Football's Number One Madman

Chapter 775 I Got the Knack!

Even at night, Doha's body temperature is 40 degrees, which is a big test for players of all events.

Almost everyone's performance has dropped significantly compared to usual, and this is not a special case of the long jump event.

Especially for some projects carried out outdoors, the impact of hot and humid weather is even more obvious.

In the women's marathon held later, only 40 runners completed the race, and more than 30 people quit halfway!
Chepugetich from Kenya finally won the championship with a time of 2 hours, 32 minutes and 43 seconds, which was 15 minutes slower than her own best record this year.

"Is this hell?"

"Too tortured!"

A large number of Western players and the media couldn't help complaining.

It was even suggested:
"Why aren't artificial rains being done?"

"A rain bomb is only a few thousand dollars!"

"Doesn't Qatar even have this money?"

Li Poluo also wanted to ask this question, but he searched the Internet in advance.

[Artificial rainfall cannot create rain out of thin air, but can only accelerate the accumulation of rain clouds and increase them into raindrops...]

He looked up and saw that the sky in Qatar was completely cloudless!

According to historical records, the average number of rainy days in September in Qatar is 9 days!
In other words, every three years, Qatar will only rain one day in September!
-
Perhaps it is sincerity.

In the afternoon of the second day, a large cloud suddenly floated over Doha, covering most of the sky.

Although hardly any raindrops fell, the temperature in the whole of Doha was lowered by it... a full 5 degrees!
The maximum temperature dropped from 42 degrees to 37 degrees.

The lowest temperature dropped from 28 degrees to 23 degrees.

The 5-meter preliminaries starting at 800 p.m. are in the hottest time period.

It's just that today's temperature is much more comfortable than yesterday's.

In the 800-meter preliminaries, Li Poluo barely expended any effort, and advanced to the semi-finals as the first in the group-but it was only a day later.

After eating a little fruit and replenishing some energy, Li Polo stood on the field of the 100-meter semi-finals.

Compared with yesterday's preliminaries, today's weather is more suitable for sports. Lee Polo used a perfect start to grab the advantage, and then took the first place in the group with a huge advantage of more than 2 meters ahead of No.5!

His results are equally astounding:

9 second 66!

He improved the preliminaries by 0.2 seconds!
It is only one step away from the best record in the history of "Jamaica Lightning" Bolt - 9 seconds! -
Those who advanced to the 100-meter final with Li Polo were all well-known flying people.

Simbaine from South Africa, Blake from Jamaica, Coleman and Gatlin from the United States, Degrasse and Brown from Canada, and Hughes from the UK.

Among the 8 major seats, players from North America occupy 5, the advantage is too obvious!

They will decide the final winner after 3 hours!
-
Before the 100m final, Lee Polo was not idle.

He changed into a pair of new shoes customized for him by the sponsor and stepped on the stage of the long jump final.

The sponsor obviously put a lot of thought into it. The huge logo almost occupies the entire upper. As long as it is on the camera, no one can ignore its existence!

Lee Polo didn't care.

[I have received a huge amount of endorsement fees, so I should let their products make a good appearance! 】

"This is Lee Polo's first final at this World Championships. I wonder if there will be another nine finals?"

The commentator Yang Jian is full of confidence in Li Poluo's strength.

Wang Meng originally wanted to refute, but she thought about it carefully, but couldn't find a reason to refute.

Running is Lee Polo's strong point. Whether it's sprints, middle-distance runs, or marathons, he is impeccable.

Now even the long jump, which he just came into contact with, can enter the finals. What surprises can there be in other running events?
In the end, she could only say one thing:
"Today's temperature is much lower than yesterday's. I hope Lee Polo can show a better state and surpass himself yesterday!"
-
8:40 p.m.

12 contestants gathered at the scene of the long jump final.

According to the competition system, each competitor will perform three rounds of trial jumps in turn, and the top 8 with the best results will jump for three more rounds, and the final ranking will still be determined by the best results.

Among the 12 people, Gail was originally the most champion, but he performed abnormally in the preliminaries and only jumped out of the score of 8.08, which was very disappointing.

On the contrary, Echevarria, who jumped out of 8.40, suddenly became the biggest favorite to win the championship!
After all...he can jump farther than Li Polo!
Judging from the existing intelligence analysis, he is very likely to become the only one who can beat Lee Polo in this World Championships!
-
The first player to play was Wang Jianan of the Chinese team.

