in the fourth competitive day of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro with boric Russia won 2 medals.

Judo

One of the main events for Russian athletes and fans was the victory of a compatriot judoka Khasan Khalmurzaev. He became h champion of the XXXI Olympic Games in the weight category up to 81 kg. In the final bout of the Olympic tournament, 22-year-old Khalmurzaev defeated Travis Stevens from America.

According to Khasan Khalmurzaev, in achieving victory he was helped by the attitude of the generalnational team managerRussia in judo, Olympic champion Ezio Gamba. He reassured Russian athletes by his own example. reassured the Russians by his own example.

Gamba told us: "N don’t think about how it will be, go out and do what we were working on, and we’ll tell you about tactics - We went out and fought," he saidKhasana Khalmurzaev.

Gymnastics

The Russian women's gymnastics team won a silver medal in the team competition at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The main struggle ensued between the US and Russian teams. According to many fans, it was clearly visible that the judges sympathized with the American gymnasts. All marks were overestimated for athletes from the USA, and exactly the opposite, all marks were underestimated for Russian gymnasts.

Thanks to the judges, after each type and passage of shells, the American gymnasts went ahead in terms of the number of points, while the Russian ones lagged behind. Although they performed at a very high level, and sometimes just excellent.

Because of this situation, until the very end of the competition, it was not clear whether our gymnasts would even be among the winners of the Olympiad in this type of competition. According to the estimates in each event, the Russian team was in 4-5 places until the very last - the jump. And only after summing up the final results, it turned out that the women's national gymnastics team of Russia took second place and won silver medals.

According to the results of the competition, our gymnasts scored 176.688 points. Members of the national women's gymnastics team were: Aliya Mustafina, Angelina Melnikova, Maria Paseka, Daria Spiridonova and Seda Tutkhalyan.

The first place and gold medals were won by gymnasts from the USA with a score of 184.897 points, while the team from China won bronze medals (176.003 points).

This silver medal was the 12th in the asset of the Russian Olympic team at the XXXI Games-2016.

Table of medals of the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro

At the 2016 Olympics, a total of 306 sets of medals are played in 28 sports. Points are awarded to teams according to the following principle: gold - 3 points, silver - 2 points, bronze - 1 point.

Judoka Khasan Khalmurzaev the day before, on August 9, brought the third gold medal to the Russian team at the Olympics. The 22-year-old athlete performs in the weight category up to 81 kg.

The scoring table of the 2016 Olympics shows that Russia is now in fifth place in the ranking, previously the country was in seventh place. Russian medals in Rio at the moment - 3 gold, 6 silver and 3 bronze medals.

Kommersant writes that the second gold medal won for Russia in judo by 22-year-old debutant Khasan Khalmurzaev was from the expected category.

Khalmurzaev Khasan previously won the June European Championship in Kazan, in the final he effortlessly dealt with the famous world champion from Georgia Avtandil Chrikishvili.

“Weight up to 81 kg is one of the most competitive weights in Russia, so the coaches decided until the last moment who would still go to Rio: me or the bronze medalist of the London Games Ivan Nifontov,” Khasan Khalmurzaev recalls. “I felt that the choice fall on me, but before the official announcement of the composition on June 30, he forbade himself to rejoice. Already here, Ezio Gamba said that I should not think that the Olympic tournament is somehow special. “Are you ready? So don’t worry, come out and fight the way you can.”

Khasan Khalmurzaev, whose nationality is of interest to many today, comes from Nazran, Ingushetia.

In the final, the Russian athlete fought with Travis Stevens, an American judo veteran who became fifth in London. The American initially sought to squeeze the maximum out of his crown fight on the ground. But it soon became obvious that this number would not work for him, after which Khalmurzaev very competently disposed of the situation that had arisen: taking the upper hold, he finished off Travis Stevens, securing a clear victory for himself.

“Everything worked out, and there is no limit to joy. My and all the people involved in this victory - specialists and relatives who prepared and believed in me, - the Olympic champion told reporters. - The Olympic tournament cannot be compared with ordinary tournaments. After all, everyone was preparing for it aimingly, and first of all psychologically. And with the American, by the way, he is a good and very strong guy, I already fought and beat him in January. So I knew roughly what to expect from him.”

