South Korea protested after Shin A Lam's controversial defeat by Germany's Britta Heidemann in the Olympic women's fencing epee semi-finals on Monday, claiming the winning assault was made after time was up. The two fencers had been locked at 5-5 inside the extra minute period. The German then scored what she thought was the winning hit, but the Korean coach claimed the assault came after the final second was up. That sparked angry scenes while judges deliberated over how to resolve the contest. After more than 20 minutes of talks, victory was awarded to Heidemann and Shin collapsed onto the floor in tears as her coach stormed off.
