the whole start list was announced few days ago (and it was also available earlier in their "Arena" section)

that's not surprising at all. he is cutting few kilos, the time gap between the Euro Champs and Euro Qualifier is not that much. Euro Champ is still important, so wrestling one weight up (and most probably winning a medal) was the best solution.

Great news from the upcoming European Wrestling Championships in Romania. 

 

7 of 10 russian freestyle wrestlers did not get romanian visas. Uguyev and Sadulayev (participants of pro-war rally) are at the top of this 7-list.

 

Mamiashvili wanted support from UWW but it looks like they ignored him because he siad that UWW are "scoundrels" and thus "we do not communicate with them".

 

Thus russians are trying to change their roster and send second or even third numbers to Romania - those who got visas.

 

It is notable, that just a few days before Ukrainian NOC send an open letter to the IOC to get explanations: how can those russian wrestlers be allowed to compete and even get olympic licenses with so obvious proofs of their war support.

 

No public reaction is known at the moment, but it looks like UWW is not so active in defending Sadulayev and Co as it was earlier (by now). Of course, the sory continues...

I just notice that UWW become a pay-for-view only. That's sad.

There is a live scoring? I only see the results page that update at end of the match

wow. what a finish for the first day of finals. A fantastic throw from Semenov to pin the great Kayaalp. 

 

Moldova, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Komarov (SRB/RUS) won the remaining gold medals today.

Sadulaev is allowed to compete but the others are not allowed. So nobody will respresent russia in several wights

Kayaalp had 12 golds and 1 silver until today, he wanted to beat Alexander Karelin's record of 13 gold medals in Europe but in a moment of madness Semenov stopped him.

 

(technically Kayaalp has 11 Euro golds, but most sources count 2015 European Games as the European Champs too)

 

this is the famous throw.