Judoka Khalmurzaev brought Russia the third gold of the Olympics in Rio. The first gold medal was won on the first day of the competition by Beslan Mudranov, judo, the third gold medal by Yana Egoryan, fencing.

How many medals did Russia win in Rio

Olympics 2016, medal count

Now in first place is the US team (nine gold medals). On the second - the Chinese team (eight gold medals), representatives of Hungary close the top three (four gold medals).

On the fourth day of the competition, the table of medals of the 2016 Olympics was replenished for Russia with two medals. The first was brought by Hasan Khalmurzaev, the second by the women's gymnastics team. The girls were able to repeat the success of the men's team and took silver.

The 2016 Olympics, whose medals are considered by fans around the world, however, disappointed the Russians the day before. Swimming was disappointing. Not to say that our swimmers were favorites in any of the types of the program, but they could take at least one medal from the four sets played out. And if in swimming in the 200m freestyle for women and in the 200m butterfly for men, the Russians did not even make it to the final, then in the men's freestyle relay race, where Danila Izotov, Alexander Krasnykh, Nikita Lobintsev and Mikhail Dovgalyuk competed, a ghostly hope remained until the very end. end, writes Gazeta ru.

The Russian four made it to the final with the third time and seriously claimed bronze in the course of the decisive swim, but could not stand the pace and finished the relay in fifth place. The Americans became the champions, the British team pulled out the silver in the very end, the bronze went to the Japanese.

The real hero of the day was the great swimmer Michael Phelps, who earned two more gold medals for victories in the 200-meter butterfly and in the relay and became a 21-time Olympic champion.

Diary of the 2016 Olympics, medal standings, will be updated today. On the fifth day of the competition, 20 sets of awards will be drawn.

The second place and the silver medal of the Olympics were won by the Ukrainian Pavel Timoshchenko (1472 points).

The Mexican Ismael Marcelo Hernandez Uskanga (1468) closed the top three.

There are four days left until the end of the Olympic Games, 89 more sets of awards in 23 sports have not been played. Most of the competitions are long gone, only memories and numbers in the medal table remain from them. Fans are left wondering what final form it will take? Who will win a team victory, who will fail against the backdrop of previous Olympics, and who will show progress? Which countries will become world leaders in summer sports in the next four years?

We will consider each of the countries that are currently in the top ten, and give a forecast for its final performance, comparing at the same time with the current performance with the results of past Olympics.

USA

The Americans finished the 12th medal day in first place in the standings. They have 30 gold medals, 32 silver and 30 bronze. Already now we can say with confidence that they again won the overall medal standings.

Their handicap in relation to the UK and China is already huge, so there are still many competitions in the program, where the “stars and stripes” are almost guaranteed gold.

These are both basketball tournaments, the men's shot throw and decathlon, the women's 400m hurdles and the women's 4x400m relay. Also in Rio, the US women's volleyball and water polo teams look very good. Wrestlers Jordan Burrows (up to 74 kg) and Adeline Gray (up to 75 kg) are also seriously counting on gold, so in the end the American team will have at least 40 awards of the highest standard.

In addition, the Americans have a good chance of winning in five more types of athletics (men's 400m hurdles and 4x400m relay, women's 4x100m relay and pole vault and high jump), two boxers remain undefeated (up to 56 kg for men and up to 75 kg for women), there is hope for three golds in cycling (in women's mountain biking and in BMX).

Competitor Kent Farrington could win gold in the individual event, highly seeded taekwondo Jackie Galloway at 67kg, triathletes Gwen Jorgensen and Sarah True have excellent prospects, freestyle wrestler Kyle Snyder is listed as one of the favorites at 97kg.

By all accounts, it turns out that the Americans are able to surpass the London figures and win more than 46 gold medals. This will be their third result in history and the best since the 1984 home Olympics, which was boycotted by Soviet athletes. It makes no sense to add that the States will not give the first place to anyone.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": 47 gold medals and first place.

