Well the tick from 1 sec to 0 was during pause then referee restarts to 1 sec.

They didn't even need that high of a score, it was a fight for Bronze it was a given that them and China got top 2 and it was a fight for Bronze. Unbelieveable.

2, 3 and 4 sooo close.

that was not the referee, also tick from 1 to 0 during break points to human error of the timeguy.

Does that really surprise anyone, especially when we are talking about gymnastics? Won by ~5points.

Wow China won the men's gymnastic team final? The way American media was portraying things during qualifying they made it seem like Chinese gymnastics had fallen off the map.

I heard they didn't do very well during qualifiers. The commentators weren't very optimistic about their chances.

China rolls on and puts in a flawless preformance regardless.

So much dispute going on, double checking gymnastics and fencing. Too much going on at once O.O

actually if you consider the two other attacks -- the clock was already at 1 second then -- resulting in both landing a hit then it definitely has to be over 1 second.

Well lucky for them they pefromed badly in the qualifying stage instead of the finals. The Japanese team (especially uchimura kohei) must be sad.

Would be disappointing to see Japan get silver after all. I don't know anything about gymnastics though.

They had "fallen" compared to 2008. Yang Wei retired and they had no one to fill the void while Japan had Uchimura coming into his prime and just the right time. Add in the new rule where you can only carry 5 members in the team competition, this made it extremely hard for China since their athletes are more specialists than all rounders. Honestly, the big surprise shouldnt be China winning gold, but rather Japan failing so hard.

*EDIT*

Wow, just as i type that, they argue their score and win, bumping GB down to bronze and Ukraine out of a medal.

The referees are starting to use wide arm argumentation now. The german girl looks defeated and the korean girl walks around a bit and then sits down, stands up again etc. German girl arguing angrily and starts taking off the equipment.
Repeat before me
