This Tokyo Olympics, really magical,
On the evening of July 28, China's Xiao Ruoteng performed eye-catchingly in the men's gymnastics individual all-around final, landing steadily.
Even Ye Zhennan, deputy leader of the gymnastics team, said in an interview with the People's Daily, "Today, our two team members, Xiao Ruoteng and Sun Wei, played very well. ”
In contrast, Japan's Daiki Hashimoto, in the vaulting event, not only came out of the line when he landed, but also stepped directly out of the mat with one foot.
But the strange thing is that the referee let Hashimoto Daiki lead in the final score, and Xiao Ruoteng could only regret losing the gold medal.
Afterwards, netizens questioned the match, and even Hashimoto Daiki and the INS of the International Gymnastics Federation were scolded.
To this end, the International Gymnastics Federation had to give scoring details on the platform.
Still, the match is still controversial, but viewers who have seen the Olympics may know that this is not the first time.
In the boxing men's flyweight (48-52 kg) quarter-of-the-eighth competition, China's Hu Jianguan was repeatedly attacked by Japan's Ryoaki Tanaka, and after the match, the referee ruled that Tanaka won.
Ryo Tanaka was also ridiculed by netizens to win "ugly"
As the Olympic arena of global focus, it is both an arena and a competition for fame and fortune.
Therefore, many competitions are also full of controversy under the squeeze of human nature, and today, Pigo will talk to you about those "bad" games that happened at the Olympic Games.
01, competitors are congratulated, but the gold medal is given to each other, then I go?
At the 1960 Olympic Games in Rome, two athletes were identified as favourites to win the championship in the men's 100m freestyle final.
One is the first person from the United States who broke the 100-meter freestyle record of an American college, Relais Larson;
The other was Australian john DeWitt, who won the gold medal at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Stockholm.
In this game, DeWitt was third and Larson was fourth.
The two face the finish line, you chase me, and in the final moments, Larson seems to be slightly ahead of DeWitt touching the wall.
At the time, almost everyone thought Larsson had won the championship, even Dwight thought so, and after congratulating Larson, he climbed out of the pool in frustration.
But, curiously, the referee did not immediately declare Larson a winner, and the six referees disagreed.
In the end, referee Hans Kosdemer voted for DeWitt and gave the official timing data.
However, the American team did not accept this statement and protested, but in the end, the matter was suppressed by the International Amateur Swimming Federation.
This competition has also become one of the most controversial competitions in the history of Olympic swimming.
02, the score is far more than the competitors, but lose gold, bye-bye, do not play!
At the 1988 Seoul Olympics, in the final of a light to middleweight boxing competition, the two sides were played against legendary Roy Jones Jr. from the United States and Park Hee-hong from South Korea.
Originally, there was no suspense in this game.
Since 1986, he has been recognized as the most talented boxer by all boxing commentators in the world.
At its peak, it set WBC, WBA, IBF, IBO, NBA, WBF, IBA seven gold belts in one, and won the WBA heavyweight boxing champion by defeating Ruiz across levels.
In the eyes of many people, he is a legend.
But in the final at the Seoul Olympics, he hit his opponent 86 times, far more than Park Hee-hong struck himself 32 times.
However, as a result, the referee actually declared the latter the winning side, leaving only the shocked expression on the face of Jones, who was 19 years old at the time.
On the podium, Park Hee-hong's face was full of shame, and he did not feel honored at all because he won the competition.
The result of this match also caused an uproar, and everyone felt that the gold medal should be given to Roy Jones Jr.
But surprisingly, the referee team never changed the verdict, which became the "most incredible" game in the history of the Olympic Games.
After this match, Roy Jones Jr. turned professional boxer and has not played in the Olympics since.
03、Excitement! Gold medal, lost and here it comes!
There should not be many athletes who dare to play heartbeat at the Olympics, and Ross Rebagliatti is definitely one of them.
At the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics, Skier Ross Rebagliatti from Canada took the lead in winning the gold medal in the big slalom event of snowboarding by an absolute advantage.