United Kingdom

The Brits are currently second in the medal table with 19 golds, 19 silvers and 11 bronzes. And these figures have already become the third in the history of the country, second only to two home Olympics - 1908 and 2012.

In the medal table, British athletes are moving forward - they were fourth in Beijing, third in London and are now second only to the United States. However, it would still be more realistic to assume that they again closed the top three, as in previous Games.

"Guaranteed" gold for the islanders can only be in the women's sailing class 470. That is, the British will receive a beautiful figure of 20 gold awards. At the same time, there are a number of disciplines in which the chances of success are very high.

Runner Mo Farah has already won the 10,000m race, but at half the distance, he will have to endure serious pressure from the Ethiopians. There is a modest chance for another track and field gold in the women's 4x400m relay if the Americans suddenly drop their baton. Hockey players reached the finals of the women's tournament, but they will face the invincible Dutch women there.

British fans do not lose hope for gold in the triathlon - both the men's team and the women's team are strong. The just-started taekwondo tournament can improve the team's position in the standings, as in three categories at once (men up to 80 kg and women up to 57 kg and over 67 kg) the British are seeded in the top five. Two categories in boxing remain working (men's over 91 kg and women's up to 75 kg). Finally, if luck is not yet tired of smiling at the subjects of Elizabeth II, then they can show themselves in rowing in a double kayak at a distance of 200 m and in the women's modern pentathlon.

To those 20 gold medals that can already be called guaranteed, let's add five more from the 50 to 50 category. However, this is unlikely to help the British retain second place. Why is the answer in the next paragraph.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": 25 gold medals and third place.

China

China is on a par with the UK in gold medals, but inferior in the rest of the precious metal - 19-15-20. However, athletes from the Celestial Empire have a lot of trump cards that they can use to make a breakthrough and overtake the Europeans.

The Chinese can be given the two remaining gold medals in diving, a victory in women's 20 km walking, at least two or even three awards of the highest standard in badminton, since in the final matches the nerves of Chinese athletes turn from iron into titanium.

Asians have maintained a good representation in boxing, and in those disciplines in which they are traditionally strong - in lightweight for men and in all three women's categories. The Chinese have not yet exhausted themselves in many athletics disciplines - there are medal hopes in the 50-kilometer entry for men, women's modern pentathlon, the heaviest women's weight categories in wrestling and taekwondo, as well as in women's volleyball. The Chinese can squeeze a couple of gold medals out of everything listed in this paragraph.

In total, it turns out that China will exceed the British limit of 25 gold by two or three points and then become the second in the medal table, just like four years ago in London.

But in terms of the number of victories, the Celestial Empire is rapidly degrading, because in Beijing there were 51 gold medals, and in the British capital - 38. The Chinese can even lose to themselves in the 2000 model, when they got 28 gold medals.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": 27 gold medals and second place.

Russia

It should be recognized as a fact: without track and field athletics, Russia will show its worst result since 1952. There is no way to get more than 20 gold. Of course, hope dies last and we still have a few disciplines that are guaranteed to promise gold, but it still won't be enough.

In addition to the 12 gold, 12 silver and 14 bronze medals that we already have, we can add two awards of the highest standard in rhythmic gymnastics, one in synchronized swimming, one in boxing and one in freestyle wrestling. The total is 17 gold medals.

If we go according to an optimistic forecast, then the Russians can win two victories in boxing instead of one, hope for the success of Andrey Kreitor in the single sprint canoe, believe in the women's handball and men's volleyball teams, in the pentathlete Alexander Lesun, demand the first gold in taekwondo and an extra reward the highest dignity in freestyle wrestling.

But how often do the Russians manage to win when there is no status of unconditional favorites, confirmed by long triumphant years? Quite rare, and in Rio as well. Russia has very few unplanned gold medals, and therefore it is worth being more careful with expectations.

Let 18 Brazilian Olympic gold medals be our goal for the remaining four days. Looking from the position of the place in the medal standings, it will still allow you to take the fourth place, which was also in London. Alas, but, apparently, the “wooden” fourth line at the Summer Olympics is the fate of Russia for many years.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": 18 gold medals and fourth place.

