  • El-Bakkali Ends Kenyan Dominance Carey Shines
    ARAB TIMES, TUESDAY, AUGUST 3, 2021 16 Liu Yang, of China, performs on the rings during the artistic gymnastics men’s apparatus fi nal at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. (AP) Sports Latest sports scores at — http://sports.arabtimesonline.com INDONESIA UPSET CHINA FOR DOUBLES GOLD; LOPEZ MAKES HISTORY El-Bakkali ends Kenyan dominance Carey shines TOKYO, Aug 2, (AP): Sou- fi ane el-Bakkali of Morocco ended more than 40 years of Kenyan 3,000-meter stee- plechase Olympic domi- nance. El-Bakkali won in 8 minutes, 8.90 seconds on a wet track at the Olympic Stadium in Tokyo. He fi n- ished well clear of Lamecha Girma of Ethiopia, who took the silver. Benjamin Kigen claimed a bronze for Kenya after Ethiopia’s Getnet Wale, who was third heading to the fi nal straight, fell. Wale struggled back to his feet and clung on for fourth. The 25-year-old el-Bakkali was fourth at the last Olympics in Rio de Ja- neiro and on the podium at the last two world championships, but this was his fi rst major title. Kenya had won nine straight Olym- pic golds in the 3,000 steeplechase since 1980. Kenya’s Conseslus Kipruto, the leading star of the steeplechase, didn’t defend his Olympic title in Tokyo after failing to make the Kenyan team at the national trials. Sifan Hassan of the Netherlands started her bid to win three medals at the Tokyo Games by earning gold in the 5,000 meters. Hassan pulled away with about 250 meters to go and cruised to the win in a time of 14 min- utes, 36.79 sec- onds.

Taliban fighters launched rock- ets Saturday at airports in Kanda- har and Herat, two of the coun- try’s largest cities and busiest eco- nomic centers. The attacks dis- rupted commercial travel, though flights in and out of Herat subse- quently resumed. “There was a large blast and the whole room started shaking,” said Massoud Ahmad Pashtun, the chief of Kandahar airport, who was present at the time of the at- tack. He said three rockets landed within seconds of each other and ‘I got lucky’ damaged one of the runways. The attacks mark a potential turning point in the Afghan con- flict.

Tynybekova wasted little time scoring in her final against three-time European champion Anastasija GRIGORJEVA (LAT). The 27-year-old Kyrgyzstani women's wrestler shot a double leg and scored four points early in the match to go up 4-0. She built her lead to 9-0 after two more takedowns and a step out. Needing just one point to finish the match, Tynybekova shot a double leg and lifted Grigorjeva off her feet before bringing her to the mat for a five-point move to put an exclamation point on the match. All five women's wrestling champions crowned Tuesday came from different nations.

Publicado por: Norland Rosendo Solo dos jugadores no japoneses fueron elegidos por los fanáticos de los Halcones de SoftBank en el equipo soñado de la pasada década y uno de ellos es el cubano Alfredo Despaigne, considerado como el mejor bateador designado. Los resultados de la singular encuesta fueron publicados recientemente por el portal nipón Baseball King y la mayoría de los atletas seleccionados aún militan en el club que ha ganado las tres últimas series de Japón de la NPB. Despaigne fichó por los Halcones desde que comenzó esa racha de campeonatos y en dicho lapso ha sido dos veces integrante del equipo ideal de la Liga del Pacífico (2017 y 2019). En su debut con la franquicia fue líder en jonrones (35) y empujadas (103) de su circuito. El toletero nacido en Santiago de Cuba, pero que ha jugado siempre con los Alazanes de Granma en series nacionales, acumula cien jonrones, 189 carreras anotadas y 265 empujadas con los Halcones de SoftBank, elenco que en la pasada década ganó seis veces el título.
