The second week of the Paris Olympics has begun. The previous week was marked by gold medals for Hidayat Geydarov (73 kg) and Zelim Kotsoev (100 kg), as well as Alfonso Dominguez (92 kg) reaching the final. Events are developing, and today the Greco-Roman wrestling competitions will begin.
As reported by İdman.biz, our Olympians are on a good schedule. This concerns, first of all, the quality of medals. Two victories in judo, a chance for first place in boxing and serious prospects for the precious metal wrestlers. It is noteworthy that the wrestlers will perform in the same arena as the judo wrestlers – “Field of Mars”. This location has become lucky for the masters of the flexible path, who are now passing the baton to the “classics”.
After the team judo tournament, it took the organizers just over a day to replace the tatami mats with wrestling mats and set up the platform. There is no doubt that the hall will be sold out again, especially considering its close proximity to the Eiffel Tower.
Our Greco-Roman wrestlers will be represented in five weight classes out of six possible. Murad Mamedov (60 kg), Khasrat Dzhafarov (67 kg), Sanan Suleymanov (77 kg), Rafik Guseinov (87 kg) and Sabah Shariati (130 kg) will perform in Paris, each of whom has a serious chance of winning the podium.
Also waiting is the freestyle wrestling team and the legendary Maria Stadnik, who has come to her fifth Olympics. Two silver and two bronze medals at previous Games are a serious boost to aim for gold. Yes, the current selection was difficult for Maria, but she has colossal experience, multiplied by skill.
Also soon, taekwondo athlete Gashim Magomedov will begin performing, as well as our gymnasts – Zohra Agamirova together with the group exercises team consisting of Zeynab Gummetova, Lyaman Alimuradova, Darya Sorokina, Gullu Agalarzade and Elizaveta Luzan. Anna Skidan, who is preparing for the final, will enter the hammer throw sector.
In short, there are many interesting things ahead.
