South Korea defeated Germany for the bronze medal in judo's mixed team event at the Paris Olympics on Saturday. This was South Korea's fifth medal in judo in the French capital, after two silver medals and two bronze medals in individual events. With the score tied at 3-3 after six matches involving three male and three female judokas each, the teams went to a sudden-death match in the men's -73-kilogram division after it was randomly selected. An Baul then defeated Igor Wandtke after the German received his third and final "shido," or warning, at the 5:25 mark. Source: Yonhap News Agency
