  • Sabrina Voinea was the real gymnast robbed here... They deducted 0.1 points for stepping out when she clearly didn't. She should've won Bronze with a score of 13.8.

    I am American and as much as I love the American team, I think the Romanians were robbed. I watched their entire routines in the floor finals and they did an outstanding performance, one of them jumping more than 12 feet high, flawless routines, amazing difficulty. Biles put two feet out of the square, twice! and Chiles had several imbalances and also made mistakes. No one should be granted a medal making those mistakes, when we are asking for perfection. My sister was artistic gymnastics coach in the 90s, so I know quite a lot about this sport because I have been attending countless gymnastic events in my life. When the Romanians did their exercises I was certain they were gonna get a medal, both of them. What happened at the end was not fair.
  • @mariom6449
    You left out the other Romanian who would have finished 3rd. They said she went out of bounds when the video shows clearly that she did not. The crocked judges ignored it when it was obvious.
  • @unknown-lf6zx
    No foul against Jordan as I love her but the Romanians were robbed. Stop blaming Jordan but blame the judges and politics! They all were amazing but felt so bad for them 😢
  • I watched the finals. That was robbery to the highest level. Ana Barbosu, you are my winner. Don't let them get you down. Don't ever give up on your dreams and aspirations, everything takes time.❤❤❤❤❤
  • @hjaidar
    Sabrina Voinea was robbed. She never steped OFB. This is absolutely unfair. Nadia and FIG should do something about it.
  • @rodi4850
    They robbed her 🇷🇴! All videos show she did not step out of the mat
  • @RobertoMurri
    Ana Barbosu!!! You are the Winner in many of our hearts! Keep moving forward, "y nunca te rindas!" Romania 🇷🇴 Mucho Abrazos!
  • @tugasaku2643
    Jordan has done the same routine 3 times (qualification, team final, floor final). Throughout the Olympics she was credited with 5.8, but somehow during the final she got 5.9? On top of that, Sabrina (5th place) was given -0.1 penalty for OOB even though her feet never touch beyond the boundary line. How convenient lol
  • Sabrina Voinea Was the one robbed by the judges, she did not step out. I was worried without the flag women this would happen and I bet counted many scores inaccurately throughout the Olympics.
  • So unfair towards Ana, but also no one is talking about Biles. Her difficulty was there for sure, but twice she stepped way out of the zone and should not have got the silver.
  • @anye76
    The coaches did the right thing fighting for Jordan. I'm gutted for Ana. The fault lies solely on the incompetent judges. None of this should have happened!
  • @ROMANABSOLUT
    My first comment has been removed. I try this one. Our gymnast Ana Bărbosu has been stolen the bronze medal - there is a video record on FB. All the jurors should NEVER participate in international competitions. An US televisions debated the case and it shown CLEARLY thet Ana Barbosu NEVER touched the mat. Her heel was SUSPENDED, in the air when performed in that corner. Olympics should introduce the VAR system as it is used in the soccer games.
  • @Marichka873
    So no Russians to bully but still same..Americans should run they own Olympics, get all medals and leave the world alone
  • My question is if both Romanian didn't deserve a higher score? It seems to me Voinea was given a lower score cause the judges didn't want to leave Biles without medal in her final event
  • This is really not fair, Sabrina and her colleague deserve to win, not usa
  • @FuzzyV
    Moral of the story: Doesn’t matter how good you are, your passport will decide for you!
  • @Marissa-ys4qp
    I'm american and am sick of the USA team tbh. We compete against countries who honestly work harder and longer because of lack of funding. They deserve so much more, yet we swoop in and probably make deals to get our athletes on the board. This was extremely dirty and Romania always deserves better.
  • I think they should have made it a Tie Instead of Breaking Ana’s Heart 💔
