Tell the story of one or two disabled athletes.

Born on 1978. At the age of 8, his left leg was accidentally broken by a machine and amputated 12.5 cm, making him a disabled child. In order to prevent leg atrophy, the following summer vacation, his father Yu Xinsen, who likes sports, handed him over to Zheng Zhifu, the swimming coach of Putuo District Youth Sports School, hoping to keep fit through sports.

Yu showed good swimming quality in the training process, and his physical disability further stimulated his fighting spirit. He walks from shenjiamen No.1 Primary School to the swimming pool for training every day. Along the way, the new meat of the amputee was ground with blood by the prosthesis, and then soaked in the pool water for more than an hour. The wound hurt like a needle, but he said nothing. For a time, the swimming team of the junior sports school was changed into a flipper team. Because there is only one swimming pool, Yu can only train in the same swimming pool with the flippers. Because of the different swimming speed, I was injured many times, and my skin was cut by my flippers, and I often got hurt all over my body. But he gritted his teeth and persisted, never thinking of giving up.

Hard work pays off. In the second year of training, Yu, who was only 10 years old, beat many adults and won the third place in Zhoushan disabled swimming competition. Since then, he has won many awards at the provincial games for the disabled. 1997 won the first place in the 50-meter freestyle and 100-meter freestyle in the national swimming championships for the disabled, and then won the first place in these two events four times. At the Far East and South Pacific Games held in Busan, South Korea in 2002, he won 4×100m freestyle gold medal, 50m freestyle silver medal and 200m medley bronze medal. In 2004, as the first athlete selected for the Paralympic Games in our city, she won the bronze medal in the 4x4100-meter relay freestyle competition of 12 Athens Paralympic Games.

/kloc-at the age of 0/3, the battery suddenly exploded and fell into the dark abyss overnight.

With a bang, the colorful world collapsed in front of me, falling into the dark abyss with strong light and tearing pain. ......

This is a nightmare in Yang's memory. Every time this scene interrupts his sleep, Yang will wake up.

How much he wanted to forget, but he couldn't.

Yang liked playing football when he was in primary school. He stood on tiptoe and watched the football kick around, watching the ball fly over the goalkeeper and enter the beautiful arc of the goal after the start. He loved everything in front of him until 13 years old, and never thought that any power would take it away from him. When passing by the charger that the classmate inserted in the classroom, Xiao Xinqiang glanced at the charger that had already turned on the red light. This scene is the last one he saw in his life. The battery suddenly exploded, and debris and splashing solution fell into Xin Qiang's eyes. Due to the serious injury, Xin Qiang's eyes were removed, leaving only two empty eye sockets.

Since then, Xiao Xiao's temper has changed. He has become so sensitive and fragile that he can't stop crying when anyone says "blind". At the same time, Xiao Xinqiang is more competitive than before, and he has a strong self-esteem and can't listen to others saying that he can't. Every little thing reminds him of being looked down upon, and he will lose his temper. For a time, the small mood was pulled into the bottomless abyss by the darkness in front of me.

The first sentence when I joined the team was "My goal is the Paralympic Games"

As he grew older, he became blind and was no longer suitable for continuing his studies. Under the persuasion of his family, Xiao Xinqiang chose to go to a blind school. In June, 2005, in order to prepare for the upcoming Paralympics football match for the blind in Beijing, Heilongjiang Disabled Persons' Federation went to various schools to select players suitable for playing football. Because Yang used to play football, he was familiar with the rules and footwork of football and was successfully selected, so he began his career as a blind football player.

Many years later, Qin, coach of the provincial blind football team, still remembers the scene when Yang Gang joined the team. Qin said that since Beijing is the host of the 2008 Olympic Games, the national football team for the blind can directly obtain the right to participate in the Olympic Games. If you play well in the game, you may enter the national team. Everyone knows this truth, but few people say it. Yang has been different since he joined the team. As soon as he entered the provincial team, he found coach Qin and said, "I want to enter the national team and play the Paralympic Games!" "

At that time, coach Qin didn't know Yang, thinking that this 16-year-old boy was just young and full of energy, saying that he would cheer for himself, and he didn't care. But in later training, coach Qin found that Yang was not just talking. He works very hard in training and treats every confrontation as seriously as playing a game. The fight is fierce. When he makes a mistake, he will feel emotional and his nerves will be tense all the time. These performances have proved his strong desire to enter the Paralympic Games.

