188 The Finale 3

In the first 50 meters of the breaststroke, except for the Japanese team that was still leading the way, the order of the other lanes changed a lot.

Australia and Germany overtook the United States to take second and third place respectively.

Li Xiang was now biting on the heels of the US's Mark Ganglof who was in fourth place.

After the 50 meter turn, Li Xiang was still desperately chasing but his strength was a little worse for wear. In the end, he was overtaken by the Canadian swimmer Andrew Dickens and touched the wall in sixth place.

After touching the wall, he slid directly into the pool and took a few sips of water. Fortunately, he responded quickly and grabbed the handrails before he drowned. His condition was miserable.

Although he was chased from fourth to sixth, he had exceeded his personal best time, which showed how desperately he had tried.

Just then, there was another burst of cheers and whistles at the scene.

All eyes shifted to the fourth lane.

The breaststroke was followed by the butterfly stroke. In the fourth lane was the US team's ace, Phelps.

After Phelps entered the water, he launched forward, he seemed to be flying. By the 30 meter mark, he had surpassed the German team and entered third place.

Going into the 50 meter turn, he was almost on par with the Australian swimmer.

By the time they came out the turn, Phelps had surpassed the Australian swimmer and was only one metre away from the Japanese swimmer.

At the 70 metre mark, Phelps didn't even give Japan's Takuro Fujii the slightest chance and directly swept past him.

How was this a human? He was simply a flying fish!

Japan's advantage from the backstroke and breaststroke was instantly reversed and thrown back in their face.

Phelps in the last 30 meters drew away from the rest of the pack and opened up a healthy gap.

In the end, Phelps was the first to reach the wall, with a full metre and a half lead.

"Phelps is really too strong, anything that involves the butterfly stroke is tantamount to handing over a gold medal to the US team in advance!" The main commentator said, conquered by Phelps' powerful performance.

"But our youngster Shi Yang is also good. He didn't get pulled away from and kept sixth place!" At this moment, the guest commentator followed up.

With the commentary of the guest commentator, the audience who was attracted by Phelps noticed Shi Yang. This young man was the substitute put in place to replace Zhou Jiawei.

He had exploded forward with a lot of potential and in the end, he almost matched the Canadian Joseph Bartoch in fifth place to reach the wall at the same time.

Although Shi Yang gasped heavily after touching the wall, he immediately looked back at the pool, his gaze holding excitement, anxiety and anticipation.

Nathan Adrian, the last swimmer for the US team, quickly advanced on Phelps lead and soon expanded it to more than two and a half metres.

At this time, the United States team was particularly prominent among the row of swimmers.

"The strength of this second half of the US's team is really too strong. It is difficult for the other swimmers to really impact them!" The guest commentator said with emotion.

"Our lads have done the best they can." The main commentator said with emotion, at this time Nathan Adrian had swam nearly seven or eight meters before Shi Yang touched the wall.

For Tang Yan to catch up with the top three was like closing the distance between heaven and earth.

"Tang Yan has entered the water!" Although it was already difficult to catch up, when he saw Tang Yan entering the water and thought of his previous performances, the commentator shouted excitedly.

In fact, it was more than just the commentator, when Tang Yan entered the water, almost everyone in the audience turned from Nathan Adrian to Tang Yan.

In the current situation, the third place German team was more than five meters ahead of Tang Yan and to catch up would require a miracle to occur.

And if a miracle was to occur, the only person that could possibly pull it off was Tang Yan who had created countless such miracles before!

"He's off chasing for blood!" The commentator shouted excitedly.

In the pool, Tang Yan pushed the limit of his nine kick frequency right from the beginning.

"This speed, the Chinese team has hope!" The commentator shouted excitedly afterwards.

At this time, some spectators at the scene excitedly stood up from their seats, cheering excitedly at the pool.

Tang Yan was advancing at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

By 10 meters he had passed the Canadian swimmer Brent Hayden in fifth.

Reverse, kick the wall, launch off. Turning at 50 meters, Tang Yan continued to pursue in full strength.

At 60 meters, Tang Yan surpassed Shogo Hihara, the swimmer for the Japanese team to take fourth place.

By 70 meters, the distance between Tang Yan and the third place German team had changed from more than 5 meters to only three metres and one position down.

"Tang Yan is flying, absolutely tearing through! The Chinese team has a chance at a medal! We truly have a chance!" The main commentator was shocked by Tang Yan's phenomenal level of transcendence.

"Tang Yan! Tang Yan!"

The audience on the sidelines completely lost it. They could sense the unyielding determination from the pool.

Tang Yan was accelerating! Speeding up crazily!

"Tang Yan has surpassed the swimmers of the German team! Third place! He's actually taken third place hahahaha, I can't believe it"

On the sidelines at this time, most of the audience stood up, waving their arms and cheering for Tang Yan loudly.

"There is less than 20 meters to go. He is chasing Magnussen. He wants more than bronze!" The commentator excitedly picked up the microphone, as he jumped up and exclaimed.

"It's the last 15 meters, Tang Yan is still accelerating and accelerating. He has the opportunity to catch up with Magnussen!"

"Magnussen has also started a crazy sprint. He's making a mad dash for the finish, there is less than 10 meters left! A distance of less than 10 meters!"

With Tang Yan's crazy performance in the pool, the commentator also went completely crazy with joy.
