@@sandra5077 No but what they said about a boring routine is 100% true. Compared to Kexin's and Tweddle's routines', Mustafinas was ridiculously boring.
Matheus Borges Agreed. I loved the ub style that Aliya and Vika made popular, but I kind of got sick of it, especially during the 2016 olympics when everyone was pretty much doing the same routine. Those two we’re really the only ones who could pull it off well.
If her routine is so easy to copy, why hasn't anyone been able to do it as well as she did? People may copy but no one has performed that routine like Aliya did.
@@lf9286i would agree with he kexin, no one can do her routine, it’s very unique and difficult in EVERY SINGLE code of points. but for beth… no, almost every ub specialist does a combination of mustafina and beth routines… and beth routine here is the same d value as mustafina in 22-24 code. he kexin’a routine is the most difficult and unique routine maybe of all time( especially when she used to connect 1 1/2 to dismount) but with difficulty comes higher chances of deductions, the results here were 100% right, mustafina didn’t have the most difficult routine, but she executes the best by far and mustafina used to play with the code, she was capable of increasing difficult, we saw her training stalder 1 1/2, ricna…
Man I love Mustafina so much, such a strong woman!! And her gymnastics as well as Komova's are just the most beautiful thing ever, I wish artistic gymnastics took artistry more into account, Komova and Mustafina queens of the sport (It's so sad those Olympics just didn't work for Komova)
As exciting as this final was, I so badly want to know what the results would have been if Beth hadn’t taken all those steps back, Komova didn’t hit the low bar, and Gabby didn’t have that mistake on the high bar. Their routines, when hit, were ALL worthy of medals.
It depends on how the judges deduct Beth's landing, actually. Without her error, Vika would've scored 16.166 ahead of Aliya, but were Beth's extra steps counted as two small ones or just one big one? If Beth was deducted .2 for the steps, Vika would've won. If it's .3, Beth did. So probably it would go: 1. Beth - 16.216 2. Vika - 16.166 3. Aliya - 16.133 or 1. Vika - 16.166 2. Aliya - 16.133 3. Beth - 16.116 Regarding Gabby... even if she hits her routine, I think at most she'd score about 15.8. High enough for fifth but not ahead of Kexin and th above three.
Gabby's routine is always robotic and awkward to me, she can do the difficult moves extremely well, but very low artistry. Mustafina's routine is always silky smooth, very expressive, powerful and elegant all at the same time.
Although Vika was great, even without the foot hit or big step she still shouldn’t have gotten gold, Aliya was superior in execution. I also think Aliya should outscore Beth without her steps. 1. Aliya 2. Beth 3. Viktoria.
@@dellawahyuni6349 i think vika also hit her feet on the low bar twice. i'll come back and edit this comment with a link/timestamp, i'm not sure if the judges noticed it the first time it happened because it wasn't as bad as the one on her giant pre-dismount, but if she *was* deducted for it then holy hell imagine her score had she not hit the low bar twice
He Kexin is probably my favorite UB worker (it’s hard because I really love all three of them for different reasons), but it really looked like she was going to miss the bar on her first release combo. I feel like Beth probably should have gotten the bronze in spite of the dismount, but I’m happy all 3 of them medaled.
Each of these medalists deserved the medals. As a British person, I can tell you we were all rooting for Beth to win anything, and as a long time fan, I was so happy when she was getting such a strong reaction from the crowd. But also as a fan of Aliya Mustafina, I was so so proud and happy for her at these Olympics after coming back from her injury. She's a queen and I would love to see her next year try for gold a third time.
Я из Москвы ! Очень уважаю Элизабет , как гимнастку и достойную соперницу !!! Элизабет до золота чуть чуть не хватило чистоты ! Рада и за Алию ( естественно болела за нее ), как и любой британец конечно болел за свою гимнастку !!! Но Элизабет всегда вызывала большой интерес , очень сильная, стабильная гимнастка !
Beth could have won if she had stuck her dismount. Komova could have won if she didn't hit her leg on the low bar. But Aliya was literal perfection in this routine and did the routine of her life (and also in floor finals)!
The problem with Komova was that typical, abusive Russian style of coaching. They can't pace gymnasts properly, they're burned out as juniors and there are no more good replacements as it was happening in Soviet Union. Komova literally had the stuff to go all the wa: all around, bars and beam. But there was and is, and most likely will be not enough psychological support for gymnasts, they're constantly body shamed and pushed for unnecessary elements just to show off their dominance(which is non-existent at this point).
tweddle should've gotten a higher score that combo from the lb to hb was amazing T.T but then again aliya slayed her routine kexin's routine was jam packed with difficulty and i'm happy she got the honor she deserves
They have different styles.. Tweddle relies on big releases and less pirouettes, while Aliya relying on connecting pirouettes to combos from low bar to high bar. Both are super difficult. Tweddle's may just be a little "flashier". Aliya deserved the gold for sure, but I think Tweddle should've taken the Silver over Kexin.
