Swimming in Vietnam caused a storm at the 31st SEA Games, Schooling removed the medal
Vietnamese swimmers did something unbelievable at the 31st SEA Games when they beat Singapore to win gold, breaking the record in the 4x200m freestyle.
Before entering the 4x200m freestyle, no one thought that the Vietnamese swimming team could make a big deal. Because Schooling and his teammates are holding the record won at SEA Games 30 with 7 minutes 17 seconds 88. sea Games 3 years ago, the Singapore swimming team acquired all 5 relay events.
But an unexpected thing happened at My Dinh Aquatic Palace, the boys of the Vietnamese swimming team made the opponent really shocked.
The home team was placed in the 2nd swimming lane. Nguyen Huu Kim Son was the pioneer with the first swim. This swimmer only finished 4th. Then Nguyen Huy Hoang competed in his 2nd swim. This is the swimmer who made the turning point for a historic evening of Vietnamese swimming.
“Otter” River Gianh made a spectacular breakthrough to help the home team rise to the top. From there, Hoang Quy Phuoc and Tran Hung Nguyen had a great advantage before gradually leaving their opponents to finish first with 7 minutes 16 seconds 31, far ahead of Singapore by more than 5 seconds (7 minutes 21 seconds 49). ); at the same time broke the SEA Games record.
It is difficult to describe the feelings of Vietnamese fishermen when they are winners. Vietnam has surpassed Singapore – a swimming powerhouse of Southeast Asia.
This is a gold medal that is probably beyond the calculation of Vietnamese swimming and all professionals and fans. This is also the second gold medal in relay content at the 31st SEA Games. Previously, the 4x100m medley swimming team won the gold medal quite fortunately when two teams from Singapore and Malaysia broke the rules. But this time, the golden boys of Vietnamese swimming have a completely convincing victory.
Because of his disappointment, Singapore swimming legend Joseph Schooling hastily removed the bronze medal from his neck. He and his teammates retreated quickly to the dressing room as if to forget the defeat, but will certainly receive a lot of criticism from the Lion Island press in the coming days.
