On October 15, Li Xiaoshuang, the former prince of gymnastics, was interviewed by the media recently, during which he talked about the controversial "Xiao Ruoteng all-around competition loss incident" in the Tokyo Olympic Games.
In the gymnastics all-around competition at the Tokyo Olympic Games, in the final round of vaulting, Japanese famous Daiki Hashimoto did not stand still at the end of the action, and one foot stepped directly on the outside of the mat, which seemed to the outside world to be a major mistake and basically missed the gold medal.
Look at the Chinese player Xiao Ruoteng, he accumulated points in the previous action in the first place, as long as the last round of vaulting horse normal play can win the championship, in the end his movements and standing are done well, in this regard, many viewers outside the world think that Xiao Ruoteng is definitely the champion, he himself even raised his arms and celebrated in advance.
And the final result we all know that In the final vaulting event, Hashimoto Daihui not only did not drag his feet, but also had a high score of 14.7, and finally won the championship with a total score of 88.465 against Xiao Ruoteng, who had a total score of 88.065.
This incident quickly caused a discussion on the whole network, many Chinese people for Xiao Ruoteng, and even think that the referee has a shady scene, now after more than 2 months, gymnastics prince Li Xiaoshuang boldly discussed a number of controversial points, first of all, Hashimoto Dahui in the last jump one foot out of bounds can still get a high score.
Li Xiaoshuang said: "Hashimoto Dahui's aerial movements are more difficult, and the degree of completion is good, which is very plus, and its landing foot is out of bounds but the person does not fall, these are clear deductions, In the end, it is reasonable to deduct 0.5 points, and then look at Xiao Ruoteng of our country, his aerial movement difficulty is relatively low, although the overall play is stable, but it is not brilliant enough, the referee scores no problem, and then there is the home advantage of others, somewhat helpful, just like our Beijing Olympic home, also won the championship in many gymnastics events"
In addition, Some of Xiao Ruoteng's last performances made Li Xiaoshuang very dissatisfied, he directly accused: "Xiao Ruoteng thought he was a champion after doing the vaulting action, raised his arms in advance to celebrate, forgot to salute the referee, was deducted 0.3 points, this is contempt for the referee, in the Olympic Games such a low-level mistake, unbelievable, which reflects the lack of discipline of his team, at that time foreign media said that this is too crazy"
Li Xiaoshuang also shelled the on-field performance of many gymnasts, many of whom were like visiting the vegetable market, and liked to pose various expressions and poses to the camera, as if to say: "Hello everyone, do you know me?" This was a serious "self-awareness" in our time, which was absolutely not allowed, you didn't actually have to deliberately show anything, the camera was always shooting you, and every action could be captured.
Some domestic media have also been criticized by Li Xiaoshuang, "After Xiao Ruoteng lost the championship, many media have accused Japanese players and referees, so that many people think that our gold medal has been "blacked out", such a thinking is terrible, ignoring our own ability problems, in fact, we should admit that the overall level of our gymnastics does need to be improved, there are not many absolute dominance athletes, we must focus on how to improve their own ability, make beautiful difficult moves, let the referee have nothing to say, Had to give a high score"
Many netizens listened to Li Xiaoshuang's remarks and expressed their support, "Professionals are professional, sharp evaluations, to the point, every sentence is a big truth", what do you think about this?