Tiara Ko i know beth had alot more to her routine it was fast and everything was perfect even the dismount judges need to not take off points from a damn. Stumble
OMG, this was so close!! I'm so happy for Aliya, she really deserved that gold. Although I did think that Beth should have taken 4th, and Yao Jinnan taken bronze. Anyways, really exciting!!!!
Lmfaoooo why are people saying tweddle should’ve gotten a higher score??? If anything she was WAY over scored-miss handstands plus huge leg separations plus 2 massive steps on the landing all should’ve totaled to at LEAST 1.2 in deductions. The fact she medaled at all is hilarious
I liked that Mustafina, a daughter of Tatar, dated a man, got pregnant, then got married, then gave birth, got divorced, and now is coming back. You go girl!
Tina Burton Yeah, her father is Tatar, so most likely Muslim. She got pregnant before marriage, so she most likely was forced to marry. Obviously many marriages like this one don’t last long. But at least she is an independent woman and can give the life she wants to her baby.
@@ybur6760 her marrying after getting pregnant is usually just a russian thing not just Muslim. Russians are pretty conservative in that aspect and get married really young and if they get pregnant then that just seals the deal. I'm actually surprised she got divorced but she's really independent so
YBUR it's funny how when her dad was asked why they married and she took a break he said 'Aliya is stubborn, she wanted a baby'. I laughed my head off! I adore Aliya but let's not pretend the baby was planned. I say this as someone who accidentally got pregnant at 21 and again at 22 so no judgement. Just made me laugh how he tried to cover it. He ain't fooling no one.
This final totally changed the style of bars, with connections, exciting releases, half turns! Don't paks to kip cast on the low bar look old hat these days? Are you a top bar worker if you can't connect a Pak to a VL/Maloney? Has anyone ever connected a Pak to a Komova?
@@brandonaldaymachuse6669 Anna Padurariu from Canada showed a pak connected directly into a Komova II, but it was just in training and has never competed it
Can someone explain to a non-gymnast why Mustafina’s routine looks so much easier than the others? Obviously her routine is probably just as hard as the others in reality, but it appears half as hard. Why?
Part of the reason it seems easy is because it's so short - and it's so short because she connects a ton of elements together, which adds to her difficulty. And the part is that she starts almost every skill with a difficult entry like a stalder (straddling her legs) or an inbar (piking her legs in between her arms) - she gets more points for doing that than she would by doing those same skills straight of a giant or something. But don't forget, she's just so smooth that she makes the hard stuff look easy - usually when something "looks difficult" it's because the gymnast is struggling with it and probably incurring deductions along the way.
Aliya Mustafina gets most of her difficultly by connecting one skill right after the other. She does handstands before all releases and before her dismount. She gets a connection value every time she does that which adds to her difficulty score. Also, she does things like stalders (straddling her legs around her arms), toe ons (touching your toes on the bar), and inbars (piking her legs between her arms) which add to her difficulty, If you look at Tweddle and Kexin’s routines, don’t use these handstands. Tweddle’s difficulty is mostly from connecting difficult release moves and high to low bar connections. Kexin’s is almost all about releases too. She does some handstands but doesn’t do any of the inbar or stalder moves that Aliya does. On top of this, Aliya has very smooth and natural swing, which makes everything look effortless.
She connects element after element which isn't as flashy but is extremely difficult. Beth, for example, relies on big releases to get her difficulty score up. Mustafina focuses on connections and perfect form, but don't be deceived, hers is an extremely hard routine and she nailed it with perfect form throughout.
Aliya's style was Aliya's style, and I wish the world's other elite bar workers didn't try their own versions of it. Bring back routines like He Kexin's! Bring back Giengers!
@@lf9286 Nina and Suni have a similar style as Beth. But no one performs the Aliya version as cleanly and exquisitely as Aliya, which is why she's the 2 time Olympic champion. Tokyo bars final was a mess, every single finalist made a significant mistake, even Nina had bad execution on some skills. Queen Aliya is the best bars worker because she never makes a mistake in competition.
