World Taekwondo Championship 2011 female 49kg


This is one of the more interesting semi-final matches and it features World Champion cum Olympic gold medalist. Her style of play in this tournament has changed slightly. She is famous for her slamming kick which she had used it to score many points at the last Olympic. This time round, instead of slamming kick she used more pushing or thrust kicks probably to achieve the same effect in terms of score but in a different manner as more are aware of her slamming kick.

Now she just have to thrust it out and at the same use it to defend herself, catch the right timing and make the oppponent off guard. Watch out for the last few seconds kick she performed and that won her the final placing. Though now a touch is adequate to score some points which has pros and cons to that but for a sport, it is fine. It is still an exciting moment for the entire match.

The men's match, on the contrary seems to be less exciting again this round on the whole. The team match was fine though which will be posted later. But that is not included as one of the main events it seems.
