Almighty Coach

The United States team is celebrating the gold medal. A game official came from a distance and came to Li Dai's front.

"Coach Lee, we just received a complaint from Jamaica coach Fraser. He thinks that your players from the United States have interfered with the handover of the Jamaican players, resulting in the Jamaican team making mistakes in the second and third handovers. Said the official of the tournament.

"Intentional interference? This is nonsense, and we almost made mistakes ourselves." Li Dai snorted coldly, his expression gloomy.

"Coach Li, according to the rules, since there are complaints, we should accept and investigate, so please come with me, we also need to ask you a few questions, please cooperate with our work." Said a poker face.

"Okay, I must cooperate fully, let's go." Li Dai said, glaring in the direction of the Jamaican team.

Li Dai did not see Frazer in the Jamaican team's camp. He wanted to come to Fraser to complain to the US team.

"This Fraser is still a long-time famous coach. I can't afford to lose!" Li Dai sneered.

...

Li Dai followed the tournament officer to an office, and Jamaica coach Frazier was here. In addition, there are today's chief referee on duty, the two referees of the head referee, and three other match officers.

"Everyone is here." The head of the tournament, headed up, said: "Then, let's elaborate on your views with both sides. Coach Fraser, you are the complaining party, so please speak first."

Frazer nodded and said, "I think that during the game, the US team intentionally interfered with our competitors, causing our players to make mistakes when handing over the second and third shots. The American team This is obviously a foul, which is extremely unfair to our Jamaican team, so this game should be replayed! "

The tournament official turned to Li Dai again: "Coach Li, do you have any complaints about Coach Fraser's complaint?"

"Coach Fraser's complaint is completely false. Our athletes did not intentionally interfere with the Jamaican team." Li Dai continued without mercy: "The situation at that time, you must have seen it through slow-motion playback. My athletes made mistakes and almost dropped the stick. Fortunately, they responded quickly enough to regain control of the baton. However, our players also lost a certain amount of time because of this mistake. I do n’t think there will be a coach who will arrange one. Tactics to lose time? "

Li Dai said, turned to look at Fraser, and then asked: "Coach Fraser, if it is yours, will arrange such a tactic. I would rather lose some time and let my players deliberately go. Interfere with one of your opponents? "

Frazer snorted without answering, and Li Dai continued: "Not to mention, if our players didn't catch the baton, it would definitely be a batting, and we would lose the game. Again. Come, if the Jamaican team's batting success, then our US team lost time in vain? If this is intentional, then from the perspective of gains, obviously it is not worth the money. "

The competition officer nodded again, and then whispered a few words with the referee team, then said: "We listened to the statements of both parties, and after discussion, the competition determined that in the final of the women's 4x100m relay, The American players did not intentionally interfere with the transfer of the second and third shots of Jamaica. This should be an accident. Coach Fraser, if you do not agree with our ruling, you can continue to file an arbitration with the International Olympic Committee after the game. "

Frazer also knew that he was unreasonable. As Li Dai said, no coach would be stupid enough to deliberately arrange such a detrimental tactic.

But Frazer was not willing to fail, he immediately said: "Even if the US team did not intentionally interfere with the handover of our player, but the remedial action of the American player after the mistake occurred, it is indeed a handover to our player. The stick caused interference. This is an unfair behavior. Our Jamaican team was obviously treated unfairly. This violates the principle of fair competition in the Olympic Games, so we should be given a chance to remedy it, even if we do n’t replay. We should let our Jamaican team run alone. If our results exceed the US team ’s championship, we should return the gold medal to our Jamaican team. "

"Return?" Li Dai smiled coldly, and then said: "Coach Fraser, as you mean, this gold medal belongs to your Jamaican team? I don't think there are any regulations in the Olympic Games regulations, women Does the 4x100m relay belong to the Jamaican team? "

Fraser was unimpressed by Li Dai ’s irony, which was related to the attribution of an Olympic gold medal, so Frazier was also open. As long as he had the opportunity to get the gold medal back, he would not want this old face .

The game officials and referees whispered again, they were obviously discussing Fraser's point of view.