She took 3 big steps (0.3) and showed lack of balance on landing, small steps, wrong landing posture, etc. The minor errors also cost her a lot, she couldn't have won unless she absolutely stuck the dismount like Aliya, which she never ever did. Only Vika had stuck her Fab dismount in AA final, she could've produced a better score than Aliya. But even she hadn't crossed 16.133 in AA
It really bugs me when NBC commentators say "it might come down to the dismount." There are places all over the routine where the judges are deducting and the dismount is not even the tip of the iceberg in terms of tenths. It may have been decades ago that it WAS more of a big deal, not sure, someone feel free to tell me, but in these routines, judges are deducting all over the routines. If Mustafina had taken a step, she would have still won. The only steps that may have been more consequential were Beth's because she took multiple large steps on her dismount. I love these routines though. All of them!
So refreshing to see all the medalists with their feet pointed! Never really been a fan of Tweddle but man! Those releases and that execution! 😍😍😍 if only she would have sticked 😭 nevertheless an Olympic medal at home isn’t too bad ❤️
4:44 Mustafina por una fracción de segundo voltea con Komova esperando una buena reacción ante su triunfo pero no !!! Y se va a festejar con sus entrenadores. Bella Mustafina !!! ❤
Kexin He joked that whether Biles withdrew from the team final because of relapse of ADHD when she commented on the live broadcast of the competition. She was just so rude and not aware of how ignorant she was🤮🤮🤮
Ok so i'm a complete noob, and I do love Aliya, but why was her routine scored higher than the other two that, too me, looked more challenging with the transitions between the two bars? Even with the not perfect landings, the difference seems huge to me in the scores.
Better execution I think, and I agree with you, Mustafina's routine looks way easier than the other two but I think it's kind of the same difficulty. It looks easy but it's difficult
Aliya is so graceful and smooth that she makes it looks easy when it's not, she had an extremely difficult routine but pulls it off so beautifully that it looks effortless. She gets a big difficulty score because she has excellent connections where she does one skill right after the other. Beth Tweddle's difficulty score mostly comes from her release moves which look flashier than Aliya's but have the same difficulty.
@@chooseyourpoison5105 thanks for your explanation. I don't think that Aliya's routine is easy though! And it does look gorgeous. But it feels shorter, is that just an impression? And it makes total sense that the connections would have the same level as some of the flashier moves, but it looks like Beth has a lot of them too (though the execution is not as smooth for sure). Anyway, I'm really just trying to understand, not saying the scores aren't right or something.
@@Ganychan Her routine is a bit shorter because of the connections, she goes straight from one skill into another. I should also point out that all three of these routines were very close, scoring 16.133, 15.933 and 15.915, that's how tight the finish was. If Tweddle had not taken the big step on landing she would have got silver. That's the thing with the Olympics - they're the world's best so EVERYBODY is mindblowingly good, so it often comes down to things like a step or a missed toe point.
@@TheMarieflyy IT WAS EASIER! That connection is played out. But because she was the first to start doing it it was highly credited, but in reality was weak compared to everyone elses routine. Why do you think everyone started doing Aliyas connection and it took much longer for more people to follow in Tweddles and He's combo footsteps, BECAUSE ALIYAS WAS EASIER! Played out!
This final was the best final in history

Only Vika had stuck her Fab dismount in AA final, she could've produced a better score than Aliya. But even she hadn't crossed 16.133 in AA
NO DOUBT, SHE IS A SUPER EXTRAORDINARY WORLD CLASS GYMNAST NO ONE PLAYER......
When al says how long does that last for aliya's lead I'm like um... 4 years
8 years actually
@@prajaktapendse7310 well I guess you could say that
Hopefully 12
Let's hope she continues to reign in 2020!! Mustafina for Gold! ❤️❤️
@Daniel Rocha True! American commentators always downplay other gymnasts as if they're the only ones who deserve any glory.
Amazing bars routine 😭😍😍
Алия шикарна!Учитывая как попадали в Токио. ..
I adore Musty. She's my fave. But I'm so happy for Beth!
The best UB final ever !!!
It really bugs me when NBC commentators say "it might come down to the dismount." There are places all over the routine where the judges are deducting and the dismount is not even the tip of the iceberg in terms of tenths. It may have been decades ago that it WAS more of a big deal, not sure, someone feel free to tell me, but in these routines, judges are deducting all over the routines. If Mustafina had taken a step, she would have still won. The only steps that may have been more consequential were Beth's because she took multiple large steps on her dismount. I love these routines though. All of them!
Beth was amazing
So refreshing to see all the medalists with their feet pointed! Never really been a fan of Tweddle but man! Those releases and that execution! 😍😍😍 if only she would have sticked 😭 nevertheless an Olympic medal at home isn’t too bad ❤️
Fantastic Aliya 👍😍
Really admire each one of them and ❤ Aliya
Бравооо, Алия❤️💚
Queen Mustafina 😍😌👑👏❤
Queen Mustafina 👑 💙🇷🇺 Aliya did the most perfect routine 🤩🥇👏🏻
И тут выходит Алия.... ✌✌✌✌✌
Bruh Beth’s dismount cost her like 4 tenths I wish she fought harder on that 😭😭
2 big steps and 3 small steps - 9 tenths, but you’re only allowed to take 8 tenths on a landing. The judges were biased. Yao Jinnan deserved bronze.
