Chapter 482 The third jump (three more)

The camera was aimed at Saladino in a timely manner. He is obviously the person most likely to surpass this score in the current game.

Saladino's expression was still calm, and he didn't appear to be in a panic, but there was a seriousness in his eyes.

"8.62 meters, I really didn't expect Zhang Guan to jump such a good result. This result is only 0.08 meters away from Zhang Guan's personal best of 8.70 meters. I think Saladino must feel the pressure now! There are still four attempts to jump. I don’t know if Saladino can jump with a better result. But we all know that it is difficult to jump over 8.62 meters. Maybe Zhang Guan will get his first Olympic long jump with this jump. Champion, this should also be the first Chinese Olympic long jump champion!" an ESPN commentator said.

As a foreign commentator, and there are no American players participating in this game, his position is relatively neutral. It is difficult for Saladino to surpass Zhang Guan, and it is indeed a more pertinent neutral position.

Among the cheers at the scene, Kababadi, the last player from Senegal, stepped onto the field, but the cheers were not for Kababadi, but the cheers of the audience after Zhang Guan made a jump.

The whole audience was cheering, but the cheers were not for himself, which made Kababadi a little depressed. Perhaps affected by this aspect, Kababadi failed in his second jump attempt.

So far, all the contestants have completed the second trial jump, and the third round of trial jump has also begun.

Greece's Tessa Thomas took to the arena for the third time. The player who was hailed as a capable champion before the game ended in failure in the first two attempts. It would be better if he could not get a jump in this attempt. If the results are not enough, he will bid farewell to the Olympic Games.

Compared with other players, Tessa Thomas is still superior in strength. As long as he chooses to play steadily and get a result to enter the top eight, it may be a good choice, but Tessa Thomas obviously did not do this. Tessa Thomas Thomas is playing at the limit. Even though the first two attempts failed, Tessa Thomas still stubbornly chose a very extreme jump, and the red flag raised high by the referee directly made him not have to worry about the next three attempts. trouble.

"Tessa Thomas also failed the third attempt! He failed three attempts, and Tessa Thomas had no results, so he was eliminated!" the commentator said regretfully.

Tessa Thomas was the holder of the best long jump record last year. Before the start of the Olympic Games, Tessa Thomas was known as the one who could compete with Saladino for the championship. But what he didn't expect was that he suffered the best result in the first three jumps. It is indeed a pity to fail and be eliminated from the competition early.

The Saudi player Al Shaba who appeared later failed in his third attempt because he stepped on the line. Al Shaba's final score was 7.80 meters, which is also a result in the knockout zone.

Two players have just completed the third round of trial jumps, but three people have already been confirmed to be eliminated, including Botswana's Galina Moser who has been injured and retired, Greece's Tessa Thomas and Saudi Arabia's Al Shaba. There was only one elimination spot left, which made the pressure on other players much less in an instant.

Now it's Saladino's turn to come on stage, and he will challenge Zhang Guan's 8.62 meters.

Saladino stood on the run-up area. He didn't think it was a start. Instead, he closed his eyes and began to recall the scene when he jumped 8.73 meters in the Netherlands two months ago.

The situation at that moment kept reappearing in Saladino's mind. Gradually, he felt his blood boil, and he felt as if he had returned to the moment when he jumped out of the best result two months ago.

"Yes, this is the feeling. I finally found this feeling! This is what I want." Saladino 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 Saladino is convinced that he jumped out of an unprecedented success.

"Oh my god, what did I see? It's over 8.70 meters! Saladino's trial jump is over 8.70 meters! White flag, no foul, this time the result is valid! Oh, it's 8.75 meters, Saladino refreshed His personal best result has also set a new record for the best long jump result of the year! How did he do it! I thought there was no suspense in this competition. Zhang Guan's 8.62 meters has already won the championship, but now it seems that it is There is really no suspense, but the champion has changed hands, from Zhang Guan to Saladino, I think the Chinese are too happy, they will be very disappointed now!" ESPN commentator said.

Another guest commentator immediately said: "That's right, Zhang Guan's personal best is 8.70 meters, which is still far behind Saladino's 8.75 meters. Although it is only 0.05 meters, it seems very short. But at this level of competition, the gap of 0.05 meters is completely irreversible, and this is still a result that exceeds Zhang Guan's best level. I think Zhang Guan has chosen to give up the competition unfortunately, and it will be futile to compare."

In comparison, domestic explanations seem a bit bitter.

"Saladino has jumped 8.75 meters. We congratulate him. He is currently ranked first. But this is the third attempt. Zhang Guan still has four attempts. Maybe It’s possible to overtake.”

Although the commentator said so, deep down in his heart, he also felt that Zhang Guan's hope of overtaking was very slim.

The audience fell silent again, and some even began to sigh, as if they felt that Zhang Guan had lost the game.

Saladino jumped 8.75 meters, and Zhang Guan's score was 8.62 meters. The competition has become a contest between the two of them, because it is absolutely impossible for him to jump better than them. At least it can be said that the gold medal and the silver medal The ownership has been determined, and the rest can only compete for the bronze medal.

Subsequently, Cuban player Martinez, Off Worker Meriz, South African player Mokeyena, Cuban draft pick Kameyo, and Zimbabwean player Makusha appeared one after another, but no one paid attention to these supporting players anymore. They are all waiting for Zhang Guan to play again. They expect Zhang Guan to surpass Saladino again, and at the same time surpass himself again.

Under the expectation of everyone, Zhang Guan appeared in the run-up area.

Instead of recalling in the run-up area like Saladino did, he took a step forward and ran forward with all his strength.

"Why did I start running so quickly? Anyway, there is still plenty of time, so I should adjust it a little bit!" The rush of being underprepared.

"I started running as soon as I entered the court, without even making any preparations. Zhang Guan knew that he could not jump further, so should he end the race as soon as possible? But then again, if it were me, I might choose this way too. How embarrassing and helpless it would be to stay on the field for a result that I can never achieve!" Saladino smiled.

But only Zhang Guan knows that this time he is really serious and focused, and he wants to show his strongest self.

"Zhang Guan, take off! Wow! My God!" The narrator suddenly screamed. At this time, Zhang Guan had already landed, and the traces he left in the bunker appeared clearly in front of everyone.

In the next second, the commentator roared with the roar of a beast: "Passed! Zhang Guan passed! This is 8.8 meters, this is 8.8 meters passed! Zhang Guan skipped 8.8 meters! No foul! The score is valid! Zhang Guan Crown overtook! He overtook Saladino! He is number one!"
