Yang wins China's second judo gold by referee's decision

在１４日晚进行的北京奥运会女子柔道７８公斤级决赛中，中国选手杨秀丽艰难击败古巴选手亚伦妮斯·卡斯蒂略，夺得金牌。

在淘汰赛和半决赛中连续以４个“一本”轻松杀入决赛后，杨秀丽遭遇劲敌亚伦妮斯·卡斯蒂略。比赛进行得相当艰难，５分钟比赛结束后，双方战平，直到加时赛结束，双方都没能取得新的得分。最终场上裁判根据选手表现，裁定杨秀丽获胜。卡斯蒂略获得银牌。

韩国选手郑敬美和法国选手斯特凡妮·波萨马伊分别夺得铜牌。

Chinese judoka Yang Xiuli won the women's 78kg gold by a referee's verdict after a tie in overtime at the Beijing Olympics on Thursday, adding the second judo title to China.

In the five-minute final bout, both Yang and his Cuban rival Yalennis Castillo managed a koka which led to a five-minute golden-score duel.

After a suffocating five-minute overtime, their scores were still unchanged, despite a koka was given to Castillo which was later canceled.
