This cuban Taekwondo fighter Angel Matos is certainly not an angel when he kicked the referee in the face after he lost the match. He lost because he took too long during the injury time. The rules and regulations states that the injury time is 1 min and he took longer than that. The referee, just doing his job, disqualified him and he lost the bronze medal.
I watched most of the Taekwondo matches and i must say he is an experienced fighter.He won the gold medal in sydney.In the spur of anger and not controling it, he let loose and let his uninjuried foot do the talking. Disappointing move.
Before we start to look down on him, i realised that we all have this "spur of anger" thing. Be it saying the wrong things or doing hurtful things,as i was about to condemn him i was reminded of the past mistakes i made because of "spur of anger".I am glad that sometimes i have the chance to reverse the effects.
But for angel, he and his coach are banned for life.
