Oh well, these past 4 days was nightmare but at least a reason to be happy. I was hoping for a gold from her but bronze is still good. I lost hope when she was down by 5pts against Thailand in repechage but Taekwondo is such an unpredictable sport.

 

I would like to see Asemani on podium alongside her. that was interesting to see two Iranian girls on the same podium but well she wasn't lucky.

Well, no surprises in today's women final, Joens vs Calvo, probably a "classic" in this sport. On the other hand, I'm very happy for the Iranian and Egyptian competitors winning bronze medals, showing that in this sport you must give everything you have until the last round.

 

In men's event, there's no excuse for Gutierrez being defeated in his first combat; he was supremely arrogant and thought he had the pass to fight the Spaniard, so I'm glad that kind of athlete gets what he deserves. On another subject, I'm very impressed by the guy from Jordan, he has been performing excellent so I'll be rooting for him to be on top of the podium.

Beigi eating up Coulibaly and now destroying Khodakhbashi :yikes:

 

I know how especially MHSN has said that this guy is insanely strong, but it's interesting for me to actually see it happen live now. 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!
