It wasn't until Spain finished that I realized I had been completely transfixed by their routine. Everything from costuming, to choreo, to the vivid neons in their ribbons just made them absolutely enthralling to watch. All of these ladies were incredible, no doubt, but Spain blew me away.
@@amm6569 Nah. The Russian had a better and more difficult second routine. Russia deserved the gold. Spain was meh. Yawn. Even Italy and Ukraine (with mistakes) were much more exciting to watch than Spain
@@patem7379 I don´t think so, their 2 hoops 3 clubs wasn´t that difficult, was amazingly choreographed but not at the level of russia exercise, in their 5 ribbons of course Spain was superior by their performance, maybe the difference between the total should be shorter
The Olympic games in Rio were magic! The arena is huge; the routines, splendid; the crowd was amazing, supporting the ladies as I've never seen in previous Olympic games. Great times!
I agree!!! Their music, the choreography, movement across the mat, it was so artistic! Their routine told a story as well, along with the music, and definitely pulled my emotions!
after watching spain being flawless in both their rutines and seing russia make so many mistakes in the first one and still get the gold i'm seriusly hearbroken for spain.
Its because russia was overscored lol. They kept making mistakes and even dropped a ribbon, but its not really a surprise since they always are overscored
My favorite sports in the Olympics have always been gymnastics, diving and swimming but always gymnastics first. I always thought rhythmic gymnastics was a watered down version of real gymnastics for athletes who couldn’t get to the higher elite tiers but now I see I was incorrect. In all fairness though they don’t do much for themselves as a sport as far as PR goes. People either don’t realize it exists or know very little about the sport. Why aren’t these amazing athletes talked about much or get much advertisement if at all? I just happened to come across this video and I’m blown away. This looks beautiful and extremely difficult. It’s enchanting and lovely to watch. I can’t imagine how hard getting all of that down to perfection would be. I get tangled up just trying to use a roll of scotch tape.
This is so mesmerizing. I can’t take my eyes off this. The longer I watch this, the more the ribbons look like animation, which is really neat. It seems almost magical
Check out Richard McDonald. He creates gorgeous artwork inspired by rhythmic gymnastics. Some are like 20 foot high statues of a gymnast mid leap with ribbon or ball. Gorgeous stuff.
I really think judges wanted Russia to win pretty bad, I accept Russia's second routine was far better than any other team but Spain deserve more than 17.9 for their 2nd routine, just because they went first to perform, judges were more stingy with their scores, they definitely deserved at least between 18.2-18.4
Eh I'm not from Europe. I'm from Asia. But I'm disagree with you, you just see the tiny skills of Russia. All are very difficult and follow the music. Is not easy. They deserve to win gold medal
@@cute1988 Same. I am also an Asian and I agree that the Russian Federation really deserved that medal. Their routines were incredibly difficult and busy. To complex and also elegant.
Nope. It was Russia.👌 Base on difficulty and execution on the 2nd routine score. Spain didn't make a big cushion for 1st routine, so the Russian come back is 👌
i love watching gymnastics and rhythmic gmnastics. the flow of everything and the beat of the everything is amazing! its addicting to watch be cuz you can't stop.
Russia’s 3+2 routines are always the most interesting and amazing to watch! It was the same in the 2012 Olympics. Their 5 Ribbons routine can be easily removed from history (especially those awful leotards), but their 2 hoops + 6 clubs routine is amazing!
Wow. I actually enjoyed Japan. Surprised they scored so low. Not saying the best but definitely not a low 16 in my opinion. Edit : Spain and Bulgaria 😍😍😍
Milagro!!! Casi 4 años de espera para volver a ver esta gran final... Ojala y mexico se clasifique y que por primera vez historica se meta en la final olimpica...!
@@RafaelCaver Pues nuestros rivales directos para una plaza son Brasil y Estados Unidos, internacionalmente son china, azerbaijan y uzbekistan, esperemos que le metan mas dificultad en el ejercicio de 5 pelotas, quien fuera egipto y australia que clasificaran casi casi directamente...
At least the Israelis smiled at the end! The Spanish team really looked like they were enjoying themselves - and it makes such a difference to the audience watching. The Italian ribbons was just beautiful.
I love this sport so much! I am a little confused, however, at why the commentators thought Ukraine's leotards looked "more like costumes than competition attire". To me they looked more athletic than the Russian's ribbon outfits, for instance, is there something I'm missing? I was a figure skater, where we have deductions for "illusion of excessive nudity"...
I also liked that outfit... what's wrong with that? They looked perfect to me...and Ukrainian team's performance was also fantastic...they were unlucky...
Thank you Olympics chanel for this beautiful gift in quarantine! please ... we also want to see rhythmic gymnastics of the Sydney 2000 Olympics! Thank you
Russia made several mistakes in there 5 ribbon routine…. I know they came back 100% stronger and smashed it with their clubs and Hoop routine…BUT Spain and Bulgaria didn’t make any mistake…. In both of their routines/ Me personally I thought Russia deserved the Silver Medal not the gold medal. Which makes me assume they could’ve given Yana the gold medal and not to Margarita…. Why so forgiving to the Russian team in the group all round and not Yana in the individual event….I mean it just doesn’t make sense! Plus she only made one mistake instead of several. I don’t want the excuse of because of the difficulty! Yana had more difficulty in her hoop, ball, club and ribbon routine then Margarita’s
I’ve never seen this sport before and coming from an unbiased point (I usually root for USA or Mexico or Guatemala), I think Italy and Russia were just spectacular.
España en Cinta tuvo 8.900 y lo hizo super bien . Russia tuvo 1 caída y le falló una colaboración y le dieron 8.700 fueron muy buenos con Rusia los jueces 🌚
Either the Russian Federation was scored too high for their performance or many other groups were under scored. Spain was mesmerizing. They should have been so much higher than Russia than they were.
Russia’s performance is so complex, they really deserve the gold medal. They’re not afraid to try those very difficult combinations. I felt like I was on the edge of my seat while watching their routine.

