On February 13, Beijing time, the winter Olympics short track speed skating men's 500 meters, Wu Dajing, Ren Ziwei and Li Wenlong joined forces to play, but due to ren Ziwei and Li Wenlong in the competition did not play well, did not qualify for the semifinals, Wu Dajing became a "single seedling". As the only gold medalist in the last Olympic Games, Wu Dajing was also ready to defend his title, and slipped out of the preliminaries to advance to the semi-finals. However, on the stage of the semi-finals, due to the influence of the foul of South Korean player Huang Daxian, Wu Dajing did not qualify for the final of Group A, and only won the first place in Group B, leaving regrets for his trip to the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Winning or losing in sports has a lot of suspense, which is also the biggest charm of competitive sports, but as the holder of world records and Olympic records, Wu Dajing is undoubtedly one of the athletes with the most promising title. At his own doorstep, although Wu Dajing has won the championship, he still left a huge regret in the individual race, which is also his best and most familiar 500-meter race because of the fouls of others. In this game, how much huang Daxian's foul action caused to Wu Dajing, you can briefly talk about it.
The foul occurred in the last lap, everyone began to speed up the sprint, Wu Dajing was no exception, originally with his position there was a great hope to get the opportunity to qualify, but Huang Daxian committed a foul in the competition, and after the foul, he directly "raised the knife" affected The back of Wu Dajing, had to slow down the pace of the sprint, and finally only got the third place result, and did not have the opportunity to enter the final. Originally, fouls on the short track speed skating arena were not uncommon, and there were many times in this Winter Olympics, but Huang Daxian's fouls were not too necessary, especially the action of raising the knife.
Because the ice knife is very sharp, all athletes will subconsciously retract the knife when they foul or slip, to avoid accidentally injuring other athletes, because such actions are very dangerous, in all the short track speed skating events of this Winter Olympics, huang Daxian's "bright knife" situation rarely appears. If Wu Dajing really couldn't control his speed and rhythm, the consequences would be unimaginable. And Huang Daxian would rather give up the last sprint opportunity, but also to make such a move, in the end, what is the purpose, there must be a special reason.
Before the start of the competition, short-track speed skating star Wang Mao also said in his commentary that athletes like Huang Daxian will definitely "let go" in the competition, not to say how strong he really is, but to say that he will definitely do something. Now, in front of the audience watching the game all over the world, everyone knows what Huang Daxian did, a conscious foul action, a conscious small action, which directly affected other athletes, and really did not know how the four words "sportsmanship" were reflected in this team.
When Wu Dajing was interviewed after the game, he also said that he would accept this result, but he was still very sorry. How can it not be regretted that as the defending champion of this project, it will be a little lost to say goodbye to the game in this way. We can't predict whether Wu Dajing will win the championship after he enters the final, but judging by his results in the preliminaries, there is still great hope. I hope that Wu Dajing can continue his state and continue to work hard, whether you win or lose, you are already one of the best players in short track speed skating, and also the indelible name of Chinese short track speed skating.
