that point in line was nasty

[neverenough1984]

touche # 7 by Ota is just amazing... a lot of his touches were made over Joppich attack. I guess, for what I see here, Joppich is better at parry/riposte than attacking, Ota realized it and let Joppich go forward, then counterattacked him; he defeated him in his own game. (touche # 1 by Ota is a good example)

@sandt2295 no L8

[flickeringlamppost]

@neverenough1984 yea, if u actively watch joppich, you can see that he is very good at making his opponent miss &then counterattack

[luvinwafflez]

u dont see ota yell as much as other fencers, his reaction to his 5th touch suprised me a bit

[michwng]

@neverenough1984 like touche 3

[dragopie]

@slayerming1 the ref said the call twice and for some reason the scorekeeper pressed the button twice

[slayerming1]

how did they mess up the score in the beginning?

Fail

[sandt2295]

Sorry, this was the final right?

[gotdamnyu]

[EnduringDusk]