Great Mustafina, great sport family...
I think Tweddle should've had the highest start value...
There's no such thing as a start value...
Beth, Aliya, Vika (and maybe Yao) all got 7.0 SV and He Kexin got 7.1 SV
@@flfm6736 i think yao had a 6.8
Nicole maybe you are right. I'm just not sure about her SV
@@Trenton.D you're wrong as all get out. SMH
My three favorite bar workers
4:44 Mustafina por una fracción de segundo voltea con Komova esperando una buena reacción ante su triunfo pero no !!! Y se va a festejar con sus entrenadores.
Bella Mustafina !!! ❤
Best!Лучшая!❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Aliya fue más limpia en la ejecución. Las 3 hicieron un maravilloso trabajo😘😘😘
Man, Beth is brilliant
He is the best!!!
Какая умничка Алия!
Still watch gymnastics because of (QUEEN) ALIYA MUSTAFINA
Mesmerizing 😍
Elizabeth T. is really great, Aliya Mustafina is gold medal too!!
Felt bad for Komova. Mustafina is not my favorite, but her execution was near flawless, she delivered.
Mustafina wanted to hug Komova then quickly changed her mind xD
Mustafina is undisputed QUEEN
I am huge fan of Aliya Mustafina. I watched her win as a 11 year old kid.
Commentator said " Russia Rejoices how long does that last ? " It lasted for 8 years 😂
Kexin He joked that whether Biles withdrew from the team final because of relapse of ADHD when she commented on the live broadcast of the competition.
She was just so rude and not aware of how ignorant she was🤮🤮🤮
ALIYA IS QUEEN OF GYMNAST........
How i will talk to aliya because someone want to learn gymnastics from Aliya please help if you do
Queen Aliya!!
La mas hermosa de todas las gimnastas del mundo
How did the judges find more than .8 from Aliya’s routine? Can any people with judging experience explain to me????
Ms He should be the gold! Unlucky
I used to thing He Kexin’s name was pronounced HEE-KEX-IN
Omg same!!
Красавица!
Aliya te amo
Aliya Mustafina, the new flying Tatar
👌 awesome
All three deserved the gold.
gooood ,😍 aliya mutafina i like u mutafina
Ok so i'm a complete noob, and I do love Aliya, but why was her routine scored higher than the other two that, too me, looked more challenging with the transitions between the two bars? Even with the not perfect landings, the difference seems huge to me in the scores.
Better execution I think, and I agree with you, Mustafina's routine looks way easier than the other two but I think it's kind of the same difficulty. It looks easy but it's difficult
Aliya is so graceful and smooth that she makes it looks easy when it's not, she had an extremely difficult routine but pulls it off so beautifully that it looks effortless. She gets a big difficulty score because she has excellent connections where she does one skill right after the other. Beth Tweddle's difficulty score mostly comes from her release moves which look flashier than Aliya's but have the same difficulty.
@@chooseyourpoison5105 thanks for your explanation. I don't think that Aliya's routine is easy though! And it does look gorgeous. But it feels shorter, is that just an impression? And it makes total sense that the connections would have the same level as some of the flashier moves, but it looks like Beth has a lot of them too (though the execution is not as smooth for sure). Anyway, I'm really just trying to understand, not saying the scores aren't right or something.
@@Ganychan Her routine is a bit shorter because of the connections, she goes straight from one skill into another. I should also point out that all three of these routines were very close, scoring 16.133, 15.933 and 15.915, that's how tight the finish was. If Tweddle had not taken the big step on landing she would have got silver. That's the thing with the Olympics - they're the world's best so EVERYBODY is mindblowingly good, so it often comes down to things like a step or a missed toe point.
@@TheMarieflyy IT WAS EASIER! That connection is played out. But because she was the first to start doing it it was highly credited, but in reality was weak compared to everyone elses routine. Why do you think everyone started doing Aliyas connection and it took much longer for more people to follow in Tweddles and He's combo footsteps, BECAUSE ALIYAS WAS EASIER! Played out!
Это супер!!!!!!
Briga de gente grande.
He kexin got the disadvantage by being positioning first one to perform.
Didn't matter. She had errors and rightfully got the silver.
That doesn’t matter she was nowhere near as clean as Aliya
Thats not a disadvantage. She actualy performed first at Beijing and she won anyway.
Tweddle is the best