After a year of training, coach Qin has got to know his players very well. In his eyes, Zhang Qiang and Yang are the main force of the team and the most promising candidates to enter the national team and eventually enter the Paralympic Games. But the performance of these two people in training and competition is completely opposite. Zhang Qiang often can't reach the level of a main force in his usual training, but he is full of energy after playing a game, like a different person and belongs to a competitive player. But Yang is the hardest worker and performs best in training, but he often can't play his true level in competitions. Usually, finding the ball is fast and accurate, but you often can't find the ball in the game, and sometimes you lose your sense of direction. Not calm enough when dealing with the target. The more anxious you are to score, the easier it is to lose opportunities. Qin is anxious in his heart, because the psychological quality can not be solved by criticism and guidance. The key is to rely on the athletes themselves to mediate.

In 2006, he clearly saw his weaknesses.

In the summer of 2006, the National Football Championship for the Blind started. This blind football team trained by the Provincial Disabled Persons' Federation stood in the national competition for the first time. This competition is not only to show the elegance of disabled people in Longjiang, but also to win the quarter-finals and enter the 2007 National Games. Only in this way can we have a chance to enter the Paralympic Games. Our province is in a group with Liaoning, Shandong and other provinces. From the analysis before the game, our province and Shandong are at the forefront of the group, with equal strength, which will be a fierce battle. But Liaoning is only a striker and goalkeeper, and other aspects are not as good as our province. In terms of strength, it is not a big problem to beat the team. If you beat other teams such as Liaoning, you can advance even if you lose to Shandong.

The competition in our province is scheduled for the second competition day. On the first day, the coach led all the players to "listen" to a game of Liaoning team. With the help of excellent strikers and goalkeepers, the Liaoning team easily won the game. This worried the coach a little, but the players didn't agree.

The next day, the provincial team and the Liaoning team stood on the same field. At the beginning of the game, they saw that the strength of the two teams was different. In the words of coach Qin, the whole game was played by the Liaoning team. However, due to the rules of blind football, the goalkeepers are all healthy people with normal vision, and the shots are resolved by the opposing goalkeeper, which makes the players a little impetuous and unstable. At this time, Liaoning striker aimed at the opportunity to score a goal, and the score became 0 1. This made the players more impatient and failed to seize the opportunity to attack frequently, but it did not pose a threat to the other side. Seeing that the game is coming to an end, everyone feels desperate. At this moment, the ball landed at Yang's feet. Due to the mistakes of the opposing defenders, Huang Yang passed all the defenders, and one man tore open the opposing defense line with the ball and went straight to the goal.

This is a very good opportunity. Although the goalkeeper of blind football has normal eyesight, he can only move within three meters, and the goal is five meters. In other words, if the ball goes within one meter on both sides of the goal, there is nothing the goalkeeper can do. Yang Zui is good at chopping the ball. He has practiced this movement countless times. Without any defender at present, Yang should be able to kick a beautiful goal. Only now the distance between him and the target has exceeded ten meters. If the distance is reduced to less than five meters, Yang will definitely equalize the score with his powerful and clumsy blow.

In order to remind you to seize this rare opportunity, coach Qin shouted on the sidelines: "Don't worry, there is no one around, keep moving with the ball!" Kick closer! "Yang continued to take two steps, but when he was 10 meters away from the target, he suddenly started shooting. Because the distance is too far, the angle is not well controlled, and the strength is consumed by the distance. As expected, the ball was firmly grasped by the opposing goalkeeper. The final score was locked at 0- 1, and Liaoning unexpectedly defeated Heilongjiang.

That night, all the players didn't speak. The saddest thing in my heart is Yang. He didn't say a word, and his hands clenched into fists repeatedly. Because he wasted the best chance of the game, the whole team fell into a passive situation. Coach Qin knows very well that he wants to participate in the Paralympic Games so strongly that he wants to win more than anyone else, so it is more difficult for him to forgive himself when he makes inappropriate mistakes. Qin found it and talked to him once.

During the conversation, the coach found that the new team was stronger than before, and he also realized that he was too swayed by considerations of gain and loss in the game, which led to his loss of peace of mind when he came to the door. The coach also pointed out that Xin Qiang has no technical problems, because he works harder than anyone else in training, and the key is to beat himself on the court.

The next day, the desperate team played against Shandong, the strongest opponent of the group. Faced with strong opponents and qualifying pressure, the players showed unstoppable momentum, beating Shandong 3-0, and the last goal was Yang's small corner kick, which sealed the victory. Finally, he won the right to qualify for the group and entered the seventh National Games with the fifth place.

