final next!
And that's the big game.

Perhaps it was time for Liu Ming to choose to give up the game.

Because it is useless to compare.

It's better to save some energy for the next [-]-meter final.
