SCANDAL Anzhelika Terliuga - Ivet Goranova Semi-final World Championship 2023 Budapest Kumite -55

[@vitorpucineli8340]

One thing I am absolutely certain of: regardless of the color of the medal, the work that Ms. Terliuga and the team do for Sports Karate, the training they present, the dedication and commitment will not be shaken. Congratulations Ms. Terliuga and the team.

[@karate55]

Thank you 😭 We are very sorry that Anzhelika’s dream was destroyed

[@vitorpucineli8340]

Oh no!!!!! It wasn't destroyed, it was just postponed!!!!@@karate55 The world is unfair. An example of this is what happens against your country. To realize this dream of becoming a champion depended on other uncontrollable factors: referees. Then it gets more difficult. Her part was done with great competence and prestige. She is the world champion for many fans and for everyone she encourages and makes shine with her Karate!!!! Go team Anzhelika!!!!!

[@Massdojo]

I won a protest at the USA Karate national championships this year for a similar error. The match was reset to exactly that point in time. The time lost was less significant. It was a few seconds. Then, I saw a similar mistake made at the Jr. PKF semi-final match. This was only a second or two. I told the coaching staff and a protest was made. The match was brought back to that moment in time. So, this is consistent with what I saw at two other events. It is unfortunate, but it appears to be the correct application of the rules.

[@kieranhejmarov9792]

exactly!!! This was extremly unpleasant situation. But people behind scoreboard tired, refs too, long tournament… Such an error should happen, but stiil it happen and will happen. And the decission of committee was CONSISTENT. Timkeaper made error why should have Ivet defend her lead in original match 20 seconds longer?

[@aad3887]

@@kieranhejmarov9792Ivet had no intention to run for another full minute. The pace of this match wasn’t allowing anyone to “defend a lead”. This was going to be a FIGHT! The days of taking the lead and trying to dance out the time are long gone. The outcome wouldn’t of changed. Maybe anzhelica wins 11-8 because she would’ve had less time to get that last Ippon. Or maybe 11-5 because she scored 7 points in a row, really quickly and maybe ivet doesn’t even get the time to score the Ippon that she scored. Who knows?

[@Dude-etiquette]

You gained the advantage from it so of course you don’t have a problem with it

[@Massdojo]

I didn't gain an "advantage". The match was reset at the time the error occurred according to the rules. This is not an advantage. It's called fixing the error. It's not like they gave my athlete a point or some other unjust benefit. @@Dude-etiquette

Why does this match need a rematch? I don't think this timing error was unfair to Ivet. It is ridiculous to start the rematch from 5-4 . This is completely unfair to Lika.

[@karate55]

This is what happened. We will never understand why 😔

[@sixstringman2862]

I really do not know the standards and procedures of the WKF but If they saw the problem right there in the middle of the fight the obvious thing to do for me should have been calling all the authorities, referees and the coaches of both teams and propouse different solutions RIGHT THERE. There was no need to wait until the fight was over to do something, in that moment, they just could propouse to watch the VR and count how much seconds were lost and discount them from the current clock or simply restart the match from the beggining. Also the bulgarian team show no honor, they saw the problem right there and they waited until the end of the fight to then make a protest just because they lost. That's not what karate is about.

[@karate55]

We are thinking that everything was not athletes fault. And if the rules says that in this situation it must be rematch, so why they didn’t do at least a new fight….

[@sixstringman2862]

​@@karate55 Agreed, also if the rules say that clock mistakes must cause a rematch why did they let current the fight go on? don't WKF refs know their own rules??? There were two big mistakes here, the one with the clock and the one with the desition of what should have been done

[@tisaghchase]

It was an unfortunate situation. I was watching the original match and was confused when the fighters were called back. The ruling of the protest however, is consistent across WKF, PKF, etc. As a coach I tell my athletes, sometimes you may not like or agree with the decisions but you gotta shake it off and focus on your job. In Kumite that is to score and try not to be scored upon. In kata it's to squeeze out as many points as possible. Either way it's to do your best with honour and integrity. Both fighters exhibited exceptional skill. Well done.

[@aad3887]

In my opinion, the WKF could of handled this so differently. Given that there is no rule that states what is actually SUPPOSED to be done in a situation like this they could of chose to do what they want. The decision to restart the match at that point of the match was something that they just made up because nowhere in the rules does it state anything about this. So if they were going to FIND a solution to this mistake that the timekeeper made, I feel there could of been much better solutions. It is important to remember that the time that ran off the clock didn’t really change the flow of the match or the strategy. Anzhelika was still going to be pressuring forward since she was losing. She was still going to have senshu. The outcome of this much I don’t feel would’ve been different. I think that something definitely should’ve been done to rectify the problem. What? Idk! Maybe 14-11 and just add 14 seconds to the clock. 14 seconds because 24 seconds ran off, they adjusted it by 10 seconds, so just continue with the remaining 14. The athlete shouldn’t pay the price for the timekeepers mistake. And if the opposing coach saw that this happened she could’ve stood up and made a bigger deal and pointed out the time to the referees. Lastly, the most mind boggling and unprofessional thing about this is the fact that they only took 10!seconds off. Not only is this the world championships, not only is it the semi finals of the world championships, but it’s live in front of a worldwide audience. The WKF and the referees should’ve had more respect for the athletes involved, as well as the sport of karate, and for the world championships and taken the time to look at the video and see exactly how much time came off (24seconds) and take off that amount of time (24 seconds). Not just make up a random amount of time (10 seconds) and take that off. Sorry that this happened. You have been the best fighter in the world for a long time and deserved this opportunity. I don’t think you should quit or retire this way. You have to take the next one. You have to. Anyway, congrats to you and your team!

