Really she made me cry 😢 Bravo 🤩 my favourite Athlete sifan Hassan❤.hope you all the best dear.

[@lichtdoos]

Kipchoge and hassan are both legends in a different way. Comparing them is stupid. It’s like messi and ronaldo. Both legends

[@siphumelelemakileni1406]

Exactly

[@AdamShivers-bt2hs]

Unmatched in the modern era that final sprint was supernatural amongst a list of stars she was competing against

[@tessmills111]

I just love this amazing athlete. Sifan is so friendly so humble and just so down to earth. I really must read up about her life. Keep smiling girl and reaching for the stars ✅👊🏻🏃🏻🏃🏻🏃🏻🥇🌟🩷

[@skatingcanuck9837]

I don't know why the one person tweeted Sifan is not a practising muslim. She is and does fast for ramadan. I don't think we'll ever see anyone repeat her records - she is a true warrior.

[@normadesmond6017]

and she won on all three. 2 bronze medals and for the marathon gold. I am dutch and I am so proud!

[@noorhusienabdul5722]

mashallah ,,, we wish good health and long life champion sifhan hassan ,,, mashallah ,,,.

[@samsonotieno365]

Congrats Sifan Hassan.

[@mohcinemabsoute9323]

The best report about Sifan's achievement so far

[@hhaiiaa706]

Amazing athlete 👏 salute 🫡 to the great Hasan . Many more record's to be broken by sifan

[@MikeLawrence-i6r]

Hassan is incredible remember that London marathon where she looked in trouble and was dropped by the leaders but she recovered caught them and won! You can never rule her out

[@margaritastoyanova9253]

Olympics 2021 1 500m 🥉 5 000m 🥇 10 000m🥇 Olympics 2024 5 000m 🥉 10 000m🥉 Marathon - 42 195m🥇 Sifan LEGEND

[@siddharth4482]

Hassan was unbelievable, but it was unnecessary to put eliud down like that. As a marathoner myself, we all know that eliud is the goat. He just got old that’s all. I’m sure even Hassan respects and admires kipchoge. Rupha needs to do better

[@catherineikovwa3401]

Exactly she is just unbelievable kipchoge has broken so many records infact that was going to be his 3rd Gold in olimpics.And Hassan that's her first olimpics marathon Gold where by siffan cant match faith

[@rashidaquil5284]

Congratulation my sister MashaAllah

[@Rosannasfriend]

And don’t compare the two like that I mean he was winning all the time and breaking records, so what happened this year doesn’t change that. Now it is Hassan‘s time to shine.

[@nnenne4]

Yes especially at his age, he's 40 and going for his 5th Olympics

[@kristineodongo9357]

Exactly his heart is willing but his body is refusing

[@sheilaajema6654]

Exactly how could y compare that

[@bourbakis]

It's of bad taste that you feel the need to put down Kipchoge in order to promote Hassan.

[@CJ1947]

Netherland is a very small country, but won 35 Olympic medals. It is a shame to India who couldn't win any gold medals, while the Netherlands won 15 gold medals

[@Wilhelmus84Nassau]

It's about economics etc. Here almost everybody can afford to send their kids to a sports club, who are also very innovative cause there is money. You can see it in the standings.

[@tegarrdaneal6800]

😂😂😂😅

[@pedrovargasarebalo1496]

Qué bien que Sifan Hassan haya recibido su medalla de oro del maratón con su hijab!! Ella es orgullosamente musulmana y no tiene por qué ocultarlo. Como a cualquier otro ser humano se le debe respetar su religión. Felicitaciones a la gran y humilde Sifan Hassan!!!

[@Eagle1503]

She is super congratulations sifan

[@ibrahimali6657]

Sifan is the great athlet i ever seen ❤️👌

[@mussagan]

Go girl, what a legend

[@Genocide2024]

Wow she is amazing.

[@Amtcboy]

Thank you Ms Ramani.

[@giggeezer]

Sifan has six Olympic medals -- three gold, three bronze.

[@BelegCuthali0n]

4:41 she has 6 Olympic medals total (3 Gold and 3 Bronze), not 6 Gold. Still an absolute legend though as the first athlete to join the legendary Emile Zátopek after 72 years in winning medals in the 5k, 10k ánd the marathon in a single Olympic Event.

[@LabyuPilipinas]

i admired this girl sifan hassan.

[@ThuwanFaizer]

Sifan hasan you are speed running machine our congratulations❤❤❤🎉🎉❤😂😂😂

[@njokisophee886]

Excuse us 😮. this is ridiculous.each is a legend of their own.comparing them is lack of sense.both of them have achieved so much in their career for kipchoge to be ridiculed here

[@imranemamdee8789]

Masha Allah Tabarak Allah. Mabrook

[@user-Simon1957]

Hassan is a living legend. She is the best. But Eliud Kipchoge is it for sure. See what the public do to Eliud after Kiptum die. He should be playing a part of that. Crazy!! But it did mental a lot to this GOAT.

[@MusxafagaachooHariiroo]

Amazing record in the world athletics maashaa Allah

[@ismaelibrahem1015]

She is our sister the Greatest.

[@AnesaDaba-xp2pn]

Congratulations my sweet good girl She's From oromiya ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@lingnguyen2623]

KIPCHOGE IS THE GOAT. 2 Olympic Gold Medals . There is nothing left for him to Conquer. Kipchoge is like Alexander the Great an unquenchable desire to conquer till there is nothing left to Conquer.

