On the evening of February 5, Beijing time, the semi-final competition of the short track speed skating mixed team relay race at the Beijing Winter Olympics began to compete, and the Chinese team successfully broke through in the quarterfinals and entered the semi-final competition. In the semi-finals, the Chinese team crossed the finish line for the third time, but because both Russia and the United States were found to be fouled, the Chinese team qualified for the final.
In the semi-finals, the Chinese team was divided into Group B, and the opponents of the same group were Hungary, the Russian Olympic Committee and the United States. The other group has four teams: the Netherlands, Canada, Italy and Kazakhstan.
Compared with the quarter-final match, the Chinese team personnel in the semi-final were fine-tuned, and Zhang Yuting replaced Fan Kexin, and the four were Qu Chunyu, Zhang Yuting, Wu Dajing and Ren Ziwei.
The first shot was Qu Chunyu, and after the start, she competed very fiercely with the Hungarian team, and Hungary was slightly in the lead. After the baton was handed over, the Chinese team still ranked 2nd, and the United States and Russia gradually caught up. After consecutive card slots, the Chinese team fell to the last place.
The competition in this group was very fierce, and the Chinese team gradually chased the second place with 7 laps left, but then the United States and Hungary overtook again. Wu Dajing could not surpass the last two laps, and the Chinese team crossed the finish line for the third time with a time of 2:38.783. After a lengthy review, the referee found that the United States and Russia had committed a foul, so the Chinese team and the Hungarian team qualified for the final.
