Thank you Martin! I think the judges 'wanted' Aurelia to win, by all means... I wonder if the reaction of the audience, when Aurelia's score was announced happened, because she didn't get the perfect 10 or because Elena Shoushounova came in second... I guess we will never know.
@@Boban1611 Bitte 😁 I guess Dobre was already the darling of the audience by then, but it's remarkable that Shushunova was the most successful defending champion since Turischeva in '74... (I was absolutely gutted that Omelianchik had finished 5th...) 😭
She would have been a strong contender for the Gold Medal, but she will forgive me (I hope) if she hears me saying... I am so glad Elena Shoushounova became the Olympic Champion in the All Around back in 1988. 💙
ありがとう。今でも私の女神だ❤
She was one of the best gymnasts Romania 🇷🇴 produced in the late-80s. This was when the Romanians started nipping at the heels of the Soviets.
Ecaterina Szabo, Daniela Silivas and Aurelia Dobre were serious 'threats' for girls from the USSR - and they got the medals to prove it. 🥰😎😏
Sure and it was only after the Soviet Union came apart that Romania 🇷🇴 became the No.1 Ranked county in gymnastics in the 1990s to Early 2000s
Inexplicable how Shushunova got a 9.875 for a routine that surpassed this one both in difficulty and execution... 🤷🏼♂️