You know, that was the first time snowboarding was included in the Olympic program.
Ross Rebagliatti won the first gold medal, which was of great significance.
However, he did not pass the post-match drug test and tested positive for THC.
The IOC immediately stripped him of his gold medal qualification.
A few days later, however, the reversal came again, and the IOC once again awarded him the gold medal.
The reason was that marijuana was not on the list of banned drugs at the time, and the amount of cannabis in Rebagliatti's body was found to be only slightly exceeding the limit during the test.
His explanation for this is that he has sucked up too much second-hand smoke.
In any case, despite the controversy of the match, the ultimate ownership of the gold medal is Rebagliatti.
Later, Rebagliatti retired from the army and opened a medical marijuana business, vigorously advocating the benefits of medical marijuana.
04, the former Soviet Union team: I want you to play, I didn't expect you to be so desperate!
In 1980, the Lake Placid Winter Olympics ushered in the "final showdown" of the ice hockey program between the United States and the former Soviet Union.
You know, at that time, the former Soviet Union team had been dominating this project for many years, and in almost the 16 years before that, it had won 47 wins and won gold medals in all the competitions in this event.
At that time, the competition was the American NHL team, and the strength was relatively amateur.
Before the Olympics, it had lost 0:6 to the Soviet Union.
What's more interesting is that the American NHL team is a group of young college graduates, who are simply not comparable to the former Soviet union team in terms of strength and experience.
However, it was in this situation that when the game proceeded to the 81st minute, the American team actually took the lead with a one-goal advantage.
Even the narrator at the time said, "Do you believe in miracles?" Yes, you should believe it! ”
In the end, the group of young American amateurs defeated the former Soviet Union team by a score of 4:3 and defeated Finland in the final.
Although the situation is like this, many fans of ice hockey do not agree, believing that the former Soviet Union team deliberately lost this game.
Because at that time, the United States and the Soviet Union were in a state of cold war, and the former Soviet Union hoped to attract the United States to Moscow to participate in the Summer Games through this game.
It is reported that in this game, the coach of the former Soviet Union also deliberately let his best goalkeeper sit on the cold bench.
But embarrassingly, not only did the soviet team lose the game, but the United States did not go to Moscow that summer.
This historical event was eventually adapted into a movie, "Miracle on Ice".
05, I said that someone blocked my way, do you actually believe it?
At the 10th Winter Olympics in Mexico City in 1968, Austrian Carlo Schranz represented his country for the third time.
The 1.75-meter-tall athlete has performed well in the Winter Olympics before.
In this competition, the ski event he participated in stopped when it was close to the 21st gate of the slalom race.
The reason was that he said he saw "a black shadow" and crossed the track in front of him.
Through the feedback, he regained the chance to be allowed to glide again, and defeated French legend Jean Claude Killy, and even broke the record.
Unfortunately, the mysterious black shadow he said was not confirmed, and he was even disqualified.
Therefore, there are also a lot of controversies in this game.
But it is undeniable that he is still a well-known Austrian skier, and in 2008, the Austrian authorities issued two commemorative stamps of Austrian Olympic stars, one of which was him.
06, say good regular competition, hit people, engage in medicine, what is the situation?
At the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, the penultimate day of the athletics competition, hundreds of journalists around the world were waiting for one person, Mary Decker, an American women's middle-distance running champion who dominates the current world championships in the 1500m and 3000m events.
At that time, South African female player Zora Buddy had just become a British citizen.
In the 3,000m race, two famous players with high hopes were entangled.
After 1700 meters, Buddy led the way, and Decker made two collisions in the back, and after no success, she launched a third charge, and finally Wast jumped by Bud and flashed past.
Decker fell to the ground and was finally helped out of the arena by her husband.
Afterwards, Bud was taunted by the American audience and eventually left the scene dismal with a seventh-place finish.
In fact, after the game, Bud took the initiative to apologize to Decker, but it was not accepted.
