In the women's team final of the Paris Olympics last night, after the Chinese women's team drew 2-2 with the Korea women's team, they lost to the Korea women's team with three arrows and 27 rings in the extra round. The Korea women's team's 29-ring results relied on two 10-ring lines, and it was with these two millimeters that they narrowly defeated the Chinese women's team and created the myth of 10 Olympic champions.
Dramatic winning and losing hands
After the two sides fought to a 2-2 draw, they entered the single-arrow winner and loser play-off round (normally two arrows per person in each round, each team has a total of six arrows, the total rings are added, and the team with the highest number of rings wins), that is, in the winner-loser play-off round, a dramatic scene occurred...
First arrow: Korea shot 10 rings in the line, and the score on the big screen showed 9 rings, but the result had to be determined by the referee after the match. The first arrow of the Chinese team only hit 8 rings. The Chinese team is one ring behind.
Second arrow: The Korea team shot 9 rings, and the Chinese team steadily shot the inner 10 rings of the bull's eye, and the two sides were tied.
Third Arrow: Korea again hit a 10-ring line. At this time, the score on the big screen shows 9 rings, and the total score is 27 rings, which means that the Chinese team only needs to shoot more than 9 rings to win the game. Sure enough, the third arrow of the Chinese team hit 9 rings. At this time, the big screen shows that the total score of both sides is also 27 rings. According to the rules, in the case of the same number of rings, because the Chinese team has 10 rings, then the Chinese team will win the game.
However, just as the Chinese audience cheered for the three girls, a dramatic scene occurred. After the judge's confirmation, the results of the first and third arrows of the Korea team were changed to 10 rings, and as a result, the Korea women's team defeated the Chinese women's team by two rings and won the gold medal in the Olympic event for the 10th time. The Chinese women's team lost by a millimeter and finished second in the event for the fifth time.
The higher the appearance, the more accurate the shot
The three archers of the Chinese team are: Li Jiaman (first arrow), Yang Xiaolei (second arrow), An Qixuan (third arrow).
The three archers of the Korea team are: Jeon Hoon-young (first arrow), Nam so-hyun (second arrow), and Lim Si-mi (third arrow).
In the archery team competition, the weakest team member is usually placed in the first arrow position, the strongest team is usually placed in the second arrow position, and the strongest psychological quality is placed in the last arrow position.
In fact, the Chinese team and Li Jiaman and the Korea team Jeon Hoon Young are both slightly weaker players in both teams, and coincidentally, both are the face of their respective teams. Not only that, but in this final, the two not only have the highest appearance in the team, but also have accurate archery.
Taking Korea's Jeon Hoon Young as an example, when he defeated the Chinese team 56:53 in the first round and 55:54 in the second round, Jeon Hoon Young shot 10 rings many times, which became the guarantee of the team's victory, especially in the playoff round of the single arrow decisive victory, and even played the winner of the 10 rings of the line. It is not an exaggeration to describe her with the higher her appearance, the more accurate she will ejaculate.
Taking China's Li Jiaman as an example, when defeating Korea 54:51 in the third round and 55:53 in the fourth round to tie the score, Li Jiaman's performance was no worse than Jeon Hoon-young. The same multiple 10 rings were also played to lay a solid foundation for the team's victory. It's just that in the final round, you are either too nervous, or too stressful, or a little unlucky, otherwise the outcome is still unknown.
Conclusion
In the women's archery team final of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, the six girls from China and South Korea not only have exquisite archery skills, but also have pleasing appearances.
It was a memorable game, with regrets but also gains. I would like to pay tribute to Li Jiaman, Yang Xiaolei and An Qixuan of the Chinese women's archery team for winning honor for the motherland. At the same time, I also congratulated the three girls of the Korea women's archery team for winning the gold medal in the women's team and creating the myth of 10 champions.
Chinese team, come on!
