Taekwondo WT World Championships 2023

[phelps 7,797]

and just another bitter loss at the quarterfinal stage for an Italian fighter  (this time it was Teodoro Del Vecchio in the men's -54kg class)

it's the 4th time in this championship (and we only got a single medal, even if it's a Gold in an Olympic class, which is the most important thing).

Alasan Ann   vs.  Marc-André Bergeron 

 

R1  1-9

R2  3-3

R3  3-1

 

How did Bergeron not win the match after Round 2 was also awarded to him and how can the match end 2-2 in favour of Ann?

the second round was won by  by a score of 4-3 (at the beginning they didn't put the final gam-jeong on the scoreboard and the Gambian team had to request a video challege, which was successful and changed the outcome of that round).

 

then,  won the 3rd round 3-0 (or 3-1, if they really counted the final gam-jeong with no more time on the clock).

 

in any case,  won the match 2 rounds to 1 (that 2-2 is clearly a mistake).

It was a terrible terrible tournament with a little happy ending. Nahid Kiani became the first Iranian woman to win a gold medal in the World Championship of an Olympic sport. very interesting because few months ago she was expelled from the national team

 

still 9 out of our 15 athletes lost in their first matches (actually I should say 8. one of those defeats was intentional ) which is a terrible terrible result. I know we have lots of talented athletes but there is something wrong with our TKD since 2015 but nobody still knows what.
