The scene is the final of men's high jump at the Tokyo Olympics. Italy's Gianmarco Tamberi was facing Qatar's Mutaz Essa Barshim in the final. Both of them jumped 2.37 meters and were on par ! Olympic officials gave three more attempts to each of them, but they were unable to
2/n
reach more than 2.37 meters
One more attempt was given to two both of them, but Tampberi withdrew from the last attempt due to a serious leg injury. The moment when there was no other opponent in front of Barshim, d moment when he could have easily approached d gold alone

But Barshim asked d official "if the gold can be shared between the two of us if I withdraw from d final attempt ?" The official checks & confirms and says "yes then the gold will be shared between d two of you". Barshim then had nothing to think about, announces withdrawal

Seeing this, the Italian opponent Tamberi ran and hugged Barshim and screamed ! What we saw there was a great share of love in sports that touches our hearts. It reveals the indescribable sportsmanship that makes religions, colors and borders irrelevant !!!
