Dominate the badminton world

Chapter 377 The End of the Lin-Li Era

On August 8, when there was no men's singles match or badminton match, Wang Yu and Cheng Yanchen watched other games at the scene of other Olympic events.

At 19 o'clock on the 7th, the men's singles semi-finals began.

Wang Yu and Lin Dan walked out of the athlete's aisle amidst the cheers of the audience, and walked to the field.

Being able to reach the semi-finals is enough to show that Lin Dan attaches great importance to this Olympic Games, and he has done enough work in the early stage.

After picking sides and warming up, Wang Yu and Lin Dan got ready for the match under the prompt of the referee.

"Ladies and gentlemen, on my right, Lin Dan, China, on my left, Wang Yu, China, Lin Dan serves, the game starts, 0-0."

Lin Dan sent the badminton lightly to Wang Yu's body, and Wang Yu snatched a push, pushing the badminton obliquely to Lin Dan's right backcourt, the backhand position.

Lin Dan immediately ran to the right backcourt and hit a backhand lob.

Wang Yu took a step forward, and then pushed the shuttlecock to Lin Dan's right backcourt.

Lin Dan frowned slightly, and suddenly sped up and jumped to the right back court. The racket in his hand whizzed out immediately, and suddenly whipped the badminton.

boom!
The badminton was thrown out of the oblique line violently by Lin Dan, and went straight to the court on the right side of Wang Yu.

Seeing the badminton being caught by Lin Dan, Wang Yu immediately took a big step to the right and stretched out his racket to catch the badminton.

It was blocked, but the badminton was blocked by Wang Yu on the net and dropped off the net.

"1-0."

……

boom!
Lin Dan used his superb front-net skills to force Wang Yu to pick the ball, and the quality of the return was poor. Lin Dan seized the opportunity and nailed the badminton to the floor on Wang Yu's left court with one beat.

"Change serve, 11 to 9, intermission."

In the first game, Lin Dan played very steadily and cautiously. Although the offense was extremely fierce, he was also trying to save his energy and strive to score every point with the minimum loss.

But after all, the opponent was Wang Yu, a monster with perverted physical fitness. Lin Dan tried his best, and the consumption was still not small.

... Lin Dan trotted to the right back court, hit a backhand slash, and hit the badminton trickily to Wang Yu's right front corner.

Immediately, Wang Yu took a big step towards the right front court, just in time to block the badminton and put it towards Lin Dan's left front court.

But Lin Dan returned to the midfield very quickly, as if he knew that Wang Yu was going to release the ball, he appeared in the left front court when the badminton passed the net.

Lin Dan stretched out his left hand and flattened the racket, giving the impression that he wanted to push Wang Yu's right backcourt, but at the moment of hitting the ball, he hooked the ball with his elbow, and hooked the badminton against the racket to Wang Yu's left frontcourt .

Wang Yu could only admire Lin Dan's maneuver. No matter how fast he was, he couldn't keep up. He could only watch the badminton fall to his right front corner.

"At the end of the first game, Lin Dan won, 21 to 17."

clap clap~
Seeing that Lin Dan had won the first game, the audience burst into applause immediately, and the voices of cheering for Lin Dan were endless.

"Come on, Lin Dan, we must win!"

"Lin Dan will win..."

If it was other competitions, there might be more voices supporting Wang Yu, but here is the Olympic Games, and basically most people support Lin Dan.

Just because Lin Dan is the men's singles badminton champion who won the 08 Olympics and the 12 Olympics, if he wins the championship again at the Rio Olympics, then Lin Dan will become the badminton player who has won three consecutive Olympic Games.

Such a record can be regarded as a mythical existence in all sports in the world.

Those who can achieve this Olympic Triple Crown can be counted on one hand.

On the 15th, in the [-]-meter final, Bolt reached such a mythical record and achieved three consecutive [-]-meter sprint championships.

The audience at the scene also very much hope that China can produce such an athlete, and Lin Dan is the most promising at the moment.

Wang Yu felt that it would not matter if Lin Dan could beat himself and then compete for the Olympic champion in the final, but he would still try his best.

After Wang Yu and Lin Dan exchanged courts, they rested and adjusted for a while, and then walked onto the court under the referee's reminder.

"The second game starts, 0 to 0."

After Lin Dan served the ball, he fought with Wang Yu.

……

In the second game, Lin Dan mainly focused on recovering his physical fitness, and did not entangle Wang Yu too much.

In the end, Lin Dan only scored 7 points in the second game and lost to Wang Yu 7-21.

After the second round of the game, Lin Dan's physical fitness also recovered a lot. No one said anything about Lin Dan's actions. After all, he is getting older, so it is understandable.

Two minutes later, the referee said: "The decisive game begins, 0-0."

Lin Dan took a deep breath and was ready to receive the serve.

……

boom!
Lin Dan vigorously lifted the badminton into the air, and Wang Yu, who was in the air, hit the badminton with a super strong blow, making the badminton hit the floor on Lin Dan's right side like a missile.

"11 to 8, intermission, swap courts."

In the deciding game, Lin Dan and Wang Yu fought very fiercely, and Lin Dan's attack was also extremely fierce, which made Wang Yu uncomfortable and lost a lot of points.

But Wang Yu's attack was more fierce, and his speed was brought to the extreme. In the first few minutes, Lin Dan was still in a stalemate with Wang Yu.

As time went by, Lin Dan gradually couldn't keep up with Wang Yu's speed, and the score began to be pulled apart.

In the second half, after switching courts, Lin Dan's physical fitness dropped significantly, making it impossible for many balls to return to their positions, which gave Wang Yu many chances to score.

boom!
Wang Yu grabbed Lin Dan's backhand high ball, came to the left backcourt, and nailed the badminton obliquely to the floor on Lin Dan's left.

"competition is over."

Lin Dan propped up his knees, his body was sweating profusely, and when he was seen by the audience, he sighed and his face was full of regret.

"Sure enough, it is too difficult to achieve three consecutive championships in badminton, even for Lin Dan."

"Hey, Lin Dan has already made history if he can become the double champion. The triple crown is unrealistic."

"If his opponent is not Wang Yu, it is possible."

Lin Dan laughed at himself, feeling that he was still thinking too much, then walked to the net to shake hands with Wang Yu.

“王羽胜，第一局17比21，第二局21比7，决胜局21比13。”

clap clap~
Wang Yu defeated Lin Dan, and the audience gave them applause of blessings. He reached the final. Even if Wang Yu abstained, he would still be the Olympic runner-up.

The final between Chen Long and Li Zongwei in the first half was also divided. Chen Long lived up to expectations and defeated Li Zongwei 2-1 with a big score, successfully entering the final.

This match also marked the end of the Lin Li era, which was completely replaced by the Dragon King era.

The result was as expected by the fans. In the final, Chen Long and Wang Yu fought.

As for who will be the champion of this Olympic Games, Wang Yu or Chen Long, the answer will be revealed in tomorrow's final.

　The 30th of this month is the teaching qualification exam, and I am taking the time to read the book and update it as much as possible.
