洛加尼斯必须完成一个近乎满分的动作才能获得金牌，而他真的做到了这一点。他最后做出了其拿手好戏中最难的动作: 一个抱膝1周半空翻，就这样仅以0.1分的优势从熊倪那儿夺走金牌。

• Louganis had to make a near perfect dive to take the gold and he did it with the most difficult one in his repertoire,a 1-1/2 somersault in tuck position,allowing him to edge Xiong Ni by a mere point to win the gold.
