Abhimanyu lost in QF to Retherford

will have to wait to see if he can get chance in repechage .

The other 3 wrestlers don’t have any chance as none of the wrestlers they lost to made SF.

Abhimanyu will fight in repechage against Akhmedov  for a place in the bronze medal match. 

[Roamingrover86 857]

Abhimanyu won his repechage & will fight for Bronze vs Andreasyan  in 70 kg (non-Olympic weight) 

 

Edit: Lost his bout

Men’s FS competition is drawing to a close , it has not just been a terrible world championships for us ( which was expected) but results in terms up qualification has not favoured us too. 
 

There could be a huge queue of top wrestlers trying to qualify from Asian qualifiers next year. 
 

The Asian qualifiers so far: 

 

57 Kg - only  ( Rest of the 4 quotas were taken by European nations) 

 

65 Kg-  Only  

 

74 Kg- Again only  ( 3 out of the  other 4 quotas were taken by Europeans & 1 by USA) 

 

86 Kg-   ,  &  ( 3 out of 5 quotas to asian countries)

This is the best weight in terms of results for Deepak Punia to get the quota in asian qualifiers. 

97 Kg - Only 

 

125 Kg- Only  ( 3 of the other 4 quotas were taken by Europeans and 1 by USA) 

 

In summary , it will be tough to even qualify wrestlers from the asian qualifiers with only 2 quotas available. One bad drawn & there wont be any chance through repechage.

Even the final & only world qualifiers will have just 3 quota places. Looking bleak for our wrestling team 

 

Let’s hope in Women’s FS even if our girls don’t get quota other Asian countries do.

Sad to see only 1 FS wrestler in medal matches and that too in a bronze medal match, that too he lost.
