Indonesia added this weird event to win a medal but after all it helped Saudis winning a silver

they were awarding one bronze until 2006. (before that we had the competition in round robin. and no need for a separate bronze medal match) btw. I watched a clash between them but in Handball. and unblievably both teams were damn serious like they are playing for a gold medal (that was for finishing 10th or 11th) and when India won by a goal after scoring a very late winner. they were celebrating like hell. and Pakis were angry like they lost a big thing

I don't know if you are making a joke or you are really asking but there is no bronze medal match in Kabaddi for a weird reason they give joint bronze medals. which I can't understand in a team sport. they do the same at the World Cup too. not just an AG thing

the first line is mandatory to cross. if attacker goes back to his own court without crossing that . he is out and 1 point for the defending team oh no. they can tackle him at any time. sometimes they just don't want to take that risk

wow that's quite a long list. I think last time in Incheon only Squash had no TV coverage. but at least good to know it. better than searching desperately for something that doesn't even exist

so I should stop cursing the Iranian channels we have less info about events in Palembang. the coverage in Jakarta is apparently much better but it means also no coverage for Canoeing that was one of my favorite sports in the Games.

I watched Pencak Silat for the first time still have hard time to understand the rules , I wonder which one is more stupid. Jujitsu (cat fighting) or Pencak silat ?!

so we finished the Rowing competition with 3 silver and 1 bronze. all of them won by the girls ! our men's team failed miserably. I made a prediction here earlier so far the only sport failed to win that number of gold medal is Rowing .I was expecting 1 or 2 golds here , but actually the main gold medal hope was Nazanin Malaei and we didn't expect China to enter a rower in this category. with a limit number of 11 events max for each country to enter, they usually don't enter in single sculls event but they surprised us by entering a very good rower who beat Malaei for the gold. I think Lwt Quadruple sculls was the most possible gold without China in the competition. but they lost it narrowly to Vietnam.

and we have Jujitsu on Channel 6, the most stupidest sport ever ! it's like two baby cats playing with each other

I never saw anything from Rowing. I wonder if there is even TV coverage for that

I make it short how to score in Kabaddi of course if you touch as many players of the defending team and makes it back to your own court. if you go 2 raids without scoring or giving up points, the 3rd raid you should score otherwise you are out and 1 point for the defending team. if the defending team catch the attacking player that's 1 point but if the defending team does it with 3 or less players that's super tackle and gives them 2 points. when all 7 players are out for a team. that's Luna and 2 extra points. there is a "bonus" line (the 2nd line) if you touch behind that line while the defending team has 6 or 7 players. that's also a point. bonus doesn't exist when the opposite team has less than 6 players.

i had an emergency situation today and had to leave my place and missed all of evening sessions. I just could follow the results. Kabaddi team beating India and Alipour's gold medal was the highlight of the day for Iran. Alipour was a bit lucky that the Chinese guy had a false start. made things easier for the World Record holder. I hope we win more medals in this sport but that was best chance which we took it. our Sabre team once against lost to Korea. no shame in that this Korean team is just great. but we heard a very surprising sad news that Mojtaba Abedini announced retirement today ! people still will remember him with his heroic 4th place in Rio. but he had some bad results recently but I hope he changes his mind we had another final in taekwondo ( which was the last event of today I could watch LIVE) Bakhshi and his coach were very angry about the officiating and specially those phantom punch points for Lee. to be honest I still think even without those points Lee could win the match he is just too good but at the time Bakhshi had the momentum and 4pts lead. they gave 4 back to back points for punch to Lee and changed the whole thing. and we will win a medal in Pencak Silat probably two since we have a QF vs Uzbekistan tomorrow still what made the headlines here was none of these things. that was Nemati's story. and also our pathetic football team's elimination in hand of South Korea. nobody liked this team after losing intentionally to Myanmar !

And gold for Alipour, glad he didn't fail when it mattered the most, good day but would be great only if Keikha could win that damn bronze

Looks like we beat India in kabaddi !!!

Oh no 4th place for Keikha, damn I hate 4th place

no punches are counted by the refs. because the whole punch idea is different that kicking. any kind of kick to the body is valid for a point but punch should be straight from a specific distance and to the chest. Lee Dae-hoon's punches never landed clearly on Bakhshi. but whenever he threw his punch they gave him a point.

Lee Dae-hoon is a great fighter he never lost to Iranians but today he was saved by some phantom punch points when he was down by 4. punch should be clear and straight and from exact distance to be scored. none of his punch points were valid. but after all great day for youngster Bakhshi, he beat two World and Olympics medalists before losing to Lee in the final. end of the taekwondo competition with 7 medals (4 in men's kyorugi) not a great result but at least better than my not-so-optimistic prediction

Yes I wrote about that in next posts you probably didn't read yet. she was told to go for lunch and when she found out the truth that was too late and she came 30 seconds late for the competition.

this Nemati story completely overshadowed everything here, and made all the headlines. it's not like we missed a medal chance but losing like this is unbelievable and as I said Nemati is somehow famous here. sometimes I think a bunch of random guys from the streets can handle these things better than these stupid officials.

update on Nemati's situation. that wasn't organizers fault but Iranian stupid officials fault ! after Round of 32 match they told her to go for lunch since her next match will be in 2 hours ! and when she was leaving the area another Iranian archer came and told her to come back which was late because she couldn't get into the place in time on a wheelchair.

looks like the south korean guy lost half of his 2 minutes lead. (if I read the graphics correctly)

I think South Korean guy will win the gold most probably. terrible strategy for the Iranian team. their strategy is simply doing nothing and sitting behind the Kazakhs !

Ganjkhanloo from Iran plus guys from Uzbekistan and Hong Kong. but they are not trying to catch the Korean guy.

They will always find a way to blame the organizers, I'm sure I will hear about the reason very soon. Nemati because of her life story is somehow famous in Iran and news about her is somehow considered as important.

obviously you don't get injured in Archery. so how come someone can win a match but then 5 minutes later withdraw from the next round ! I'm waiting for Iranian officials claiming she got robbed of a medal by Indonesia (and they won't mention Korea=elimination was next for her )