Li Dai felt that he had to do something. In case the game officer is mentally disabled, it really gives the Jamaica team a chance to replay the game. With the American team's score of 41 seconds away, it can't really hold this gold medal.

So Li Dai said, "You, the officials, and the referee, if I remember correctly, the IAAF stipulates the batting of the relay. The athlete must run the baton with the baton. Picked up by the athlete who dropped the stick, he can leave his lane to pick up the stick. If this method is adopted and it does not hinder other athletes, it is not a foul. Am I right? "

"This is indeed the case." The head referee nodded.

"According to the slow-motion replay at the time, although the baton of our player disengaged, she regained control of the movement of the baton and did not leave her own lane, so is the behavior of our player not a foul?" Li Dai then asked.

"Yes, all the technical moves of the American players are completed within their own lanes." The referee nodded in confirmation.

"The rules clearly state that leaving one's own lane but not hindering other athletes is not a foul. In other words, if it is an action done within one's lane, it cannot be considered a disturbing act." Li Dai said.

"Why do you say that acting within your own points can't be regarded as disturbing your opponent?" Frazer retorted immediately.

"If you make a move in your own lane, it is considered to be an interference behavior. In the previous women's 100-meter game, the Jamaican team players looked at our competitors during the game. Our athletes think that look is too terrifying and interferes. When it comes to the performance of our athletes, can I also complain to the tournament? "Li Dai asked rhetorically.

Frazer sneered again, without answering. In fact, he wanted to refute, but he really did not stand on the side of reason.

Just listen to Li Dai and continue to say: "I do n’t deny that the Jamaican player made a mistake after our athlete nearly fell the stick, and the Jamaican team ’s mistake may also have a causal relationship with the movement of our player, but this does not affect Jamaica. The responsibility for the team ’s mistakes is passed on to us. In relay races, mistakes often occur, and accidents are also part of the game. We ca n’t just restart the game because of an accident? ”

"What ’s more, if the Jamaican players can play more stable in the game, then they will not make mistakes in handover. So in the final analysis, the Jamaican team made mistakes. So the Jamaican team should bear its own responsibility, and Other teams should not be allowed to pay for their mistakes. So I urge the tournament to dismiss Coach Fraser ’s unreasonable request. "

...

The event did not accept Fraser's request in the end, and the event officer also knew that Frazer's request was totally unreasonable.

After this small storm, the game should continue, and the next is today's final event, the men's 4 by 100 meters final.

In this project, the strength of the US team is unquestionable. The US team has two new Olympic champions, Alexander and Ford, which are obviously the biggest favorites to win the championship.

What's more, the American women's team has won the relay race, which also provided motivation for the male players participating in the relay race. The best players in the women's team only won the Olympic bronze medal, but they won the relay championship. There are two gold medal winners in the men's team, so why not win the gold medal in the 4x100m relay?

In contrast, the defending champion Jamaican team of the two Olympic Games has not had the kind of sharpness before. In personal events, whether it is the men ’s 100 meters or the men ’s 200 meters, the Jamaica team lost to the United States, which makes Jamaica The road to defending the crown was declining.

More importantly, the women ’s team had lost the match in the relay before, and they did n’t even get a medal, which brought a huge blow to the morale of the Jamaican team.

In team sports, the morale of athletes is an important factor in winning. For example, on the court, playing windward and headwind are two completely different experiences.

Moreover, the failure of the Jamaican women ’s team has also brought additional pressure on the Jamaican men ’s team. The Jamaican men ’s players will worry that they will encounter the same situation as the women ’s team. When they hand over the stick, they will No similar mistakes will occur.

People always worry that bad things will happen again, especially on the field. For example, an athlete has been injured because of a certain technical action. When he recovers from the injury, he will do the same technical action. Worried that he will be injured again.

The Jamaican men's team is now in this state. The mistakes of the women's team are like a seed of haze, planted deep in their hearts, and begin to germinate and gradually grow. They always seemed to hesitate when they took over the baton, as if they were very worried about the mistake of the baton also coming to the men's team.

In this state, the Jamaican team is the opponent of the imposing American team.

When Sean Ford handed the baton to Alexander, the American team's lead was enough to secure the game.

"20 gold! We got the 20th gold medal!" Downey seemed extremely excited.

