Angel Matos Video - Kicks Referee in the Face

This took a bit of searching to find — you won’t find it on YouTube aside from photo slideshows and Rickrolls.

The following video is of the match between Taekwondo athletes Angel Matos (Cuba) and Arman Chilmanov (Kazakhstan) during the 2008 Summer Olympics. According to the rules of the World Taekwondo Federation, athletes are allowed a maximum of one minute for a medical time-out (known as Kye-shi). Matos, who was previously in the lead, exceeded the maximum Kye-shi. Matos’ opponent Chilmanov was therefore pronounced the winner of the match. After that call was made, Matos got heated and planted a well-executed axe kick into the face of the referee, Chakir Chelbat. Both Matos and his coach, Leudis Gonzalez, now have a lifetime ban from the Olympic Games. The actual confrontation in the video starts around 2:30. You can read more about the story here.
