Yesterday (February 16), ushered in the final battle of China's short track speed skating, in the final of the 5000-meter relay race due to Sun Long's mistake fell, the Chinese team missed the medal, and finally won the fifth place.
Sun Long wept with chagrin
Wu Dajing: Give him encouragement
In the post-match interview area, Sun Long once shed "boy tears": everyone's efforts were in vain.
At the same time, Wu Dajing, who was on the sidelines, said that this was Sun Long's first time participating in the Winter Olympics and was under unimaginable pressure from the outside world. He revealed that after the game, Sun Long also kept saying sorry and shedding tears with them, "We will not blame him, but we will give him more encouragement." "Wu Dajing said that this is a very good exercise for the young general, and it is also something that everyone needs to sum up and improve in future training." Something went wrong, and the team carried it together. ”
Late at night on the 16th, short-track speed skater Sun Long posted an apology on the social platform, saying 6 "I'm sorry".
Explaining that today's fall was caused by the rush, "I am really sorry for my teammates, sorry for our coaching staff and the whole team, sorry for all the ice fans who like short track speed skating, sorry for the family and friends who have always believed in me and have high hopes for me, but the most sorry I am most sorry for is to nurture my motherland." 」 I let everyone down, I will accept all the criticism from everyone, really sorry! ”
Wang Meng once returned him to the provincial team
Hate iron is not steel
In the sprint stage of the final 5,000-meter relay, Sun Long's center of gravity was unstable and he made a mistake and directly "flew" out of the track. Wang Meng was silent for a long time in the commentary: "I can't scold anymore, I'm speechless." "If you don't ask for anything you can do, you can't be stable."
As early as the previous commentary of the 1500m 1/4 final, Wang Meng had been "angry" once because of him. After watching this game, we all know that Sun Long is basically behind after the opening, and the whole game slides down 1500 meters, and I don't see Sun Long have the consciousness of rushing forward. Wang Meng has already bluntly said that Sun Long's behavior is a waste of national resources, and if I am on the scene, I will directly give him a big mouth.
The reason why Wang Meng is so angry is because she has previously been the head coach of the Chinese short track speed skating team and knows Sun Long very well. Wang Meng said in the program that he once took Sun Long to Europe to participate in a competition, and this phenomenon of passive sabotage also appeared in the competition. Therefore, as the head coach, she directly booked him a return ticket at that time, and returned him to the provincial team.
There is also a young player born in 2004, Zhang Tianyi, who is only 17 years old this year, and his purpose of participating in the competition is very clear, mainly to feel the atmosphere of the competition. Accumulating some experience in competitions, Sun Long is born in 2000, a rising star of the Chinese short track speed skating team, and won the world youth championships 1000 meters short track speed skating championship in 2020, which is the key training object of the Chinese short track speed skating team.
Not everyone has the next four years
"Anything is possible" is the charm of competitive sports
Wang Meng said in the live broadcast room that not everyone has another four years of opportunities. Many netizens are also difficult to ping: 20-year-old Sun Long may still have many 4 years, but the 28-year-old Wu Dajing is gone!
Four years is so precious for an athlete's career that once their peak is missed, they can never come back. Injuries, psychological adjustments, and external pressures continue to follow, and we ordinary people can't imagine how much effort is needed behind an honor.
Although Sun Long's performance in the Winter Olympics this time has not satisfied everyone, we cannot deny his efforts. He also practiced hard from an early age to enter the arena, to enter the national team, and to become a member of the Winter Olympics. As an athlete, he is a soldier for the country, and no one would want to have this scene.
Maybe that's the beauty of competitive sports. Having the courage to go forward without knowing what will happen to the road ahead, "anything is possible" is the most appropriate way to describe it. Many former short track speed skaters shared that this project is like this, anything can happen, collision is normal, I hope Sun Long will not blame himself anymore, and summarize the experience after the end!
Netizen: "Keep up the good work!" ”
Wang Meng also said: "You can't let athletes carry baggage. ”
In the Weibo comment area, it is the voice of netizens who warmly comforts and encourages:
"Please punch us in the face with the next Olympics!"
I hope that Sun Long will be painful

Reflect on the summary
Constantly improve yourself and win glory for the country!
