On the evening of July 29, 2024, at 11:30 Beijing time, the final of the men's gymnastics team competition of the Paris Olympics began. The Chinese lineup this time includes Zhang Boheng, Xiao Ruoteng, Zou Jingyuan, Liu Yang and rookie Su Weide. Sun Wei, the originally planned player, was unable to participate due to injury, and Su Weide was substituted. After three years of training, Zhang Boheng has grown from a substitute player in the Tokyo Olympics to the core of the Chinese team.
The Chinese team performed quite strongly in the qualifying round, not only ranking first, but Zhang Boheng also won the first place in the individual all-around.
At the beginning of the floor exercise, everyone was full of expectations for the performance of the Chinese team. Xiao Ruoteng, as a veteran, was the first to complete his movements, and although the movements were smooth, the score was only 13.966 points, which made many viewers a little nervous. Next, Zhang Boheng played, his jumps were powerful and steady, and he scored 14.233 points, which slightly alleviated everyone's worries. Newcomer Su Weide performed steadily under pressure, scoring 14.333, which can be regarded as a good foundation for the team. However, in the face of the performance of the Japan team, the Chinese team struggled a little. Japan's Suzuma and Hashimoto Daiki's scores were impressive, especially Hashimoto Daiki's high score of 14.633 points, which put the Chinese team slightly at a disadvantage in this round. At this time, many netizens started a discussion on social media. Someone said: "It seems that we really have to work hard this time, the performance of the Japan team is too stable." Another netizen commented optimistically: "Free gymnastics is just the beginning, we still have a chance." ”
Moving on to the pommel horse event, China's Zou Jingyuan performed bravely, leading with 14.800 points. His performance instilled confidence in the Chinese team. Zhang Boheng and Xiao Ruoteng scored 14.433 points and 14.333 points respectively, playing steadily. In comparison, Japan's Suzuma scored 14.366 points, and Masayo Sugino performed steadily, scoring 14.866 points. However, Daiki Hashimoto made a mistake in this round and only scored 13.100 points, affecting the overall results of the Japan team. After this round, the Chinese team began to gain more support in the discussion among netizens: "Daiki Hashimoto's fall was really unexpected, and it seems that we have a chance to overtake." Some netizens mentioned: "Zou Jingyuan's saddle horse is really stable, which gives us a lot of confidence!" ”
The rings project became the highlight of the Chinese team. Zou Jingyuan had a good start with a score of 14.933 points, and Zhang Boheng also scored 14.833 points, and his form picked up. Liu Yang's performance was even more impressive, winning the applause of the audience with the highest score of 15.000 points. Japan did not perform as well as China in the rings, with Xuan Kazuma scoring 14.000 points and Oka Shinnosuke only 14.133 points. After the rings event, the Chinese team extended their lead to 2.6 points. At this time, netizens said: "The performance of the ring is fantastic, and now we are a lot ahead!" Another person said: "Liu Yang's rings are really eye-catching, amazing!" ”
However, the vault event brought challenges to the Chinese team. Xiao Ruoteng performed well with a score of 14.800, and Zhang Boheng also scored 14.533 points, with a stable performance. However, Su Weide made a major mistake in this round, scoring only 12.766 points, putting a lot of pressure on the Chinese team. Japan's Masayo Sugino scored 14.700 points and Daiki Hashimoto performed well with 14.900 points and quickly caught up. In the end, the Chinese team was recouped with 1.3 points in the vault event and faced more pressure. Some netizens began to be a little worried, "Su Weide's mistake is really worrying, what can I do if it goes on like this?" Another person said: "The Japan team performed well in the vault this time, we have to come on!" ”
The parallel bars event is a crucial moment for the Chinese team to win the gold medal. Seeing Xiao Ruoteng's stable performance on the bar, his movements were smooth and elegant, and he finally scored 14.733 points, which made everyone breathe a little relieved. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Boheng showed his demeanor as a captain and steadily suppressed the opponent with a high score of 15.100 points. The cheers in the audience continued, and everyone's tension eased slightly.
Previously, Ye Zhennan, the leader of the national gymnastics team, was full of praise for Zhang Boheng. He mentioned that Zhang Boheng is an all-round player with great potential in recent years. Although Ye Zhennan felt very sorry that he was not selected for the Tokyo Olympics, Zhang Boheng was not discouraged. Instead, he trained harder, especially in the horizontal bar event. He added a backflip to the horizontal bar for a two-week over-the-bar grapple, a change that improved his difficulty score by 0.3 to 0.4 points to a total of 6.2. This has undoubtedly boosted his all-around competitiveness and made him even more indispensable in the team.
Many netizens are also discussing this topic on social media. A netizen sighed: "Zhang Boheng's efforts this time are really visible, he didn't give up because of Tokyo's regrets, and really cheered for him!" Another netizen said: "It's really smart to increase the difficulty score, Zhang Boheng's progress is too obvious!" ”
In particular, Zou Jingyuan's performance was perfect, with a perfect score of 16.000 points, which made people feel extremely excited. After this round, the lead of the Chinese team expanded to 3.2 points, the atmosphere became more enthusiastic, and everyone began to believe that the hope of the gold medal was getting bigger and bigger.
The next horizontal bar event is worrying. Xiao Ruoteng appeared on the court, his movements were still elegant, but because he bent his knees when he fell to the ground, he only scored 13.033 points in the end. This score made the players feel a little uneasy in their hearts. Then there was Su Weide, whose performance was disappointing - he dropped twice in a row and scored only 11.600 points, which dragged down the overall score of the Chinese team. The atmosphere in the stadium suddenly became dull, and many people's hearts began to heavily. Although Zhang Boheng tried his best to score 14.733 points, it was difficult to make up for the previous point difference.
Japan's performance also brought pressure, with Daiki Hashimoto and Shinnosuke Oka scoring 14.566 and 14.433 respectively, which was not particularly outstanding, but enough to put pressure on the Chinese team. In the end, the Chinese team scored a total of 259.062 points and could only be relegated to the runner-up. Japan won the gold medal with 259.594 points, while the United States won the bronze medal. Seeing the result, many people felt sorry in their hearts and couldn't help but feel sorry for the defeat of the Chinese team.
The Chinese team had an up-and-down performance in this final, and despite excellent performances in several events, they eventually lost in the crucial horizontal bar event, resulting in the gold medal being missed, and finally had to accept the silver medal. This match fully demonstrated the suspense and drama on the gymnastics field, which made people feel sorry for the performance of the Chinese gymnastics team.
