Former gymnastics star Nadia Comăneci has published video evidence showing that Sabrina Voinea was unfairly deducted points in the floor final at the Olympic Games.
Nadia has pointed out that Sabrina Voinea did not step on the mat, as the judges claimed when penalizing her, thus depriving her of the chance to win the bronze medal.
"I don't see the heel touching the mat! Do you?", Nadia Comăneci's message reads.
It is worth mentioning that Sabrina Voinea Maneca made serious accusations at the Olympic Games after American gymnast Jordan Chiles contested her score in the floor exercise, leading the judges to change it and move her to 3rd place.
Sabrina Voinea claims she was unfairly penalized for stepping outside the acrobatic line with her heel.
The athlete states that the photo used by the judges was from the first day of the competition, not from Monday. Therefore, Voinea alleges that the judges conspired against her to favor the American gymnast.
Voinea filed a complaint, but it was rejected. In contrast, the American's complaint was accepted, resulting in Ana Bărbosu losing the 3rd place. Sabrina Voinea finished in 5th place.