This time his preparations were obviously more adequate, a leap crossed the 8-meter white line, and landed steadily.

Just when he was about to take a look at his results, the referee waved the flag in his hand:
"Take off and step on the line, the result is invalid!"

He shook his head with some regret, and retreated into the crowd.

Perhaps it was influenced by him, after that, three players in a row fouled in the first jump, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little happier.

But after Gale played, the atmosphere of the entire arena became tense again.

He jumped, and the referee's white flag stood upright:
"8.46!"

Everyone is in high spirits!
He surpassed Echevallia's performance in the preliminaries!

Feeling the pressure, Echevarria suffocated, but he failed to show a better state. The first jump score was only 8.25, which was significantly behind Gale.

Henderson, who played later, came from behind with a score of 8.28, temporarily ranking second.

Li Boluo, who played in the finale, absorbed their experience and jumped out at least 10 centimeters away from the jumping line!

"Swoosh~~~crack!"

He flew over the dotted line of 8 meters, with a personal best discipline of 8.36, the best record of the event of 8.46, and sat on a green line!

That green line represents... the best record in history of 8.95 meters!
"Wuhu!!"

Yang Jian almost jumped up from his seat!
He collected himself, glanced at the data that popped up on the screen, and his voice was instantly passionate:
"8.66 meters! 8.66!"

"Li Polo's performance in the preliminaries has improved by 30 centimeters!"

"He surpassed Gale and became the biggest favorite to win the championship!"

Wang Meng also almost bit his tongue:
"This result...is enough to win the championship in any World Championships in the past 20 years!"

——Her information is not wrong. For example, in the last two World Championships, the final championship scores were only 8.41 and 8.48.

But Li Poluo didn't seem to be satisfied, he stood up from the spot, and looked down at the position of his landing point.

He even stretched his feet and gestured, and shook his head slightly:

"It's a long way!"
-
From the second jump, Li Boluo focused all his attention on the running movements of other players, hoping to learn the strengths of everyone in the shortest time, so as to benefit himself.

Even Wang Jianan and the Japanese players who had no hope of advancing, he observed carefully.

The study time is too short and there are too many things to learn, so when he reappears, Lee Polo's mind is still a little messed up.

So much so that his second jump not only did not improve, but declined!

8.56!

A full drop of 10 centimeters!

Li Poluo's precipitous decline did not cause others to chase after each other, but instead made them too excited to make mistakes one after another in the next game...

For example, Gail fouled both his second and third jumps, so he could only advance to No.8.46 with a score of 2.

Echevarria also made a mistake on the line in the second jump. On the third jump, he finally found the feeling, jumped out of the score of 8.34, and advanced as No.3.

When it comes to the real decisive stage, the event has undergone minor adjustments:
No.8 Japanese player Hashioka Yuki took the lead, while the best Lee Polo stayed at the end - this was to keep the game suspenseful.

Hashioka Yuki jumped hard, but didn't even cross 8 meters, and only got 7.97.

After that, Wang Jianan was encouraged and skipped 8.10 for the first time in this tournament!

The other contestants came on stage one by one, while Lee Polo seized the time to continue studying.

Henderson stepped on the line for a foul in the fifth appearance, and Echevarria, who appeared in the sixth appearance, was too cautious and only jumped out of the score of 8.18.

At the seventh Gail, he finally found his best form, drawing a huge black arc in the air!

8.69!

He surpassed Lee Polo by three centimeters!

Seeing this result, Gail was so excited that he almost climaxed!

He jumped up from the bunker and did a backflip on the spot!
Lee Polo, who appeared after him, took a deep breath with his usual expression:
"I seem to have gotten the hang of it!"

He observed for four full rounds, and the characteristics of the other 11 top long jump masters were finally integrated in him!

Warm up, adjust breathing, observe distance, run up, speed up, and take off!

Soar into the air, stretch your limbs, reach the apex, and... Descend!
"Pong!"

His feet landed in the bunker, and with the huge inertial impact, he sat down!

The referee raised the white flag in his hand:

"The result is valid!"

"8.78!"

Gail, who had just stepped off the field, was three points black all over his face!

[Negative emotions from Gail, +878! 】
