【Foreword】
This year's Olympic Games seem to be particularly lively, France alone has produced a lot of "foreign appearances", but I didn't expect that now the fairness in the Olympics has become a luxury!
In the final of the women's archery team event at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the Chinese team and the Korea team launched a fierce showdown.
The game was divided through overtime, and the Chinese team won for a time, but in the end it was defeated due to the referee's change of judgment, and the gold medal became a silver medal, which directly stunned the audience......
Why did the referee change the verdict? What kind of outstanding performance did our Chinese team have?
【Wonderful Competition】
In the women's archery team gold medal match at this year's Paris Olympics, the Chinese team and the Korea team launched a fierce competition.
The Chinese women's team, consisting of Li Jiaman, Yang Xiaolei and An Qixuan, played against the Korea team led by Lim Si-mi, Nam so-hyun and Jeon Hoon-young.
During the game, both teams showed a very high level of competition, Korea, as a traditional strong team, the game was full of firepower at the beginning, directly in the first two rounds to control the score at 4:0, as long as the Korea team won one more game, then we were "shaved head".
Unexpectedly, our Chinese team caught up and pulled the score of the two sides to a 4:4 draw directly in regular time, which made countless people sweat, and even cheered for the Chinese team.
Such a score pull is undoubtedly exciting, but the game always has to be a winner, so in desperation, the two teams can only enter overtime.
Hello gentlemen, the author's keyboard works overtime until the early hours of the morning every day, and he can only earn dozens of dollars a day, and it is not easy to write, so he added ads to unlock the text, just to make a little more money, the ads are only 5s, and you can read the full text for free after watching, I hope the audience will stop scolding.
In the last game of the playoff, the scores of the two teams were also very tight, but when the Chinese team hit 9 rings with the last arrow, the audience was celebrating for the Chinese team, seeing that the gold medal was about to arrive.
Unexpectedly, after confirmation, the referee changed the Korea team's two pressing lines of 10 rings into an effective score, and the final score was 29-27, and the Korea team won the game by two rings.
In this way, the Korea team defeated the Chinese team with an overall score of 29-27, successfully defended the title, and achieved 10 consecutive championships in the event.
[The reversal of the judgment has caused huge controversy, is the rule really fair?] 】
Many people believe that archery is the dominant event of the Korea team, and since the archery event entered the Olympic Games in 1988, the Korea women's team has completed nine consecutive championships, and this change of judgment has caused the Chinese team to lose the gold medal.
Therefore, the audience at the scene also raised doubts, and even netizens began to write hard to crusade against the Olympic referees, saying that these referees may be relatives of Korea, so they are so biased.
Despite the controversy, the rules of archery at the Olympics are very complex, and in the women's team final at London 2012, if an athlete shoots an arrow that hits the line, it is recorded as a low ring, and the exact number of rings is to be determined.
After a group of arrows is shot, the referee will finalize the number of rings of the arrows that are pressed into the line, if it is determined to be a high number of rings, the arrow will be recorded as a high number of rings in this group.
In the women's team final of this year's Paris Olympics, the Korea team's two pending arrows were judged to be 10 rings, which led to our Chinese team losing and winning the silver medal.
This shows that in the final stage, the arrow that crosses the line can be changed to a higher number of rings, and the specific decision and the number of rings after the change are determined by the referee, which also raises questions about the fairness of the Olympic Games.
Despite this, the Chinese team still won the silver medal in this competition, which is also a major achievement in the Olympic archery event!
The Korea team's victory also continued their dominance in the event, and the Korea team has never let the championship go unnoticed since the women's archery team event was introduced at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.
Although the Chinese team failed to win the championship, it performed well in the game, showing good strength and tenacious fighting spirit.
In addition, the Chinese women's archery team has also made positive adjustments in the preparation process, and even hired Korea coach Kwon Yong-hak as the head coach of the women's team, and the new coaching philosophy and methods have made the players improve significantly.
During the 2024 Archery World Cup, the Chinese women's team defeated Korea twice to win the championship, which undoubtedly boosted the team's confidence.
Especially in the semi-finals, the Chinese team easily defeated the Indonesia team with a big score of 5-1, and defeated the Mexico team in the quarter-finals to successfully advance to the final, which shows that the Chinese team has strong competitiveness in the knockout stage.
【Olympic Archery】
Korea's dominance in archery is very strong, and the 1988 Seoul Olympics included women's team archery in the Olympic program for the first time, which was an important milestone in the history of modern archery.
The Korea team has shown unrivalled dominance and consistency in the event, winning gold medals at nine consecutive Olympic Games since the Korea inception of the event, extending that record to ten at Paris 2024.
Archery as an ancient sport can be traced back to United Kingdom in the 14th century, when it was originally trained by samurai for military needs.
Modern archery returned to the Olympic family at the 20th Olympic Games in 1972, but only in individual events.
It wasn't until the 1988 Seoul Olympics that the women's team archery event was officially added.
The Korea team's success in this event is not only reflected in their nine consecutive Olympic gold medals, but also in the fact that they have maintained a high level of competition and consistency at each Olympic Games.
Korea won a silver medal at Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020, further proving their strength in archery.
But it is undeniable that our Chinese women's team also performed well in archery, although it failed to win the gold medal in the team event at the Olympic Games, but in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Zhang Juanjuan achieved a breakthrough in the individual event, won the gold medal, and won honor for the Chinese team.
【Conclusion】
Although China defeated Mexico in the semi-finals and was forced into the play-off in the final, they lost to Korea by two rings.
Although this defeat is regrettable, it has also accumulated valuable experience for the Chinese team and laid the foundation for the Olympic gold medal in the future.
And the Chinese archery women's team won the silver medal this time, which is also the second Olympic silver medal after 12 years, which has greatly improved the team's morale and confidence.
Despite not winning the title, the experience undoubtedly accumulated valuable lessons for the future.
