The first gold medal in short track speed skating at the Beijing Winter Olympics belonged to China, and in the mixed team relay competition, Wu Dajing and Ren Ziwei led the Chinese team to win the championship. After the match, some South Korean media raised questions, believing that in the semi-finals, the Chinese team relied on controversial penalties to advance to the final. In fact, the South Korean team was unexpectedly out of the first round, which made the Korean media a little angry. In addition, the protagonist's words should be the most convincing, according to the well-known reporter Zhou Chao reported that the American players took the initiative to admit fouls, and China's first gold medal can be described as deserved.
Obviously, China is the favorite to win the mixed team relay, because the Chinese team has performed well this season, and the strength of several main players is average, and the cooperation is also very tacit. Short track powerhouse South Korea should be our main opponent, the latter is also very eager to win this gold medal, and unexpectedly, South Korea was unexpectedly out of the quarter-finals, no collision, no fouls, and the Koreans themselves fell off the track.
In the subsequent semi-finals, the Chinese team encountered some challenges, and the opponents in the same group played well, especially the American team was not optimistic before the game, but the momentum was fierce. The Chinese team failed to finish in the top two of the group and looked like it was going to miss the final, but the on-site referee reviewed the video of the game for 10 minutes and finally ruled that the U.S. and Russian Olympic Committee representatives had fouled the team, and the Chinese team was sentenced to the Final of Group A.
There were also some collisions in the final, but the Chinese team took the lead, Wu Dajing held the advantage, and the Chinese team won the first gold. The chinese team's winning process is full of twists and turns, and the Korean media obviously cannot accept such a situation, so they question the referee's judgment, and even think that the unsatisfactory venue caused the Korean athletes to fall, and there was a sense of unreasonable trouble from beginning to end.
Short track speed skating competitions inherently have some controversies and variables, and ultimately the decision of the referee must be respected. In addition, the attitude of the parties is also very important, according to the well-known journalist Zhou Chao, the American player admitted that he had fouled. BINEY Maame said: "My teammate crossed the blue line, so that the Chinese team missed the handover baton. Ryan, who fouled him, said he knew the referee had wrongly judged him to enter the track, and the American was very calm, thinking that the race was like this and that anything could happen.
The American players voluntarily admitted to the foul, the Gold Medal of the Chinese team is deserved, and the South Korean media should have nothing to say, right? The last Winter Olympics were held in South Korea, many people know what happened at that time, the Korean team still relies on strength on the field to speak!
