Chapter 116: Before the final

   In the afternoon of July 13th.

   On the last afternoon of this year's World Junior Championships, in all the competitions, the last of ten events or the finals will all end this afternoon.

14:25, the men's high jump final; 14:30, the last item of the women's heptathlon, women's 800m; 15:05, men's 200m final; 15:25, women's 800m final; 15:35, men's discus Finals; 15:45 men's 2000m obstacle course final; 16 men's triple jump final; 16:10 men's 1500m final; and finally at 16:30 and 16:50 the men's and women's mixed relay races .

In the team relay event of the first World Junior Championships, there were two relay events at that time. One was a men’s and women’s 4×100m relay and a mixed mixed relay event. Few races, in the team relay event, only the mixed relay race is set up as a team relay event.

   Short-distance mixed relay is generally a relay race with four members participating, but the distance run by each member of the relay team is slightly different. The race length is generally 800 meters and 1,600 meters.

   This year's World Junior Race uses a distance of 1600 meters, two 200 meters, one 400 meters and one 800 meters. The rules are a bit similar to 4×400 meters. After the split runs, you can grab lanes.

   The Chinese team has a small number of participants. In the sprint event, only Ye Qin is the male player, and the female is only a 400-meter hurdle. Naturally, it is impossible to participate in the final mixed relay race.

   The Chinese team only had two events in the last afternoon, Yeqin's men's 200m final, and Yeqin's roommate Wu Jiang in Sherbrooke to participate in the men's discus final.

   At 15 o'clock in the afternoon, at the starting line of the men's 200-meter men's 200-meter run at the University of Sherbrooke Stadium, eight contestants who participated in the men's 200-meter final of the World Junior Championships appeared on the track.

   The information of the eight finalists was also displayed on the big screen at the scene:

  The first one, Nelson Andre, Brazil;

   Second Road, Ye Qin, China;

   The third way, Jamal Ken, England;

   Fourth Road, Youssé Bot, Jamaica;

   Fifth Road, Mike Grant, United States;

   The sixth way, Danny Bailey, Netherlands Antilles;

   Seventh Road, Andrew Watkinson, England;

   Eighth Road, Grim Reiter, Australia;

Among the eight finalists, Yechin’s 200m semi-final team won three places. In addition to him and British player Jamal Ken, the Australian player Griem Reiter also scored 21.61 seconds. The results slipped into the finals.

   Standing on the runway, Ye Qin raised his head and looked into the distance. The afternoon sky was still light rain. Fortunately, the temperature was finally higher than that in the morning. Although it was somewhat cool, it was not too uncomfortable.

Especially after just finishing the warm-up run, I would stand in front of the starting line. Ye Qin just felt that the rain was falling on the skin and it was a bit icy. Looking up at the distance of the stadium, a large lawn like a hillside extended to the lush mountain forest in the distance. .

   Canada is a vast land with sparsely populated people, and the newly constructed Sherbrooke University Stadium is located in a slightly remote location. If it is in China, it is difficult to see the lush mountain forests around such an outdoor open stadium not far away.

There are a lot of white temporary tents set up on the lawn of the slope, and to the side are stands crowded with people. The stands are located in the last 200 meters of straights and corners. It seems that because of the last afternoon, There are more people in the stands than in the previous days, and it feels a bit crowded.

   Whistles and shouts came from inside from time to time.

   Ye Qin touched the rain on his face and looked at the staff on the side of the court. They were basically covered in plastic ponchos. The referee team and other staff in the runway were mostly sitting under the sunshades.

   "This is the last game!"

   Ye Qin exhaled slightly, feeling a slightly tight body, shrugged on the spot, shook his arm gently, and relaxed as much as possible.

   At this moment, a sturdy white man in a poncho ran over from the field with a camera on his side and shot the Australian player in the first lane. The speed is very fast. After all, only the local TV stations in Quebec or Sherbrooke broadcast the World Junior Championships.

   Ye Qin almost didn't even think about it when the camera turned to him, suddenly turned his back to the camera lens, pointed at his number plate and waved his right hand.

   The stout white photographer also seemed to be a little astonished by Ye Qin's actions. He paused for a few seconds, gave some more shots, and quickly turned to another third player.

   There were more than 3,000 spectators crowded together in the stands. At this time, after Ye Qin made that action, there was a burst of laughter.

   This Asian boy in red clothes is so interesting!

   Before such a tense final, I suddenly made such a move.

   "This young athlete, he likes to be funny!"

In the area where the Chinese delegation is located in the corner of the stand, Ye Lidong and Zhou Bin couldn't help but look at each other, smiled and shook their heads. www.wuxiaspot.com~ It's a little embarrassing, I can only watch my nose and nose, showing a calm expression.

   Instead, the young athletes like Liu Feng, Jiang Minli, who were sitting together, stood up one by one when Ye Qin waved their hands, and burst out loud shouts again.

   But being so troubled by Ye Chin, the Chinese team only became a little dignified because Ye Chin stepped onto the field, and it was somewhat diminished.

   Today is the last afternoon, everyone can go back after the match. From the training camp to the Sherbrooke game, there are more than ten days away from home, and everyone's mood at this time is somewhat relaxed.

   On the field, when the camera lens moved to the fourth lane, the audience in the stands burst into laughter again.

Youssé Bot, a black teenager from Jamaica, suddenly raised his hands to make a staring expression of horror when the camera was pointed at him, and then twisted around, also attracted by all kinds of weird movements. Has attracted the attention of many people.

His character itself is jumping and happy, and off the court is a live treasure. It’s just that at this age, young players are somewhat restrained in large-scale competitions. When he turned his head and a large number of players, he happened to see the camera lens aimed at Ye Qin. The wave of the hand made there suddenly couldn't help but also became weird.

   Yeqin also noticed the movements of Youssé-Bot. His starting line was behind the opponent. Although he couldn't see his facial expressions, his movements made him feel funny.

   He has seen the opponent's performance in the semi-finals, and now finally met in the finals for the first time.

   The camera quickly scanned the eight contestants present, and left the track, and the men’s 200m final was about to begin!
