The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics will be held as scheduled, and related events are also in full swing. However, in the time of great attention, it is inevitable to make some small episodes, and like the previous Olympic Games, the Winter Olympics and other sports events, there will always be some fouls or frauds in the competition process. On the evening of February 7, in the semi-finals of the 1,000-meter short track speed skating at the Winter Olympics, South Korean and Hungarian athletes were cancelled for fouls and yellow cards respectively.
Afterwards, the South Korean team and the Hungarian team filed a complaint with the International Skating Federation, but they were eventually rejected and the penalty was upheld. On February 8, the Korean Olympic Committee refused to comply, declaring it an "unfair punishment" and saying they would take the matter to the International Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). But is the truth of the matter really what the Korean team described? Obviously not, the on-field video has clearly recorded the fouls of the South Korean players.
The video shows South Korea's skater Hwang Dae-hyun overtaking multiple times in the semi-finals and causing "physical contact." After the South Korean team filed a complaint due to dissatisfaction, the referee and the video referee reviewed the matter again, and the final result was to uphold the penalty. Obviously, a violation is a violation, the live video cannot be faked, the referee handles it impartially without favoritism, and the South Korean team also wants to exploit the loophole and continue their past tradition of cheating.
And it is worth mentioning that we have given South Korea a lot of face as the host, because according to the principle of application on the field, it is not allowed to appeal the decision of the (referee) official to disqualify an athlete or not to disqualify an athlete for violating any of the rules of the competition. To put it simply, the Korean team cannot file a complaint about the south Korean players being punished for violating the law, and even if they file a complaint, the relevant personnel and departments can also ignore it.
In other words, our approach is already very human. On the contrary, South Korea itself, obviously aware of its own losses, but also to raise its voice and insult others, is really no grace at all. However, this is not unusual, because in the past sports events, South Korea has always performed like this. I believe that everyone should still be impressed by the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics in South Korea four years ago, in which mainland athletes were crowded out at the home of South Korea.
In just a few days of competition, the mainland short track team was sentenced to 8 violations, and it was basically visible prejudice and wrong judgment. For example, han Tianyu, a mainland player, was mostly in a leading state in the game, and finally successfully crossed the line with the first place in the group, but the referee on the field suddenly jumped out and inexplicably pronounced a foul on Han Tianyu to cancel his results. Another player, Wu Dajing, who is well known to us, also saw the obvious advantage of the South Korean players at home.
In the semi-finals of the 1500 meters, Wu Dajing was knocked off the field by South Korean athletes, and in the short track speed skating men's 1000 meters 1/4 final, Wu Dajing was also judged to be illegal. These things have been controversial, and South Korea's so-called sportsmanship has long been questioned and criticized by the outside world. In other competitions, Korean players are also small movements, if this Winter Olympics is not our live video is enough to give, I am afraid it is reasonable to say.
It is worth mentioning that in the final of the short track speed skating mixed team 2000 meters relay race at the Winter Olympics, the Chinese team won the championship. Wu Dajing, who was previously targeted by the South Korean referee, slipped the last baton in this relay race. The on-site commentary and relevant professionals have given high praise to Wu Dajing and these Chinese athletes, but what is even more impressive is that this gold medal we won deservedly, won clean.
However, it should be noted that South Korea is still stalking its players on the issue of fouls and penalties, and even many South Korean netizens have maliciously swiped screens on social networks to attack mainland player Wu Dajing. In response to this situation, mainland netizens immediately launched a counterattack and set off a wave of "guarding Dajing" on the Internet. As for the harsh words released by the Korean Olympic Committee, they declare that they will go to the International Court of Arbitration for Sport to sue us, and they can let the horse come.
Everyone has already judged the merits, not to mention that the on-site referee and video have confirmed the violations of South Korean player Huang Daxian, and I am afraid that even the audience can distinguish between true and false. Moreover, when the International Skating Federation rejected South Korea's complaint, it issued a statement clearly stating that South Korea's foul was an indisputable fact. If they still want to make a difference in this matter, or if they want to throw dirty water on mainland players, referees and related systems, we will definitely accompany them to the end.
In fact, back in your home country, it is really not easy to compete on clean ice. As for those who want to be opportunistic and undermine the fairness of sports events through fouls, when they come to China's home stadium, they must put away all kinds of careful thoughts, be upright, and play with dignity is the wise move. If you still don't understand, I believe that the athletes of our country do not mind using their strength to teach them a good lesson.
