Before shooting, Tang Yan turned around and looked over at Ezekiel Jafari, trying to find some similarities between him and Nick Jafari. But after looking over for a while, he found that there was nothing similar about the two.It seemed to be purely a coincidence.
Recognizing this, he put away his thoughts and focused his attention on the court.
Because the Chinese team"s performance was better than the Nigerian team, this time Tang Yan was first to shoot.
He adjusted his posture, followed up with no politeness, starting with a 10 pointer then a 9 pointer. The performance of the 19 points was also the most direct manifestation of his current strength.
Such an outstanding performance also attracted a burst of cheers from the audience.
After the amazing performance at yesterday"s qualifiers, Tang Yan"s popularity on the court had reached a high level.
However, this cheer didn"t last for long and was replaced by a burst of exclamation.
Jafari under pressure, had also shot two arrows for 19 points as well.

In Tang Yan"s heart, he paid tribute to Jafari in his heart. The psychological quality of this Nigerian archer was really good.
With Jafari drawing their round, the score of the first set ended as 54 to 49, with the Chinese team in the lead winning one game.
The second game was exactly the same as the first game. Li Haoze and Zheng Zhun performed well which caused them to lead 34 to 29 after four arrows, followed by the personal confrontation between Tang Yan and Jafari again.
At this time, the audience were all looking on antic.i.p.ation. They weren"t concerned about the scores of the two teams at the moment, but the personal contest between two top archers. This was like a preview of the individual compet.i.tion tomorrow.
The excellent performance of Jafari made his adrenaline soar and his whole body and spirit reached a state of excitement.
Before meeting the Korean archers, Jafari was undoubtedly the best person to push him.
After Tang Yan gained 70% of Li Guang"s ability, his score at 72-arrows was around 680 points. His probability of scoring 9 to 10 points was relatively high.
After he concentrated, he entered a calm state and his two arrows were both stable 10 pointers, which immediately attracted the excitement of the audience.
This kind of play also showed that his performance yesterday wasn"t accidental. Tang Yan was definitely the biggest dark horse in this year"s archery compet.i.tion.
After Tang Yan"s shot many people subconsciously believed that Tang Yan had won this match up.
But what everyone hadn"t imagined was, that although the speed and beauty of the shot wasn"t perfect, both the two arrows from Jafari was also two 10 pointers!
This time, the entire venue detonated in excitement.
The biggest charm of the archery compet.i.tion wasn"t how many 10-points the archers shot, but the match up between the players. Although it wasn"t a personal match, the level of excitement was better than an individual match.
The excellent performance of Jafari also boosted the morale of the Nigerian archers.
In the third game, the two other Nigerian players performed supernaturally. After four arrows, they had pulled back the game and drawn the score to 34-points to 34-points.
In this way, the final winner of this game was to be decided by Tang Yan and Jafari.
The mood of the audience rose to another level. Perhaps before the start of the game, no one expected that a normal knockout would evolve into such a situation.
Tang Yan turned his head and looked at Jafari before shooting. The corners of his mouth showed a smile, the game was really becoming more and more interesting.
Noticing that Tang Yan was watching him, Jafari also showing his white teeth gave a kind smile.
At this moment, there was a feeling of camaraderie between the two people.
Tang Yan nodded, then turned his head and took out the bow and arrow from the arrow pot.
The first arrow was a steady 10-pointer.
The second arrow, hit veered of slightly but still hit the edge of the 10 pointer ring, but because more of the arrow was in the 10 pointer ring, it was ruled as a 10 pointer.
Counting this, that was four 10 pointers in a row!
This strong performance made the audience more excited, and also caused the South Korean Coach Wu Quantai to show a dignified look.
If yesterday"s qualifiers was amazing, then today"s performance was even more threatening.
The South Korean Team had not tasted defeat in the international arena for a long time, especially the men"s team. If they set a precedent here, the pressure on him after returning home would be unimaginable.
Jafari couldn"t continue the magic this time. Although his strength was excellent, there was still a gap compared with Tang Yan. The final score of his set of arrows was 18 points, which also caused Nigeria to lose the third game.
"We are going back to the Olympic Village." said Wu Quantai. The South Korean Team members didn"t stay to watch the rest of the game, but returned in advance.
He couldn"t control the individual matches tomorrow, but at least for the team match with the Chinese Team, he had to make sure that he could win it.
With the outstanding performance of Tang Yan"s 116 points, the Chinese Team finally eliminated the Nigerian Team winning all six rounds and advanced to the second round of the knockout stages.
After the game, Tang Yan took the initiative to shake hands with Jafari.
Jafari"s final score was 110 points, although less than Tang Yan"s the two"s match up in the Youth Olympic Games was bound to become a hot topic for the audience and the archers.
After the Chinese Team eliminated the Nigerian team, their next round opponent was the strongest opponent in the world of archery, South Korea.
Although the Youth Olympics was for young athletes, they still couldn"t change the absolute dominance of the Korean team. This was bound to be a hard battle.
What is even more intriguing is that in the mouth of Park Tae-an and Tang Yan, both sides mentioned that one party would sit on the sidelines and witness another team to win the champions.h.i.+p. This kind of early encounter made this an inevitable result.
After the group finished their game, they returned to the Olympic Village to rest.
Tang Yan arrived back and saw Lu Yun holding a cold compresses on his forehead.
"Your back, I just finished watching your game, you are too strong!" Seeing Tang Yan back, Lu Yun said getting up from watching tv. His face was full of excitement.
Seeing Lu Yun"s reaction, Tang Yan said with a smile: "What about you, what happened to your head?"
"I was up against a Thai boxer, he caught me with a few good punches." Lu Yun cursed and said.
"But you still won?" Tang Yan asked with a smile.
"Of course, I won, by a KO!" Lu Yun said, waving his arm and doing an uppercut motion.
