At the Tokyo Olympics, although the Chinese delegation won 38 gold medals, ranking second in the gold medal list, in some sports, we actually lost a pity. Like the women's 100m butterfly, Zhang Yufei only lost 0.05 seconds; the women's weightlifting 55 kg class, Liao Qiuyun lost 1 kg; the men's 1000m double kayak, Liu Hao/Zheng Pengfei lost only 0.203 seconds and so on. However, these projects did not get gold medals, which are related to luck and tactics, and there is one project, the outside world generally believes that our gold medal was "black" by the referee.
This gold medal is, of course, the gymnastics men's all-around.
In the final at that time, Xiao Ruoteng was reversed by Japan's Daiki Hashimoto with a disadvantage of 0.4 points, and finally relegated to the second place. After that game, the Chinese media and netizens can be described as a "frying pan" across the board, and everyone is dissatisfied with the referee's decision, believing that Xiao Ruoteng has been pressed to score points, while Hashimoto Dahui is taken care of by the referee.
The most impressive thing is that Hashimoto's vault horse made a major mistake, and his feet were out of bounds, but he still scored 14.7 points. In addition, in the last round of horizontal bar competition, Xiao Ruoteng's completion and landing were obviously better than Hashimoto's Dahui, but Hashimoto scored 14.933 points, while Xiao Ruoteng only scored 14.066 points, which directly led to Xiao Ruoteng losing this all-around gold medal.
Xiao Ruoteng was second in the line, which put Hashimoto Daiki and the referee team of that final into question. So, did the referee really help Daiki Hashimoto at that time? Did Xiao Ruoteng really lose unjustly? There is a professional who has a different view.
Recently, When Li Xiaoshuang, the prince of Chinese gymnastics, talked about the all-around final when he was a guest show, he believed that there was no problem with Hashimoto Dahui beating Xiao Ruoteng to win the championship, and called on everyone to look at the problem more ideally.
Li Xiaoshuang said: "Hashimoto's vaulting horse, although the foot stepped out of bounds, but the referee has deducted 0.5 points from him, and the reason why he can still get 14.7 points is because of his beautiful posture in the air." ”
At the same time, Li Xiaoshuang said bluntly that after all, people are fighting at home, and it is very normal to have an advantage. "At the 2008 Olympics, we had a strong home field advantage, and everyone won the championship when we went up. Yang Wei all-around champion, Xiao Qin kurama champion, Chen Yibing hanging ring champion, Li Xiaopeng parallel bar champion, as long as the person who is on a single event, all take. So the home field definitely has its advantages. We cannot look at one thing one by one. Li Xiaoshuang said.
When the host asked us a little bit, but why didn't the deduction points be the same as theirs, Li Xiaoshuang replied: "What about the posture in the air?" Hook partitions, people's hook partitions are less than ours, our hook partitions are more than others. Although you stood firm, he didn't take a big step, but the middle (aerial skill) score was made up. Is there an error? I don't think so. This is not a subjective question. ”
I have to say that professionals come to comment, the view is different! In the end, we are not strong enough, otherwise even if the other side has home field advantage, what can we do? Moreover, the home field advantage is the same thing, otherwise the bid for the Olympic Games will be meaningless! Perhaps, Xiao Ruoteng did lose a pity, but he only needed to train harder and win back next time!
