The win-loss mechanism of taekwondo matches is mainly based on the following points:

Scoring system: In a match, players can earn points by kicking, punching, pushing, etc., attacking the opponent's effective parts (head, torso, thighs and above). 1 point is awarded for hitting the effective part, and 2 points for causing the opponent to lose balance or fall to the ground. In addition, 3 points are awarded for a spinning kick, 2 points for a regular kick to the gear, and 4 points for both a spin kick to the protector and a regular kick.

Match time and number of rounds: The duration of each game is 3 minutes for the individual competition and 5 minutes for the team competition. There is a 2-minute break in the middle of each match.

The criteria for determining victory or defeat: In a match, a player will be judged a loser if the following happens: knocked out by the opponent; Penalty for a foul; Abandon the game yourself; The total score is lower than the opponent within the time specified in the game; or there were no irregularities in the game, but there was no effective offensive and defensive confrontation between the two sides.

Extra time: In a match, if both teams score equally, the winner will be decided by extra time. Extra time is usually 2 minutes long with no breaks.

Fouls and penalty points: If a player commits a foul in the match, the opponent will receive 1 point. For example, 1 point is awarded for punching the opponent, 2 points for kicking the armor, etc. In addition, if a player does not follow the rules, such as taking more than two steps back and not making a move, it will be a foul, and if he takes more than two steps back, he will be fouled, etc., and will be deducted points or even a loss.

Other considerations: During the competition, players must abide by the rules of the game and the instructions of the referee; If a player passively attacks or does not make any offensive moves, they will be deducted points or awarded a loss; If a player uses improper means to attack the opponent, they will be warned, deducted points or even judged to lose.

In general, the winning and losing mechanism of taekwondo competitions is relatively rigorous and fair, mainly based on the comprehensive evaluation of multiple factors such as the technical level, tactical use and competition performance of the players.
