On February 16, Beijing time, the short track speed skating men's 5000 meters relay Group A final, Canada gold medal, South Korea silver medal, Italian bronze medal, the Chinese team because of Sun Long's relatively low-level one of their own slip mistakes, and finally won the fifth place. Wang Meng really endured anger and did not want to scold people, and netizens were also very restrained, after all, the team game was ruined by the mistakes of one person, and the parties must be uncomfortable. However, the selection of the Chinese team in the short track speed skating competition of the Winter Olympics has still triggered discussion.
The current top strength of the Chinese short track speed skating team is not particularly much, the men's team, can be absolutely competitive in a single event is Ren Ziwei, Wu Dajing relies on strong experience and brilliant record, also can not let anyone ignore him. Although Li Wenlong's strength in a single event is slightly inferior, he also proved himself in the 1000-meter race, as for Sun Long, he is indeed in a poor state, and the single competition makes Wang Meng dissatisfied, this time he came to the team relay, Sun Long's mistake was slightly unexpected, a bit "inexplicable".
Maybe it was not ready, or maybe the pressure was too great, Sun Long's mistake made the Chinese team withdraw from the competition early. Wu Dajing fought very hard in this team game, and played very well, and the Chinese team actually had a chance, because the whole final was played at a very slow pace, and the decisive victory was originally in the last few laps, but the Chinese team withdrew from the competition early.
Sun Long, feeling uncomfortable in her heart, Wang Meng wanted to blame, but she still had to hold back, and she also complained about this mistake: "I can't scold anymore, what should I say?" Don't say it, say it and it's going to be a cyber storm again, and look back at what, my face is green! Netizens are indeed very restrained, at this moment, many people began to miss Ankai, who won 6 consecutive championships in the domestic arena before the Winter Olympics.
So, can the selection of The Chinese short track speed skating team be more optimized? It is a pity that Ankai, who was adjusted to the end, did not qualify for the Winter Olympics. In the end, Canada beat south Korea, also in ecstasy celebration.
