There is an African athlete who was injured after retiring from the Olympic marathon. His famous saying that the country called me here not to listen to the gunshots and ask for the mission ~
In p>1968, at the Mexico City Olympic Games, Tanzanian athlete Al-Hawari was injured while participating in the marathon. When he limped the last person to cross the finish line with a bandage and a bleeding leg, the venue of tens of thousands of people was solemn, and the audience stood up and thunderous applause lasted for a long time. It was a touching scene. Although it had been nearly four hours since the gunshot and the sky was getting dark, people still paid their highest respects to the warrior. When asked why he didn't just quit the competition, Al-Hawari smiled and only said softly, "My motherland sent me here from 7, miles away, not to start the competition, but to finish it ..." His name and this sentence became a classic in the history of the Olympic Games.
