On February 11, 2022, Beijing time, the short track speed skating competition of the Beijing Winter Olympics broke out, and in the semifinals of the men's 5000 meters relay, the defending champion Hungary was unexpectedly out of the game, missed the Group A final, and withdrew from the medal battle early. In the women's 1000m Group A final, Shu Erting, who broke the world record before, successfully defended the title, and South Korea's ace Choi Min Jing won the silver medal, and she cried after the game.
The focus of the day was the women's 1000m final, with defending champion Shultin, Italy's Fontana and South Korea's Choi Min-jing being the favourites to win the title. Shultin is still leading the way, almost the whole lead, Cui Minjing's tactics are to follow behind, and try to surpass at the last moment. Unexpectedly, Italy's Fantana fell off the track and was found guilty of a foul after the race.
In the sprint stage, Cui Minjing strongly overtook and came to the second place, almost reaching the finish line at the same time as Shultin, but it was Still Shultin who was faster, and the Dutch star successfully defended his title. In the previous quarter-finals, Shultin broke the world record and won the final, which is of course the biggest winner of this matchday.
Choi Min-jing shouldered the heavy responsibility of winning the championship for the Korean women's team, and she was almost about to complete the overtaking, but she still fell short and won the silver medal. After the game, Cui Minjing lost her voice and cried bitterly, crying very loudly, looking very unwilling, and the coach constantly comforted her.
Wang Meng said that Cui Minjing's hard strength is very strong, absolute ability is one of the best, but the tactics are not too advanced, and now the short track speed skating is a state of fighting bravely, following behind and then looking for opportunities to overtake, not as easy as before, because everyone is improving, not a dominant state.
Another focus of the day was the men's 5,000m relay semi-finals, where china was sentenced to the Group A final despite falling down in the match, and Wang Said the rules were set like this, without any problems. In the other group, the defending champion Hungary itself made a mistake, although Liu Shaolin and Liu Shaoang attacked with all their might, but they were still out of the cold, and they did not have the opportunity to compete for medals, and could only participate in the final of Group B.
In the end, the teams participating in the final of the men's 5000m relay Group A were the Teams of Canada, Italy, China, South Korea and the Russian Olympic Committee!
