At the end of the Olympic canoe competitions, the German four-man canoe won the gold and achieved a somewhat restorative Olympic final for the canoeists who used to be successful. Max Rendschmidt, Ronald Rauh, Tom Liebcher and Max Lemke triumphed on Saturday and won only their third regatta medal at the Tokyo Games – the goal was six to seven. For the first time in a long time, women failed to make it onto the podium.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