No one is touching Russia after that second routine. Holy balls, 9.4 difficulty and 9.233 execution. Absolutely splendid.
They all just hating Russia for no reason
Year 2021 and I still think that Spain deserved to win this final ❤️
For ribbons I expected Spain to score higher! Russia’s felt a little messy to me
❤️
I think it may be the colors and the theme that they have. I feel like the color of the ribbons would have an affect in how smooth it looks.
Its because russia was overscored lol. They kept making mistakes and even dropped a ribbon, but its not really a surprise since they always are overscored

The only two groups without a mistake were Spain and Bulgaria (I think). All of those routines were so amazing tho 😍😍😍
It just feels like Spain hat the most technical difficulty and Italy hat the most artistic beauty and also impressed me the most.
Yeah same. Italy was visually stunning but they lacked as much technical difficulty as others. I was disappointed they didn’t score higher.

They should really have a darker carpet to showcase the athletes better.
Yes
That's what I was saying. They should've done that but my friend disagrees with me
No I think they need to dim the lights in the audience . Watch footage from London 2012
Most beautiful sport ever

They nearly choke off and the ending was a bit messy; not the intended move for finale.😑

Really love their outfits look how stunning they were
At least the Israelis smiled at the end! The Spanish team really looked like they were enjoying themselves - and it makes such a difference to the audience watching. The Italian ribbons was just beautiful.
oh my, the DIFFICULTY of Russia's 2 hoops and 3 pair of clubs, just wow, probably the best hoops and clubs routine ever
❤️🤩
Everyone : Hands.
Russians : who needs hands?
Spain’s performance was much better according to me.
Italy was my favourite is was so beautiful
Wow that was stunning!! Did anyone else get major anxiety every time they threw the ribbon though? 😂 I cringed thinking someone would drop it
Same. And I constantly worried their ribbons would get tangled.
Spain deserved gold medal
I love this sport so much! I am a little confused, however, at why the commentators thought Ukraine's leotards looked "more like costumes than competition attire". To me they looked more athletic than the Russian's ribbon outfits, for instance, is there something I'm missing? I was a figure skater, where we have deductions for "illusion of excessive nudity"...
I’m a competitive dancer and I’m equally confused as well especially with the scoring. I thought it was unfair to say the least
Maybe not enough skin was showing? After norways volleyball scandal this wouldn't surprise me...
I do not like the outfit neither (the purple one) but I did not know it actually cost the team that much.
I also liked that outfit... what's wrong with that? They looked perfect to me...and Ukrainian team's performance was also fantastic...they were unlucky...
The second costume reminded me of Natalie Portmans dress on the awful naboo scene in Episode 2
I love when they use bright neon colors 😍