Germany

Russia is on the heels of Germany, which has been waiting for 20 years to get into the top four of the medal standings. Let's hope that the Germans will have to wait for at least one more Olympic cycle. They, unlike us, have not so many medal types left.

Germany should not miss the gold in women's football - in men's football, Brazil will not allow it to become a champion. The Germans are traditionally strong in rowing, and therefore we will also attribute one gold to them - in the women's kayak-four or the stayer men's kayak-two. After the defeat in the team show jumping, the Bundesteam will take revenge in the individual championship. Finally, in athletics, the Germans cannot be left without gold in the men's or women's javelin.

Men's handball and women's modern pentathlon can also give positive emotions to fans from Germany. Boxer Artem Kharutyunyan remains in the ranks, but it will be difficult for him to take gold from Russian Vitaly Dunaytsev.

If suddenly the Germans make a final spurt and take gold wherever they have even average chances, then, of course, they will rise to fourth place. If the Olympics were held in Germany, then we would be sure of this. But in Brazil, many favorites from Germany felt uncomfortable, and they feel the lack of awards. Loss to Russia in the dispute for the fourth place remains very likely.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": 16 gold medals and fifth place.

Japan

Women's wrestling returned the Japanese to high positions in the medal standings. The Land of the Rising Sun now has ten gold, five silver and 18 bronze awards. Before Russia and Germany, she has very little left.

Only now there are very few Japanese species in the competitive program. These are two women's categories in freestyle wrestling (up to 53 and 63 kg) and one in taekwondo (up to 57 kg). Any other award will be a big sensation.

The islanders should not be upset. The Rio Olympics have already become very successful for them. Over the past 30 years, they have only managed to collect more than ten gold awards once - it was in Athens. Being in the top ten should already be happiness for the Japanese, and in Rio they will definitely not fall out of it.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": 12 gold medals and seventh place.

France

Why will the Japanese take seventh place, and not remain in sixth? Yes, because they have very few silver medals, and their importance is quite high for countries below fifth place. In this sense, the position of the French is very advantageous, which, if they are equal in gold, will overtake the Asians.

This option is quite real, even taking into account the fact that now the Fifth Republic has only eight gold, 11 silver and 10 bronze awards. But the French have much more medal opportunities than the Japanese.

First, there is handball - the men's and women's teams continue to fight. Secondly, there are three undefeated boxers at the disposal. Thirdly, very fast paddlers in kayak and canoe. Medal prospects in modern pentathlon, men's 50 km walking, taekwondo, cycling-BMX ... It's far from a fact that all these disciplines will become gold for France. But it's better than relying on just three athletes.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": 12 gold medals and sixth place due to silver medals.

Italy

The Italians are on a par with the French, losing only in silver and bronze. But how to overtake them, when the chances of gold are less every day? Of the absolute options, there are men's volleyball and wrestler Frank Chamiso, who competes in the category up to 65 kg.

In water polo and beach volleyball, the Italians are also close to the awards, but it's hard to believe that the Balkans, Americans and Brazilians will lose gold in their disciplines. The Italian team, which has won eight gold medals each in the last three Olympics, can finally overcome the double-digit milestone and stop there.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": ten gold medals and eighth place.

Netherlands

The Dutch will long commemorate Rio with a good memory - they have not performed as well as here for 16 years. The icing on the cake could be a victory in women's field hockey - the Netherlands team is in full swing to win Rio's ninth and final gold medal in it.

The country of tulips has no objective chances for medals in other disciplines. But they almost reserved a place in the top ten for themselves.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": nine gold medals and tenth place.

Australia

The Australians should move the Dutch and climb to the ninth line. The walker Jarred Talent is the main favorite in the 50 km walk, the men's double kayak is able to fight the Germans at a distance of 1000 m, the Australian riders are strong in BMX.

Their efforts may be enough to place ninth in the medal table, which is a step backwards for kangaroo country - the Green Continent has been falling lower and lower since the Sydney Olympics. There are not enough prerequisites to start climbing.

Forecast "Gazeta.Ru": ten gold medals and ninth place.
