One thing people forget about the Olympics is that is still amateurish. Everything from the officials, to the 15-year time keeper to the volunteers. This is just another one of those stories.
Yep, and what made it even worse was then calling that penalty an intentional handball immediately afterwards. Almost but not quite as bad as the initial call.

Really sketchy, especially with the world number 1s losing with 10 or 15 to go. Sad to see a legendary performance by Sinclair wasted.