A few years later, Decker was found to have used contraband during the game and dealt with in a ban, and the AMERICAN media was silent about it.
Correspondingly, that match became the last controversial showdown in the history of Olympic athletics.
07、 You bribe the referee? This has happened a lot, and I want to !!!
At the 2002 Salt Lake Winter Olympics, in the figure skating pairs skating final, although it was Canada's Jamie Saler and David Pellettier who performed a little better.
But the final winners were still Elena Berezhnaya and Anton Siharulidze from Russia.
Of course, at the scene, the audience's eyes are snow bright.
Subsequently, the Delegation of Canada protested against such a result and accused the referee of improper decisions and suspected manipulation of scores.
And, three days later, the French judge Marie Rennes Le googne also admitted that it was because of pressure from the Russian side to turn the score into part of the deal.
Upon learning of this, the ISU also proposed to the IOC that Jamie Saler and David Pelletier be awarded gold medals.
As a result, this Winter Olympics figure skating pair skating event appeared double gold medal.
08, the mystery case of 49 years, the American team claimed to have been "humiliated and humiliated"
In 1972, in the context of the us-Soviet hegemony and the small background of terrorist attacks outside the stadium, the men's basketball team at the Munich Olympic Games ushered in the final.
It was in this game that the former Soviet Men's Basketball Team "counterattacked" to defeat the American Men's Basketball Dream Team, which had previously maintained 63 full victories.
Since 1936, the American basketball team has never tasted defeat.
However, in this game, the former Soviet Union team became more and more fierce, almost the whole lead, until the first 10 seconds of the game, the score was still maintained at 49:48, ahead of the United States team.
But by the time it was 3 seconds before the final, the U.S. suffered a foul, making two free throws and two shots, but leading the score.
And this is where the historic moment comes.
The U.S. team completed the free throw, the former Soviet Union team failed in the last 3 seconds of attack, the final whistle sounded, the American team began to celebrate, but then the referee made a change of judgment, the game back to the table for 3 seconds, giving the former Soviet Union another chance to attack, and then the former Soviet Union team a long pass, the basket hit the board hit, completed the kill.
It turned out that when the U.S. team performed the second free throw, the former Soviet Union team requested a timeout, which was a delicate point in time.
It is this point in time that extends two controversial views.
On the one hand, the referee and the U.S. team believed that the live ball state when executing the penalty could not be called a suspension, so the referee ignored the request of the former Soviet union team.
But on the other hand, the former Soviet union team believes that it has called a timeout, and the referee has no reason not to give.
So as soon as the final whistle sounded, the former Soviet Union team immediately protested, but unfortunately, the SECRETARy General of FIBA, who was sitting in the technical seat at the time, gave three fingers, which meant that the former Soviet Union team was suspended for 3 seconds, and the referee also immediately announced that it was back to the table for 3 seconds.
After the game, William Jones explained that he wanted to achieve "procedural justice", and he did not believe that 3 seconds could really stage a kill, but he did not expect that the miracle would really be staged.
After the game, the American team also protested to the referee and refused to receive the silver medal, which became a mystery.
Now, 49 years later, it's hard to comment on who was right and who was wrong at the time, and everyone has their own opinions, but at the time, it did become a shocking scandal, and the impact was quite large.
This controversial event was later adapted into a Russian film, "Kill Munich".
Of course, the controversial competitions on the Olympic field are much more than that.
Among them, there are many incredible experiences.
In the final analysis, it is because the aura of the Olympic champion is filled with too much fame and fortune, and people can't help but abandon the bottom line to pursue.
In fact, the original intention of holding the Olympic Games is to inherit the Olympic spirit, especially in the current epidemic situation, which has an inspiring effect.
It should be the embodiment of all positive energy, not the way for some people to gain fame and fortune.
Hopefully, such a controversial competition will be less in the future, and if there is, it will only be because of technical and judgmental problems, rather than the choice of mixed interests.
After all, in our hearts, the Olympics is still a pure land!!!
