    Tigist ur such an inspiration. i will run marathon one day. ur so modest, composed and polite not only as an athlete but also as a woman. u speaking ur own language amharic on such prestigious stage speaks volumes about ur person. እንወድሻለን ትዕግስት የልባችንን ህያው ወርቅ አንቺ ነው የወሰድሺው ❤❤❤

    Hassen was trying to pass Tigist and take the left corner but Tigist narrowed the space and finally pushed each other. Tigist didn't expect Sifan was coming from her left shoulder. It looks like 50/50 push. The mistake Tigist Asefa had made was waiting Sifan Hassen until the final minute. Sifan Hassen's Marathon strategy is following the best ones closely until the end and finally use her sprinting speed to win the Gold. Tigist Asefa should have separated the pack early.

    Tigist you are a world class both in character and performance!
  • @babotekl
    The translator is not picking well. He missed to respond accurately about the formal appeal request by the Ethiopian authorities!!!...
  • @eliaszelelew
    Tigist assefa you put your all efforts to win the title Unfortunately you pushed each other but despite this incidence you tried to control the race and continued up to finish the marathon this is incredible performance You are such inspirational for others We Ethiopians proud of you. 👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤
  • I really appreciate Tigist for the way she expresses her feelings. Of course, Sifan is an amazing athlete, and she may be the only athlete to have taken three medals in one Olympics [in the 5000, 10,000, and marathon]. Tigist, you also did your best, and that is also an amazing thing. Congratulations to both of you. For the translator, at most, you were missing the questions raised and the athlete's answers to translate what they were raising accordingly.

    For all the people that think hassan did something wrong: the protest of assafa was denied . She tried to cut of hassan who did hold her line . Than you get Pushed. You do that in cycling or formula 1 , you get pushed also . If there is no space you cannot cut someone off .
  • @Viva-Ethio
