English and Americans, now all mute – Libero Quotidiano

Gods were advanced first from the United Kingdom, then from the United States suspected doping towards Marcell Jacobs. His “fault” is to have won the final of the 100 meters in Tokyo 2020 starting from semi-unknown internationally. Not only that, because the blue born in El Paso, Texas, has also rewritten the new European record, crossing the line in front of everyone in 9”80. The Washington Post is the one that has talked about doping most openly.

“It is not Jacobs’ fault if the history of athletics is linked to suspicions of sudden and enormous progress – the American newspaper reads – the annals of sport are full of samples that explode and then turn out to be doped. It would be unfair to accuse Jacobs (which they did, however, covertly, ed), it would be partial not to recognize the context of his results. Jacobs deserves the benefit of the doubt, but his sport doesn’t ”.

Hard, very hard the reaction of Giovanni Malagò. The number one of the Coni has returned to the sender all the insinuations arriving on the triumph of Jacobs: “Accused of doping? The considerations of some of your colleagues are truly a source of great sorrow and even embarrassment from all points of view. Sorry that someone proves that they cannot accept defeat. We are talking about athletes who are subjected to doping controls daily and when they make a record, everything is doubled. The number of tests is impressive. This is why – Malagò commented – mine is a sword defense against Marcell ”.