This is not the first time Downey has participated in the Olympics with the United States team. It is the second time that he is just the track and field team leader, but he has never experienced such a big victory. Now, the unprecedented victory of the American track and field team will also make Downey's position in the American Athletic Association go further, and his political career is bright.

More importantly, he witnessed this scene with his own eyes and witnessed the birth of the most powerful American track and field team in history. This is really worth bragging about for a lifetime.

Equally pleased are the American reporters. At this time the on-site reporters of the US team have thought of the title of tomorrow ’s news:

"Ten years to wait, the US sprint returns to its peak! 》

...

On the bus back to the hotel, all the contestants of the US team were still excited, but Li Dai was holding a piece of material and was caught in thought.

He has the game against tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be the penultimate day of the Olympic Games and the penultimate day of track and field.

As the final day of the Olympic Games, Maracana Stadium will hold the closing ceremony and need to rehearse the closing ceremony in advance, so on the last day of the Olympic Games, Maracana Stadium will not arrange games, so tomorrow is also a horse The last match day in Lacana Stadium. After tomorrow's game, Maracana Stadium will prepare for the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games.

There are still eight events left in the track and field, of which the men ’s marathon is held on the last day, and it is held outdoors, and does not need to occupy the space of Maracana Stadium. The other seven projects are all focused on tomorrow.

These seven events are all finals, namely women's high jump, men's javelin, men's 1500 meters, women's 800 meters, men's 5000 meters, women's 4 times 400 meters and men's 4 times 400 meters. According to the schedule, all seven events are held in the evening, which means that there will be no track and field competitions for the whole day tomorrow.

For the US team, the good news is that all seven events have athletes in the finals, and the players' strength is not bad.

The two 4-by-400-meter relay races are a must-win for the US team. The US team's advantage in the 400-meter sport is already very obvious. This advantage is added to the 4-by-400-meter event and becomes more obvious. It can be said that two gold medals of 4 by 400 meters have been booked by the US team.

The women ’s high jump is a strength of Europeans, and among the finalists, in addition to the two American players, the others are also Europeans. However, European players are more divided, Spain, Germany, Italy, Britain, Croatia, Bulgaria, Sweden, Poland, Ukraine, Russia, one player each advanced to the final. This also shows that the competition in this project is very fierce. No country dares to say that it has an absolute advantage in the women's high jump.

The men ’s javelin and women ’s long jump are similar, and a large number of European athletes have entered the finals. The US team has not always been strong in the javelin event, but its strength has always been ranked in the upper middle. This time, one of the US team entered the final. Generally speaking, in the javelin project, everyone's strength gap is not very large, everyone may lose their feet, it is difficult to say who will win the championship.

The two items of women's high jump and men's javelin, the state libra can play a role again, each athlete has multiple opportunities to try, as long as there is a state burst, you can earn.

Moreover, in these two events, the difference between the previous level of the athletes is not very large, it is relatively easy to use the state scale to fish in muddy water. A good state can decide where the final champion belongs. If it is a project where the strength of the players is relatively large, such as an S + level ruler, then even if the United States has a few states in a row, it will be difficult for UU to read www.uukanshu.com to get a gold medal.

"Two relay races, plus women's high jump and men's javelin, there are a total of four gold medals, one less than the 25 gold medals I said." Li Dai frowned and looked at the remaining three items.

Men's 5,000 meters, has always been the world's long-distance runners in Africa, although the three players of the US team have also been promoted, but it is very difficult to win gold.

However, there is also good news in the men's 5000m project. The Kenyan team made a mistake in the first round of the game and no one advanced to the finals. This is a big upset. So the US team only needs to face the top strong team in Ethiopia.

The women's 800m and men's 1500m two middle distance running events are also very fierce. In addition to Russia, Kenya, Uganda, Algeria, and South Africa all have world-class middle distance runners who have advanced to the finals. Players, their strength is basically at the same level, it is difficult to say who will win the game in the end.

"I have observed athletes in this amount of events. Not only are there no S-level players, not even an A + -level player. This is very rare in high-level games like the Olympics. The crowd is divided, it seems that tomorrow On both projects, there will be a scuffle! "
