The referee’s decision is controversial as Hur Mi-mi (21, Gyeongbuk Sports Council) of the women’s 57kg judo class, who competed in the 2024 Paris Olympics, lost the final unfortunately.
Humimi played extra time against world No. 1 Krista Deguchi of Canada in the final match of the tournament at the Chandemars Stadium in Paris on the 29th (local time).
Hur Mi-mi was the first to enter the attack after the extra time began. Hur Mi-mi tried to fill in her right shoulder, but when it didn’t work, she immediately got up and tried to fill in the other side. 토토사이트
Deguchi, who was on the defensive, moved to the back and avoided the attack from Heo Mi. The referee’s judgment was Heo Mi-mi’s “disguised attack.” A disguised attack means pretending to be true even though there is no actual intention of attacking. Generally, when a player who is in a disadvantageous situation makes a defensive attack to avoid the situation, the player gives a map of disguised attack.
Korean women’s judo team coach Kim Mi-jeong expressed regret over the decision. “Although we may have different views, it’s not that (Mimi) tried to use a camouflage attack,” Kim said. “It’s not that she didn’t get up after sitting down, but she kept on getting up and attacking.” “It wasn’t that Canadian players attacked her. I think Europe played a role in the decision.”
Deguchi, who won the foul, also made a significant statement after the ceremony. When asked what he thought about the guidance decision, he replied, “It’s a difficult question.” “I have nothing to say about the last guidance because I don’t remember exactly what the situation was,” he said. “I think there is something we need to change for better guidance.”
Internet users expressed their anger at Heo’s “distinct defeat.” Right after the match, many online communities and social networking services posted messages such as “stolen gold medal,” “Give me a gold medal,” “I can’t watch it because it’s like this every time of the Olympics,” and “I can’t get things done because I’m so frustrated.”
