Show Explanation
Explanation
In Judo, a match ends immediately if a player scores an Ippon, which is the highest possible score, or if the opponent receives a Hansoku-make, a major penalty leading to disqualification. Judo does not allow striking or kicking techniques; instead, it focuses on throws, holds, joint locks, and choking techniques. Terms like Shime - waza refer to choking methods, while Kansetsu-waza involve joint locks, not kicks.
