I was hoping for a medal today but it looks unlikely now with Abedini out. it's still a long shot for Pakdaman. well, not so long, maybe... now he has to face the surprising Argentinian Di Tella (and we can't say he's not the favourite)... and if he does it, then it's a quarterfinal against France (Apithy or Anstett)...in this case he's not going to be the favourite, but still the 2 Frenchmen are among the less dangerous athletes qualified for the round of 16... for Italy, shame that Curatoli and Samele have to face each other in the round of 16...I hope that the winner can go straight to the semifinal against Szilagyi (frankly, I don't see anybody beating him once again)... pity for Montano, but he's no longer the athlete he used to be...I guess it's time to think about something new in his life...

MHSN 3,206 Posted July 21, 2017 #27 Share Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) Pakdaman in quarterfinal, now one more match to win a historical medal. PS: This is already Iran's best ever result in a World Fencing Champs in individual events (we had a 4th place finish in team event last year) Edited July 21, 2017 by MHSN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
