　　Walking off the field, "regret" became the most intuitive feeling of the four boys for this game.

　　In the men's team finals of the Tokyo Olympic gymnastics event that ended on the 27th local time, the Chinese team consisting of Xiao Ruoteng, Zou Jingyuan, Sun Wei and Lin Chaopan won a bronze medal.

They are only 0.606 points away from the Russian Olympic Committee team, which is aspiring to the championship.

　　This is reminiscent of the Rio Olympics five years ago.

The same opponent, the same ranking, the same regret.

　　In Rio, the Chinese gymnastics team encountered Waterloo and finally ended with two bronze medals.

That was the first time since the team returned to the Summer Olympics in 1984 without a gold medal in the account, and the results fell into the bottom of history.

　　After five years of training and waiting, a beautiful turnaround at the Tokyo Olympics is the goal of the Chinese gymnastics team.

The men's team is not only a very heavy one, but also the first one to determine the championship. Therefore, the pressure on Xiao Ruoteng, Zou Jingyuan, Sun Wei, and Lin Chao is hard to imagine.

　　Among the four, Lin Chaopan felt more profound about the "turning over".

As a member of the Chinese gymnastics team, he experienced the darkest moments of the Rio Olympics with the team, so he said: "No one can feel how much we desire for this championship."

　　Over the past five years, many new faces have been ushered in on the stage of the Olympic men's team finals.

But what remains unchanged is that the three teams from China, Russia, and Japan who were on the podium that year are still capable of competing for the gold medal.

　　After entering the Tokyo Olympic cycle, Zou Jingyuan, Sun Wei and Xiao Ruoteng, who missed the Rio Olympics due to injuries, gradually carried the banner of the men's team.

During this period, the Japanese team, the champion of the Rio Olympics men's team, also gradually introduced fresh blood. The four players who appeared on the Tokyo stadium had no experience in Olympic games.

　　As the Chinese and Japanese teams alternate between new and old, and many well-known players fade out of the game, the Russian Olympic Committee team gradually took the lead under the leadership of star Nagorny.

However, in April this year, the main member Dala Loyang accidentally suffered a rupture of the Achilles tendon during training. Although he miraculously caught up with the Tokyo Olympics, his condition was obviously not at his best.

　　Every team has difficulties, and every team is overcoming them.

The strength of the three teams is among the best, and the championship depends on on-the-spot performance.

　　In this final, the Chinese team and the Japanese team were divided together.

Players of the two teams alternated on the court, which added another layer of pressure in the comparison.

Especially in the opening stage before adapting to the rhythm of the game, this kind of oppression is difficult to maintain a calm mind.

Xiao Ruoteng, who has won the world championship, said frankly that when he stepped onto the free exercise field, he felt nervous.

　　As the only veteran in the team who has participated in the Rio Olympics, Lin Chaopan assumed the heaviest responsibility-he was the first to appear in the first free exercise, and the last one on the horizontal bar.

　　For this team match, the Chinese team has done its best.

Xiao Ruoteng, who had a shoulder injury, relied on one stitch to close his teeth and play all six competitions.

Lin Chaopan was also troubled by shoulder injuries, while Zou Jingyuan’s muscles and Sun Wei’s wrists had problems during the game, but they still persevered...

　　After entering the press conference hall after the game, Zou Jingyuan's biceps still did not improve.

But he felt, "The fact is that we played as well as our opponents. It is regrettable, but everyone tried our best. We are still young and will continue to work hard.

　　Can afford to lose without being discouraged.

Although there is no gold medal as a footnote, Xiao Ruoteng said that in this final, they showed the style of Chinese gymnasts.

　　Apart from eating and sleeping, there is only training left in life.

For them who have come along like this, the bronze medal is certainly not satisfactory.

But in such dissatisfaction, each of them found its positive side.

As Zou Jingyuan said, being able to win the game in the event of an accident is not an accumulation of experience for him.

　　Sun Wei said that there are regrets, small regrets.

"There are three years left in the next session. Isn't it three years? Five years have been waiting, are you afraid of these three years?"

　　The Chinese men's gymnastics team will fight again in the Paris Olympics three years later!