[@miriniouinouhaila1749]

Don't worry, my dear, you are first in the eyes of the whole year and the entire Kartika in particular. You are first despite the injustice of the oppressed. Do not worry, a hero, a heroine, and number 1, despite everyone's will. I love to love and I hate to hate ❤️🥰

[@ioanasilviag]

Amazing fight! Huge stress! You’re such a fighter! I respect and admire you❤

[@haett.ich.mal.lieber.getanzt]

The WKF's decision was (legally) wrong. Only in the event that the timer failure had not been noticed until the end of the fight would this deficiency have justified a repeat. However, the judges noticed the error within the bout time and then decided to shorten the remaining bout time by 10 seconds. The fact that the bout time actually should have been shortened by 24 seconds is irrelevant. The referees made their decision within the scope of their jurisdiction for this fight. Such a decision is called a factual decision.

I watched it holding my breath and unfortunately this happens sometimes. I started to train Karate in 1995 and as a person who is still active in tournaments, I can say that rules has been improved a lot. For example there was no VR, feet protection, leg protection and body protection when i started. Anyway you did a great match and it can be good movie. Keep going and dont be discouraged. I wish you all the good luck.

Well done in my book you won that,, I feel sorry for both of you combatants such horrible organization in a World Champ Competition is unacceptable. Organizer have technical issue and no one notice that timer was off neither did the judges on the tami 2 meter from it not very good at their job?! The match should either been called as played out first! Or a full restarted from 0 - 0 that would been fair for both combatant! The amount of failed score counting and clock that stop or don't start during WKF matches, every competition something happen to the scoreboards... incompetence! Keep your spirit high and be proud you did great!

[@rmaturanak]

Totally unfair situation. The clock (the judge) failed but that time was adjusted so it didn´t affect the result. There was no reason for a rematch. Anzhelika clearly won and should have been in the final.

[@mrtocard]

With the comfort of pausing, replaying and slowing down, I see many points offered on both sides where the criteria for scoring were not met (ao blocked a punch with her glove but 1 point was given to aka, aka was in the process of reaping ao, but the 3 points were giving to her for ura mawashi despite the lack of zanshin,...) Referees are humans, they make mistake, especially when athletes are going so fast ! I think it is unfair to point the finger to anyone. Everybody at the championship this day was there because karate is their passion. No one, i believe, was there to screw somebody. Close call, the players were evenly matched. The restart might seem unfair but it seems to have be done according to the regulations. Aka managed to refocus better. Two great athletes anyway, hat tip to Miss Anzhelika and Miss Ivet.

[@jsmacdonald23]

You can see the mistake of the official. They weren’t paying attention at all and someone had to go over and basically wake them up. They deserve to be fired and the WKF needs to seriously examine how they are ruining high-level sport karate. It’s due to their incompetence that karate is no longer an Olympic sport.

[@HenriqueSouza-ue2ye]

This is a total shame. they needed justify this mistake in public after the fight and accept the 11:8, it's a minimum. But i'm hope to those things goes to discusse one day.

[@anthonyfitts2548]

Totally wrong solution. The fight should not be restarted after the result is reached. Figure it out once the timer has realized that the clock didn't start. Once both sides agree to restart the fight, no protests should be allowed. It's to late. The results should have stood after the initial fight was over.

[@AlejandroGonzalez-lk1vk]

This is sad but not unfair since that rule exist and it is a valid protest all around the world, probably they should have consider to modify the rule for the future same as the new rule that the one who scores the higher technique win the match in case of a draw, that is really unfair in the case of an ippon given by mistake and a final draw will give the victory for the participant who get the benefit from a mistake of the judges.

[@kieranhejmarov9792]

Very unhappy situation. But 1. it was not for the first time in karate history and decision was consistent. Timekeeper, kansa a and maybe tatami manager made several mistakes. Time was stopped 24sec but only 10sec reduced. Why should Ivet defend win 14 seconds longer? 1. if this happen to ukraninian (and many others), they would raise an official protest, too 2. Why you blame bulharian side? Everybody seen the mistake, team official (not a coach) wachted video immeidately during match and they filed a protest, that was only valid option they had.

[@timvenom7206]

10 sec cut not good. right solution AKA 5:4 AO AKA Chui 1 for Jogai and 53 sec on the clock. then resume the bout and then the result was 11:8 for AO and CHUI 2 and CHUI 3 AKA for excessive contact and pushing