Yang and teammate Zhang Qiang also passed the primary election of the national team because of their outstanding performance in the competition. The coach saw Xin Qiang's change in the competition and became more confident in the child.

Selected national team

He grew up overnight.

In February 2007, the Provincial Disabled Persons' Federation arranged team members to go to Hainan for training to prepare for the National Games in May. At that time, the whole team was in good condition, and everyone wanted to get good results in the National Games and strive for more opportunities to enter the Paralympic Games. At this moment, Zhang Qiang, one of the main players of the provincial team, suddenly fell down with suppurative appendicitis.

The news of Zhang Qiang's illness is like a shadow, hanging over the hearts of all the players. In order to stabilize everyone's mood, coach Qin talked to the players once. Qin told the players that Zhang Qiang was ill, so he might miss the Paralympics and even end his sports career. The players were stunned. No one would have thought that things would become so serious, which was a great psychological blow to Yang.

Playing football in a dark world always makes people feel scared, but Yang has never felt such fear, and he will go straight in the right direction without hesitation. No one can play football for the blind without getting hurt, but Yang is the most injured person on the team because he works too hard. Since joining the provincial team, the skin on both sides of Xin Qiang's brow bones has been smashed into lacerations, and more than 10 stitches have been sewn inside and outside; There is a severe sprain in the right ankle, which has been used for many years; Nose bleeding, broken corners of the mouth, and skin bleeding on elbows and knees have become commonplace. However, coach Qin believes that if you dare to fight, you should also consider the consequences, and reckless desperation will lead to irreparable losses. At this time, Yang is also thinking silently. If it is really because he fought too hard and was seriously injured, he lost his qualification for the Paralympic Games because of injury, wouldn't it be a lifelong regret?

In the training since then, Yang has changed again. The first change is that he is very concerned about Zhang Qiang's illness, because Yang's personality is rather dull and he doesn't like to talk at ordinary times. He only works hard during training and doesn't often participate in conversations with teammates during rest time. He just listens to the radio by himself, and his teammates have less communication with him. However, after Zhang Qiang fell ill, Xin Qiang asked the coach about Zhang Qiang's illness every day. Sometimes the coach came back late to visit Zhang Qiang, and he wandered around the training ground, waiting for the coach to come back and ask a question before going back to rest. The communication with teammates is gradually increasing every day.

After that, the coach found other changes in Xin Qiang. For several days, Yang disappeared after dinner and didn't come back until eight o'clock. The coach didn't care at first. One night after 9 o'clock, I didn't see anyone. The coach hurried out to look for it and found that Yang was training under the guidance of the goalkeeper. The coach asked, "Why don't you go back so late?" Xin Qiang replied, "Coach, Zhang Qiang is ill and may not be able to take part in the competition. I must practice hard and strive to achieve a good result for our team. "

It stands to reason that the selection of national team members only depends on individual performance. Even if the team does not perform well, as long as the players play well, they can be selected. Xin Qiang has passed the primary election. With a solid training foundation, as long as he plays normally in the National Games, he can keep the quota of the national team, which also realizes his dream of entering the Paralympic Games. But now Xin Qiang has changed. He no longer only thinks about his Paralympic quota, but also values collective honor. Usually, the training of Xinqiang is very hard, but now he gives himself extra weight. In order to consolidate his technical movements, he readjusts his mental state so that he will not make previous mistakes, thus ensuring the performance of the team. Looking at the calm expression, coach Qin saw the great change in the young man's mentality, and his heart was warm.

At the National Games, Yang joined hands with injured Zhang Qiang and teammate Qi Xin, and finally won the third place in the country. At the same time, Xin Qiang was recognized by the China Disabled Persons' Federation and officially selected for the national team. He not only brought honor to the team, but also realized his Olympic dream. Xin Qiang proved by his actions that he is no longer the Yang of deep in the darkness. He is more sunny, happier and more mature than before.

During the training of the national team, coach Qin talked with his fans several times, and coach Qin felt that Yang had changed a lot. Because the blind soccer is a five-a-side system with eight players, coach Qin is worried that he won't have much playing time and is in a bad mood, but he always says, "Never mind, I have tried my best and won't regret it." He once described his teammates like this: "We are an inseparable group. Whether I play or substitute, our hearts are beating together. " The solid foundation laid by hard training and the innate indomitable spirit, coupled with the gradual peace of mind, Yang's paralympic trip realized his dream, and also took him away from the darkness in his heart and surpassed himself.
