The Italian 4x100m relay quartet of Olympic 100m champion Marcell Jacobs, Lorenzo Patta, Eseosa Desalu and Filippo Tortu raced to victory in the final at Tokyo 2020. The Italians featuring 100m champion Marcell Jacobs won their country's first medal in the event at the Olympics since London 1948. Lead-off runner Patta handed the baton to Jacobs, who produced a storming run down the back end, with Tortu on the anchor leg crossed the line in a new Italian record of 37.50 seconds. Great Britain, pipped at the line by 0.01s, claimed the silver medal, with Canada bagging bronze, clocking 37.70.

I'm 61. when I was young I practiced athletics and ran 80 and 100 meters. I didn't think I could ever see the Italian sprinters win Olympic gold. Thanks guys for this great joy, I would like to hug you all
Ahahaha wow
hai visto Mennea a Mosca 1980 nei 200m
@@massimobernardo-. Certo. Mennea è stato il nostro idolo, il motore che ha spinto migliaia di giovani di allora a praticare questo meraviglioso sport. L'avevo visto correre all' Arena di Milano , credo nel 1972/73, dove noi dell' AICS Milano ci allenavamo.
@@jonathang.tedesco5254 hey can you speak English language?
Not only Mennea. Also Livio Berruti.
Watching that Italian guy run the last leg was like watching an eagle fly. Really stunning victory and well deserved
That's fairly close to my impression of his run and I've been wondering why that is. I think it is a combination of him extending his arms behind himself slightly more than the other runners, plus the fact that he's white and his arms are more noticeable in contrast to the red track color. It really does give an impression of him grabbing air and throwing it behind him as he takes off in reckless abandon.
No it’s not

@@Sikyu-ye4ns. Wow, what a shame for them
I am not an Italian but I cried watching this. Haha. Congrats Italia
Thanks 🙂
No you didnt
We play sports like a drama. At the end of the show we give you tears of joy

@@daniele5057 I'm sure he didn't see French football team
I can't count how many time do i watch this... Filippo Tortu made me even cry from S. Korea...
This is probably my all-time favorite 4x100 final. Absolutely electrifying. Tortu turned into Secretariat. He was running like a tremendous machine. And that might be the best finish-line lean I've ever seen.
What you wrote is very beautiful and I thank you... as an Italian, if you allow me, I like to think that Tortu was incarnated in Ribot, another legendary horse of the world gallop. Kind regards.
2012?
Everyone knows 2012 is Forever the Greatest & Unbeatable.
Thank you so much to the commentators having said that the Italian anthem is one of the best in the world. Their commentary is absolutely impartial, but at the same time extremely passionate for the epic victory. Really appreciated all their words from first to last one, thank you indeed
Well said!
@@1923gino sempre forza Samp, io l'anno dello scudetto c'ero...
12:37 the dude from Italy running that turn was incredible.
Yep, he's a 200 mt runner, that's why he was assigned that leg
That was a clean bend the other guys caught up only because of their lane too
12:49 His cheers are so underrated
The number of times I've watched that Italian last leg is abnormal 🤯
I get goosebumps every time. TORTU what....
great!
yes
YES !! Me too. What a fantastic run!
Me to he so fast
i hear ya there
I don't know why, but i cried out. I'm enormously glad for the Italians. Great job!
thank you
I still watched and admired this remarkable win of The Azzuri Team from time to time. Tortu was the breathtaking sprinter. Congratulations to Italia.

