LINK (http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2008-08/23/content_9667934.htm)Matos, gold medalist in the men's 80kg class in Sydney, took a lead of 3-2 in the second round when he got injured. He then sat on the mat to receive medical treatment, which should be limited within one minute according to the competition rules. The Swedish judge Chakir Chelbat believed that time was up and hence decided that Matos' opponent, Arman Chilmanov from Kazakhstan, won. Matos' coach rushed onto the mat to argue with the judge and then hit Chelbat with his fist, while the rash athlete attacked the Swede with an axe kick on the head. The chaos lasted for a few seconds until other referees went over to separate the trio. People watching the match stood up in astonishment. Half an hour later, the announcement came that both of the two received a permanent exclusion from international competitions organized by the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF). |
