#Coach Su Yiming Implores Termination of Criticism of Referees # In response to Su Yiming's scoring controversy in the men's steeplechase final at the Beijing Winter Olympics, coach Yasuhiro Sato said through an open letter that he and Su Yiming understand the difficulty of real-time scoring, thank all referees, and implore the public to stop criticism. This attitude of the coach is very good, and it is also worth listening carefully to the majority of netizens. In all sports where the referee subjectively scores, such mistakes are inevitable. From an objective point of view, it is impossible for the referee to fully observe every detail of the athlete's game, there will certainly be some wonderful or mistakes that have not been observed, and the scoring standards of each referee are different; from a subjective point of view, any referee has his own ideological cognition, will unconsciously have his own impression score and subjectivity, and the scoring will not be completely fair and just. But as long as the referee is not a malicious score, not for other reasons, it should not be widely attacked by public opinion.
Moreover, this Winter Olympics is held in our country, as the host, we should understand the referee, maintain the image of the referee, and maintain the image of the entire Winter Olympics. Netizens in some countries such as South Korea actually want to attack the unfairness of the Current Winter Olympics by frantically attacking the referees, and they want to add chaos to the Beijing Winter Olympics. We must recognize this, do not dance with the wind, and do not fall into the trap of others. Moreover, as a big sports country, China still has this tolerance for referees. It is important to realize that referees are basically fair and impartial, otherwise all sports games would not be necessary. As for the referee's individual mistakes, after all, they are human beings and not gods, and it is normal that people will make mistakes.