CHINA SQUAD: ALL CHINESE GUYS 🥉..ONLY CHINESE ATHLETES ARE PURE ETHNIC ATHLETES
@@lukashanko90 , What is 'pure ethnic' about the 4 chinese guys only you know, considering that even in China, over the centuries, there have been massive invasions from the north, from the east, from Japan to the west. If you are saying that the somatic features are oriental I can't argue with you.
@@lukashanko90 yeah they are so 'ethnically pure' that china only recognizes 56 different ethnicities in their country... stop that fascist bullshit
Tortu was already quite famous in Italy way before the Tokyo Olympics and we expected him to be in the 100m final and maybe have a shot at the medals, because he broke the 10s barrier and the national record at a very young age. No one in Italy knew who Marcell Jacobs was before this final or even after this final until we saw him winning. That probably helped him, because all the pressure was on Tortu. So it might be a surprise for the rest of the world but it's not a surprise for Italians that Tortu could run like that.
As an Italian, this is my weekly rewatch of this beauty
Regards from China 🙏❤️
Crying for the Italian team now. Well well done!!!!
Italy🔥 Respect from Russia❤
The most beautiful medal of these Olympic Games. A fantastic performance accomplished with heart and soul.
you can clearly see Tortu putting everything his body and his mind could provide in those final 100 metres
I cry every time I watch this. Filippo Tortu was beyond amazing. So proud to be Italian.
The Italian last leg did it for me😁😁😁 incredible performance 🙌🙌
Jacobs' 2nd leg was quite stellar too. Second leg is often expected to run 140 meters at top speed due to the flexibility of passing anywhere within two hand-off zones. This is the leg I always ran.
@@binkyxz3 Most important LEG= ALWAYS THE ANCHOR LEG= YOUR BEST RUNNER IS ALMOST ALWAYS THE ANCHOR🔨🔨🔨🏆🏆🏆
@@captainamericaamerica8090 My argument has a distance component. I could out-run our anchor, who in reality was a 60m guy, over 200 meters. Jacobs is THE 100 meter Olympic gold medalist and has plans to run the 200m in 2024. I rest my case.
@@binkyxz3 You need to really REST YOUR FAT OVERWORKED FINGERS.😥😥😥😥😥KEYBOARD WARRIOR. STOP CREATING NONSENSE SCENARIOS.! FROM DAYS LONG GONE! GET A REAL LIFE!
Italy's relay team disqualified
Filippo Tortu’s no joke, consistently one of the fastest in the world.
The faces say it all. Look at how relaxed Tortu is over the final 30m vs. Mitchell-Blake (9:43-9:53). Tightness vs. relaxation. Relaxation wins every time.
Yes the Italian was very relaxed as you said I can't wait to see them this summer at the World Championships in Eugene the USA will definitely be in the hunt for the GOLD.
It's interesting how everyone is starting to learn sprint mechanics.
@@JT-km6th Yeah the philosophy really shifted the last decade or two
True when I use to wrestle I was always relaxed always even up against strong opponents I just thought about form and tech and I always pull through
Chinese team finally received their bronze medals in this match yesterday !!!!!!!!!!!
The greatest win in the sports history of Italy
What about Vanessa Ferrari
nothing compares@@letsdothis3332
That Italian was FLYING!
Those kids fly!
Much respect for the Italians..
WOW!!!i never knew italians can fly
Lots of parties tonight in italy
Unbelievable run. Love u guys

So we won and yet you don't hate us. Wow THANK YOU guy, you made my day better.
LOL
The last runner of Italian team deserves to compete in 100 m, he is a fantastic sprinter.
He competed in 100m, but didn't qualify for the final
Probably he was so hungry after his disappointing performance on the 100s that he let it all out here, phisically and mentally
The thing with single race is starting off the blocks
Not easy gaining the momentum after go
100m need a great start which is the weak part of Filippo Tortu.
Being 4th in relay is launched...
And he's Great.
@@unomeacaso A 100m Olympic semifinal is a 'disappointing performance', for you...? Show us your medals, then 😏
Compliments for the commentary. Very balanced... the very opposite of English Eurosport who didn't considered italy till the last 50 cm...

Do you have the link to that race?
Seguo l'atletica dai tempi di Mennea. La ritengo la regina degli sport. Mai avrei pensato che l'Italia vincesse la 4x100 olimpica. Tortu è stato meraviglioso, ma tutti sono stati grandi.
siamo in due
The Italians deserved that GOLD in the 4/100 meter race...WOW! Just WOWW!
He was beaten by a guy, who was in his inspired form, riding high on the back of unprecedented Italian momentum!

It's July 2022 and I'm still enjoying it. What a legendary day for 🇮🇹
Such a soulful performance from Italy! I come back to watch this from time to time
7:03 tremendous effort from De Grasse, who took the baton far away at 5th to finish on the podium !

