Tila hindi masaya ang Filipino karateka na si Junna Tsukii matapos na masungkit ang silver medal sa 32nd Southeast Asian Games na ginanap sa bansang Cambodia, para sa kategoryang karate.
Mababasa sa Instagram post ni Tsukii nitong Sabado, Mayo 6, ang pasasalamat niya sa kaniyang mga tagasuporta at ang pagkadismayang hindi niya nakuha ang inaasam-asam na gold medal.
"Thank you for all the support."
"I am sad because I am not the color of the medal I wanted. I am sorry I could not meet your expectations.

I lost the final by the referee's decision," ani Tsukii.
"I was convinced that I had won while waiting for the referee's call, because according to the rules of karate, the referee raises the flag to whoever is the most aggressive and controls the game."
"However, I am sorry but I did not stand on the podium because I do not want to be able to accept the unfair judges this time."
"But all athletes have sacrificed and walked for this moment, and I want to honor and congratulate everyone."
"I will be cheering for my team tomorrow, hoping that many gold medals will be won🇵🇭✨Maraming salamat po."
Nakalaban ni Tsukii sa women’s karate-50kg kumite category si Shahmalarani Chandran ng Malaysia. Matapos ang kanilang 1-1 tie, napagdesisyunan ng mga hurado at referee na ibigay ang panalo kay Chandran.
