18-17 CHN 18-18 19-18 CHN 19-18 WHEN MALAYSIA WON THE POINT. It should be 19-19 20-18 CHN MYSTERY SOLVED. The Umpire deducted a point from the Malaysians. You can see the Malaysian if she has the score right, you see Tan Jinhua arguing that it is 19-18, and the umpire obviously tells her its 19-18. It should have been 19-19. Umpire's fault, and the CHN player's bad sportsmanship.
Is it so?? I missed the link of the live streaming. Now there is a basketball tournament going in it..!!! What happened actually?
The error occured when the Chinese scored 19-18 but the umpire announced 19-17. The score should have been 20-20 when the discussions began btw.
mas-chn actual: 18-18 umpire: 18-18 but scoreboard stuck at 17-18 actual: 18-19 umpire: 17-19 actual: 19-19 umpire: 19-18 ...
Not quite 18-18 19-18 for CHN but the umpire announced 19-17 What then should have been 19-19 (MAS serving) was announced as 18-19 but Tan served from the left. The umpire didn't realize that and kept going. Then it was 20-18 for CHN (what should have been 20-19) and then after MAS got another point we got to the point where the discussions started.
Next match...

What punishment do umpires get for incompetence? I wouldn't want to be playing under that umpire if I was a player..
I am pretty sure that the scoreboard will resume its normal function that now no CHN players are on court
I can't blame the umpire for that error. It was a technical error, the scoring system just stopped. If any person apart from the IT guys is to blame it is the tournament referee for not saying that they have to use the classic score sheet as well as the touchpad.
Can't really blame the umpire coz her job is to read out the score from the electronic device... so if the electronic device screwed up, she got screwed ...
I know,when tournament ref came up she kept repeating I believe it's 19-20, she should have just came clean and said she was uncertain like she knew she was.