[@TheBezaleel]

Now, this is the true 'Wonder Woman'.

[@atanlongjuki]

Kudos to Sifan Hassan for winning gold in marathon and accepting the medal while donning the hijab. And to Kipchoge for his illustrious career in athletics.

[@jiregnagaramutarafa8592]

thank you so much Hassan Does What Kipchoge Couldn't

[@माधवीरामदीन]

No!! Why such a comparison?! They are both amazing athletes!

[@rodneyharper2275]

Yeah sifan

[@RyansuBike]

Legend

[@amakovegid]

But why are you comparing them? Eliud explained very well why he couldn't finish the marathon.

[@Amtcboy]

She did several 5k - heats, semi finals and finals (I think), then the 10k. 35hours after she ran the marathon.

[@yayo_mfalme]

Enyewe Ruto must go 🇰🇪✊😎 congratulations sifan

[@moeawale4891]

Where are legendary Kenyan and marathoners in these days? Did the raving Ruto eat all? Something is not right Kenyan sports in the last fews years. Just wondering.

[@kenkamula4461]

You are making a big mistake of comparing Hassan to Eliud Kipchoge .. Compare Hassan with her fellow women athlete .. Eliud is very much far in his professionalism .. . Remove the video and you forward your apology. .

[@sergelu]

A big thank to Alberto Salazar for spending the week end in Paris!

[@marwaqoura7804]

France banned her OWN team from wearing any religious symbols including Crosses or Jewish skullcap as France constitution is secular ,, Sifan Hassan is in team Netherland which did not ban it at all ..Many Muslim athletes competed and won while wearing Hijab including Iranian and Egyptian ones .

[@AFROTRAVELS1]

she didnt forget where she came from. Abyssinia where they protected the prophet mohammed. RESPECT!

[@Ozile793]

Mashaallaha sifan

[@outstandincreations8512]

Must you bring the men down to congratulate the lady? Please put some respect to the legend Eliud Kipchoge

[@jkcareercatalyst]

princess of islam 💗

[@shalomotieno3989]

What does it has to do with islam 🤮

[@nda7000]

Kipchoge is almost forty and past his prime . That was a weird comparison. I love Sifan though The Kipchoge reference was unnecessary

[@catherineikovwa3401]

Idont know what you mean siffan Hassan that was her first olimpic marathon Gold and kipchoge was going for the 3rd Olympics Gold so please don't compare the two

[@augustjiawan]

Sifan Hassan the Lady from Space WEERGALOOS!’ 🤯🥇 Song by Surinam Dj Lotharbass:kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGrXnZ2ZorKXbdE

[@richardkihu]

I suspect doping. The western world are practising double standards on doping. Even you said 2 days are not enough to recover your energy, after running 1 long distant race in such a most competitive event - the olimpics - yet she did 2 long distance races winning bronze and eventually crowned it all with a marathon gold ; to be honest that is humanly impossible. Cheptegei only did one 10k race breaking the olimpic record, but couldn't recover his energy for onother race. He was too exhausted. Faith Kipyegon did 5K where she won silver. She testified that she was too exhausted to run her special 1500m. On her own account she said it took a miracle that she won

[@carloscolon198]

I guess that the Dutch Right Movement aren’t saying much about immigrants now ‼️‼️‼️

[@saroshsiddiq]

[@missfofana8960]

Why comparing two athlete's ? What is their agenda here? Always here to divide for no reason

[@Saitov_athlete]

you claim that Sifan Hassan did what Kipchoge couldn't? i have nothing against sifan hassan, on the contrary i am very happy for her victory in the marathon and my congratulations to her! but to say that she did what kipchoge couldn't is stupid, you better compare men's and women's disciplines from the beginning, there is crazy competition among men at all distances and let's not forget that the distances where men run are more interesting to watch because it is more spectacular, so i want to say that it is not so easy to participate in men's disciplines at all distances and take medals, yes at one time Emil Zatopek did it, but nowadays everything is different new training programs and workouts and completely different speeds so i don't want to say that it is impossible but we'll see i will only be glad if among men there appears someone who will take gold medals at 3-4 distances.

[@thameemashrafali5339]

She burst the Islamphobe and the Hate by wearing a Hijab. Islam Glorifies Women.

[@ivanleon6164]

ohhh really? by not letting them be free?

[@redeyexxx1841]

How?? Isn't it a choice? Wear it only if you want to.

[@ronaldderooij1774]

Since when are women allowed to even drive in Saudi Arabia? Are they allowed to be married and conduct their own business? Are men? I rest my case.

[@moeawale4891]

Especialy for the notorious islamophobic and racist french. In your face and eat your hearts y'all.

[@avishkarandika4473]

the thumbnail is bulshit if you want to compare them then put them in the same race

[@njokisophee886]

What kipchoge couldn't?????! for goodness sake.you can also jump in and do what he couldn't.mai Maya!

[@edgerdeuce]

Utterly vapid attempt at dismantling Kipchoge's legacy... Congrats to Hassan, she's incredible... Poor journalism....

[@truthandjusticeareonlyword63]

Sorry 3 Olympics gold not 6, please correct
