Merritt watched Liu Xiang take a step forward and crossed the finish line.

He was very confused inside.

Is there no chance?

no.

He definitely had a chance. Even if the startup reaction was slightly thrown away, his pure running at this point in time...

It is absolutely necessary to pull Liu Xiang apart.

But he still lost to Liu Xiang.

This is competitive sports. It’s not that the stronger you are, the more you are optimistic about the previous month of the game, you can laugh to the end. Merritt’s performance is actually not bad. He also ran 12.92 seconds in this game. In the face of a small headwind, it was already very powerful to achieve this result.

Not to mention that he made some mistakes in this game.

Otherwise, if the wind speed is strong, he will perform smoothly, and it is really possible that he will be able to break the world record of 12.85 seconds now.

It's a pity...

The moment he crossed the finish line.

I understand that my so-called battle has become the first in history and it has all become a bubble.

"Liu————————————————”

Listen to the name shouted out by the live commentator.

Merritt was a little disappointed.

But when he stopped his pace, he saw Liu Xiang rushing forward from behind, and was a little dazed.

Don't understand what happened?

Of course, he thought about it again. When Liu Xiang won the championship in 2004, he seemed to be like this and was stopped by the staff before he stopped. Fortunately, Liu Xiang did not run so far this time, and he was already blocked by Su Shen who appeared on the sidelines.

Merritt didn't know what the two of them said.

But he won the second place in this game and was also his first heavyweight Olympic honor. You can't say it's bad. Moreover, Liu Xiang once again set his Olympic record in this game. It seems that it is not that difficult to accept losing to his idol.

Think about it.

Merritt's victory rate against Liu Xiang was terrible.

It has never been a terrible sight.

This is still the same life, and the previous life is even more miserable. I have never won the outdoor competition.

To be honest, his rhythm confrontation ability is not bad, and his game adjustment ability is also excellent. Otherwise, you wouldn't have seen that the semi-finals had clearly knocked over the barracks, but they could still run within 12 seconds and 95.

But you have to see who you compare with. If you compare the rhythm with Liu Xiang, it is indeed difficult to win.

Moreover, he made various adjustments in this game and stretched his rhythm to the last bar. But he was not as bold as Liu Xiang and dared to do such a move. If it was not good to go straight down, his knee ligaments would be strained or even crushed.

Merritt was only 27 years old, and he felt that he still had some time, so he naturally didn't dare to do such a risky thing.

But if you didn't do it, and others did it, then he wouldn't be wronged if he lost this game.

This is not like someone is using external moves, holding hands in the middle or deliberately obstructing your game progress. It is just Liu Xiang's choice here, which is even more risky and the adventure is successful.

In the United States, there are similar proverbs.

Treasures are only rewarded to brave people.

Maybe he...

This is the reward for the brave.

Merritt walked over. Although he wanted to defeat Liu Xiang during the game, the two of them were once sparked.

But after the competition.

The place was quite modest and had more professional ethics from athletes. He adjusted his facial condition, just like walking over to give Liu Xiang a hug of champion and runner-up.

This is actually very common after large competitions.

But when he came over, he found that Liu Xiang did not turn around. Instead, Su Shen next to him said, "Wait a moment, Brother Xiang is not very convenient for him to turn around. Please come and hug him."

Um?

Not very convenient.

What's not very convenient?

Merritt turned around and saw Liu Xiang hanging the smile he had seen many times, as if nothing had happened, and said, "Sorry, Aris, my legs may be a little inconvenient now, so I can only ask you to come here on your own."

After saying that, Liu Xiang also stretched out his hands.

Have a hug with Merritt.

But he didn't take a single step in the whole process.

Merritt frowned a little, but when he saw the smile on Liu Xiang's face, he didn't say anything and took the initiative to walk up and hug Liu Xiang.

At this time, Liu Xiang's words made his face look frozen in place.

The camera just captured this scene.

Afterwards, Merritt said in an interview:

I was shocked when I heard this news, and even forgot about my defeat in this game.

I finally understood why I lost.

Treasures are rewarded to brave people.

Liu is braver than me in this fight.

So I lost it's not unfair.

Then this sentence is-

My Achilles tendon must have been broken, so it is not convenient, I hope you don't mind.

"Liu, you..." Merritt really didn't think of anything at this moment, and was completely shocked by the news.

"Yes." Liu Xiang said with a smile: "The second time I have this problem, I guess my career will end here."

"Aris, you are a genius. Your hard power is stronger than me. The future is your stage." Liu Xiang said beside him, reaching out to pat his back: "Enjoy it."

Merritt certainly understood what it means to have a broken Achilles tendon.

It’s hard to say that one break is broken, let alone two Achilles tendon surgeries? The key is that he looks like this. The breaking this time is not light, and it may not be a tear, but a complete break.

This is for any athlete.

All are catastrophes.

Seeing Liu Xiang, his generation of idols retreated like this, and he might never have the chance to compete with him again. Merritt's mood to lose the game at this time was already thrown out and said, "Then will you continue this sport? Liu."

"Hmm?" Liu Xiang didn't seem to expect Merritt to ask this question. After all, he just won him, which means that this guy has a higher professional ethics than he thought.

After thinking about it, he shook his head slightly.

"No, I probably won't continue."

“My story.”

"It's better to write it here."

After saying that, Liu Xiang was originally supported by Su Shen to come and face the surround. At this time, he seemed to suddenly think of something to signal Su Shen to help him turn around.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He approached Merritt and said, "By the way, you'd better check your kidneys. The kidneys control water. I see that your face is missing this."

After saying that, he patted Merritt on the chest and went to meet the reporters' long spears and short cannons with Su Shen.

Only Merritt looked at Liu Xiang's back as he gradually left.

He muttered, "What? The kidney controls water? What does this mean? Liu... can you tell fortunes? Or is this unique ability of Orientals?"

Anyway, this matter was remembered in Merritt.

This has had a great impact on his entire career.

...

"Brother Xiang, you feel sorry for your juniors." Su Shen said.

"Oh, he is indeed very talented. He is going to retire anyway. I feel relieved to pass on the title of King of the Roof to him." After Liu Xiang said that, a group of reporters rushed forward and almost squeezed him out.

"Liu, what do you think of winning the Olympic championship again?"

"Liu, congratulations on breaking the Olympic record again. Will you come to Moscow again next year?"

"Liu, congratulations on returning to the top. Do you have any plans to complete the four consecutive World Championships next year?"

This made Douri look anxious. This group of people were in a hurry and didn't give in to him at all.

But at this time, Liu Xiang just spoke and said lightly: "It shouldn't be there."

ha?!

Not going? Olympic champion, Olympic record holder, world record holder, in such a good state, tell me you won't go to Moscow anymore?
