The president of the IOC, the Belgian Jacques Rogge, Last night he announced the chosen city to host the 2020 Olympic Games: Tokyo

Tokyo has won convincingly. Madrid y Istanbul they had to face each other in the first round of voting and in the tiebreaker Madrid, they were eliminated.

Sad day in the Puerta de Alcalá, where hundreds of people gathered as support for this candidacy, which ultimately could not be.

For Tokyo, these will be their second Olympic Games after hosting them in 1964. The basic arguments for this election have been "The basis of your proposal as well as the experience in previous candidacies".

In Buenos Aires, supporting this candidacy, we were able to count on the presence of the President of the International Triathlon Federation and member of the IOC, Marisol Casado, as well as the President of the Spanish Triathlon Federation as well as a member of the Communication Commission, Social Networks and New Technologies of the Spanish Olympic Committee, a position he has held since last May.

Some of the causes that questioned Madrid's Olympic candidacy were doping and the economic situation our country is suffering.

From TN, we send all our support and congratulate the candidature for the work and perseverance in the previous months to fight to defend the headquarters of Madrid.
