I predict gold for Paulino.

Last moments of Pérec as Olympic record holder.

Paulino in 48.15

Kenya sweeping all short track medals at the next Olympics would be a smaller fluke than what Italy did here. Realistically even 1 bronze would have been an amazing result for them and now they already stole 4 golds. Very bad news for the EU, considering that Italy pays close to 200k for a gold and obviously isn’t able to come up with the money on its own.

Miller-Uibo takes it. Misses out on Perec's OR by 0,11

 

Paulino 49,20 NR with silver.

Felix getting another medal after looking sort of sizzled out at the trials, wow.

Allyson Felix 10th medal  She won a medal in Athens 2004, if you could believe it. Amazing!

I might have misunderstood them but to me it felt like the BBC commentators are a bit skeptical of Paulino’s improvement.
