On February 11, the Chinese team competed in the short track speed skating men's 5000m relay semifinals, the fourth crossed the finish line, the time was 6 minutes 51 seconds 05, because Li Wenlong was kicked knife, so the Chinese team was awarded to the Final of Group A and could impact the gold medal. This game the Chinese team promotion process is thrilling, when Li Wenlong fell, Ren Ziwei rushed up in time to hand over the baton, Li Wenlong also got up for the first time, this scene is moving, Li Wenlong and the Chinese team did not give up the game, and the final result was also very good.
It is worth mentioning that when the Chinese team advanced, the Korean media questioned, saying that the Chinese team relied on the "invisible hand" to advance to the final.
When Li Wenlong fell, the two major explanations were different, CCTV commentary said that the Chinese team made a mistake, thinking that Li Wenlong himself fell, so he felt that the Chinese team made a mistake and there was no hope of promotion.
Another commentator, Wang Meng, explained differently, she said at the first time not to be nervous, Li Wenlong was kicked by the opponent.
Wang Meng also explained, confident in his own judgment, and recalled that because of the humble consultation of that year, he could sit here today to explain. Wang Meng said:
"The opponent has a knife kicking action, just slide normally, I think the Chinese team will be judged to advance to the final of Group A." First of all, I'm an athlete myself. I like to interpret rules and discuss. When I was a coach, I knew the pressure I was carrying, to overcome language, to communicate with referees and the world, I had to learn, I couldn't argue. You have to convince me, we have suffered losses. I am not allowed to find a referee, so I will look for an official, find the leader of the referee, and I must ask clearly. Go back and explain it to our team members.
Why am I sitting here? Because I once asked the technical representative of the International Skating Union for two hours about the rules in this case! I'm a professional, and there's a reason I'm able to sit here. We are not afraid of losing, we are afraid of losing in an unclear way. ”
It can be said that Wang Meng, who was once a top athlete, was quite accurate in judgment, and the final result was exactly the same as her judgment, the Chinese relay team was sentenced to the final, and compared to it, CCTV's commentary is a bit large, of course, it can be understood.
Wang Meng spoke bluntly this evening, and she would not deliberately favor the athletes of the Chinese team and even make kind criticisms:
In the women's 1000m 1/4 final, the second group, South Korea's Li Youbin won the first place, the result was only 1 minute 29 seconds 120 seconds, the first group of Chinese team eliminated Qu Chunyu was eliminated in 1 minute 28 seconds 355 seconds was eliminated. Huang Jianxiang said that Qu Chunyu is still the first in this group. Wang Meng said: "Qu Chunyu is the fourth place in that group, all of them have been eliminated, saying that Ganha. ”
In the women's 1000m 1/4 final, the third group, Zhang Chutong was in the bottom position all the way, and only surpassed the Japanese players in the last lap, and finally won the 4th place with 1 minute 29.755 seconds, and was directly eliminated. Wang Meng said: "Is it so difficult to dare to compete? At the moment I miss Zhang Yuting very much, this group is so slow, hey, I don't want to say it. Dare to compete first, you have to go to the front at the beginning, is it so difficult? Is it that hard to shoot up and pick me up? ”
So there is a reason why Wang Menghuo said that her first point was professional, accurate judgment, and almost never made a mistake. At the same time, as a commentator, Wang Meng will not deliberately favor the players of the Chinese team, which is difficult to do, and it is clear that Wang Meng's commentary style is understood and accepted by more people. At the same time, Wang Meng is also the "lucky star" of the Chinese team, and she is also looking forward to her next explanation.
