Getting a clean medal has always been the biggest pursuit of athletes. However, some athletes are really unscrupulous in order to get a medal. In the women's 1000m final of the winter olympics short track speed skating, South Korea's short track team's Choi Min-jin won a silver medal, but to be fair, her medal was a bit unclean. In the final sprint stage, in order to win the gold medal, she directly reached out and pulled the first-place Dutch player Shultin. After the end of the game, many netizens also had a question: Cui Minjing foul did not blow the penalty? Her silver medal should be canceled.
So, will Choi Min-jin really be fouled for the first silver medal won by helping South Korea? Will it be canceled?
To be sure, Cui Minjing did foul last night. But after crossing the finish line, she did not affect Shulting's performance, that is, Shultin won the first place. As a result, the referee did not intervene in the game. If the result is that Shu Erting won the second place and Cui Minjing won the first place because of this pulling action, then her gold medal must be deprived.
Judging from the slow motion, Cui Minjing's foul this time is a bit blatant. In the final impact stage, since there were only 3 players left, the three directly monopolized the medals. So even if it's a foul, it's just a change between medals. Cui Minjing is probably also very familiar with the rules, so after catching up with Shu Erting, she did not hesitate to win the gold medal with fouls. Fortunately, Schultin did not give her a chance and crossed the finish line first!
Although Cui Minjing's foul did not affect the outcome, her action was clearly filmed. Let your reputation suffer.
For Cui Minjing, losing the 1,000-meter gold medal in two consecutive Winter Olympics is indeed more tragic. Wang Meng said in her commentary that from the perspective of strength alone, her personal ability is very strong, the strongest among all the players. But fate seemed to be joking with her, and at the last Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, she fell prey to infighting among the South Korean short track team. This Winter Olympics, despite unscrupulous means, still missed the gold medal. This is probably the reason for her pain.