As an italian I waited for weeks for this video😂
Io pure.
I swear every video I saw a request 😂. I saw it live.
I am not an italian though...But I waited impatiently too
Same I commented under each comment for this video finalmente l’hanno messo 🤣
I want to see Italian commentators live reactions. They must've gone bananas.
What a intense neck to neck competition.
That's what is olympics💙
Congrats Italy
I come back to watch this for the incredible race by the Italians, and especially the Italian anchor's facial expression after crossing the line that is so LOVELY! Awesome race
This was amazing finish from the Italians
Andre De grasse finish is incredible also.
true
Great Britain was disqualified as one runner not passing the doping test. Thus the China take the bronze!
I will keep watching this relay over and over. This is history and I hope they are really appreciated by Italy as I do of them.
thank you
I have watched this many times and still get emotional. This is a great achievement for Italy
È appena cominciata l'estate, c'è un bel caldo ma sono qua con i brividi a guardare, ancora, questa gara.
Indimenticabile! ☀🇮🇹🥇
Tortu was just a flash
Well deserved win to the Italian squad 🔥
I remember watching a video of Tortu racing here at UA-cam many years ago. He runs with an extremely clean form with no wastage of movement. Commenters here were like: he’s not gonna make it to the bigs, he has potential but not enough. Well, guess who just won a gold medal?
in relay the baton passes can be crucial, and Italians have been almost flawless, while faster runners from other countries messed up...
Tortu was simply great in this race, but his personal best on 100m is still "only" 9.99 seconds, so indeed not quite on par with "the bigs" (who now include Jacobs!)
His speed is on par with anyone in the world, his start is terrible so his 100m mark is deceptive, if Lemaitre had trained like him and taken the same drugs as all the best sprinters do he could have beaten Bolt in 2012
@@JohnSmith-yn9ie Tortu, Bolt, and Lemaitre are tall runners standing at 6'2, 6'5, and 6'3 respectively. So bad starts are common for them. Asafa Powell who stood at 6'3 with a superior start is one of those rare exceptions
@@eamparbeng That is broadly correct, but each sprinter is unique, his split time speaks for itself, one of the fastest in history
@@eorlsven1241 Not perfect, though: the last change especially was too narrow, so Filippo had to accelerate more after the change and he did a great job.
They can definitely improve this performance.
I want to move to Italy and become Italian watching this. The Tokyo Olympics, the Italians were great in many events.
Thankyou for your kind words...
Italian male athletic team: 4 golds.
USA and few other teams: 2 golds.
...No more words needed.
you're welcome! 🤗
You'll be welcome here.
Welcome!
Don Tortu.. great race.
Andre De Grasse was also amazing..
Two amazing sprinters!
Tortu was so relaxed running that last leg. He didn't tense up. He stuck to his gameplan and caught his target.
11:20 thank you! Mitchell-Blake gave it his best effort, perhaps showing too much tension as he heard Tortu coming in the last few meters. Tortu was relaxed and in perfect form in the greatest race of his life. Sometimes your best just isn’t enough. Props to both men.
Don't forget that Britain has been disqualified for doping in this competition.
Actually there was not a close victory, there was no race, only Italy!!
Wow now this is interesting how I’m a Brit and didn’t even know this…yet everyone knows about the doping sandal of the Russian girl in the Winter Olympics….wow
Tortu put everything in that last 100m
After the retirement of Usain Bolt , most people will expect American team will take back the throne, but unexpectedly, Italian snatched both 100 m and 4x100 meter! 😱
The way de grasse gives Canada a medal everytime from nowhere is commendable
Love how Tortu just smoked the field down the home stretch.
The italians were amazing! What a 4X100 final!
Watching Tortu run Mitchell-Blake down was so satisfying lol. I was so happy Italy beat GBR haha 🇮🇹
Italia really stepped up their games in Olympic 2020 Athletics! Well done!
Absolutely incredible Italian team, Azzuri best👍

2022 rewatching this 4x100m relay race.
that last italian runner has a gorgeous stride.
Bravo Italia!
Superb!
I can't imagine the amount of energy Tortu must have felt when he got that baton. Anchor leg, in the Olympics, already in medal position and only a step behind first place, with a chance to run down the leader and claim eternal glory. Dang
watch the 3rd leg runner, shout some motivation into him. Couldn't let that down, lol. It was a well deserved victory for Italy.
Jacobs season of his life (still not repeated in 2 years)
Tortu race of his life (still not repeated in 2 years)
Desalu ran a magnificent bend and Patta lead as a few Italians have ever done.
That was THE RACE. And they won by 1/100th just to remind how difficult is this sport. All your youth given in trainings for 1/100th which can decide a gold or a silver… wow what a sport!
Tortu corrió el mejor finish de su vida!!💯🇪🇨
It's sad to see Jamaicans not even competing in the top 3, I remember watching Bolt, Blake, and Powel dominating this race easily, the rest were competing for 2nd place as 1st was booked for the Jamaicans
The last leg by italy is such a storming finish.commendable performance by azuris. And withoult bolt, Jamaica can do nothing in relay.
19:00 of course the Italians have all the style!!! Congratulations Italia!!!
It’s a shame the Japanese team missed the handoff. It happens in track a lot but the Japanese team has always been a strong contending team for gold or silver.
NOT REALLY! ONLY GOLD' COUNTS! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
