One semi-final and 11 more quarter-finals. Such is the balance sheet for Bulgaria after the completion of the first two rounds of the European boxing championship for men and women in Belgrade. Asluhan Mehmedova became another native participant who reached the Top 8 of the Old Continent in the Serbian capital.
Under the guidance of coaches Borislav Georgiev and Roman Tsvetkov, our national team overcame Diacono Gale (Malta) without any difficulties with 5:0 votes. In the category up to 63 kilograms, Asoto started the match a bit more passive, but gradually increased the rhythm and denied her opponent any resistance.
Thus, Mehmedova qualified for the quarterfinals and is one success away from a medal in Belgrade. She is separated from him by Sara Beram (Croatia). Their match will take place tomorrow night.
The program on April 23 includes five more matches with Bulgarian participation. Sevda Asenova (48 kg), Zlatislava Chukanova (50 kg), Venelina Poptoleva (52 kg), Stanimira Petrova (54 kg) and Svetlana Kamenova (57 kg) will fight for a place in the semi-finals and at least a bronze medal.
