looking at the Greco brackets (tomorrow competitions) I expect Egypt to qualify a full team (they already have one) I can't see any of them in danger of losing the quota. but accident happens sometimes.

 

TUN and ALG are next best countries in Greco but in some weights they are in the same half as Egypt. I think all 12 qualified wrestlers will be from these 3 countries. but I hope to see some surprises

click on the same link I posted earlier . it's always like that for UWW events

Four Oceania nations are competing in men's -67kg Greco-Roman and they all ended up on the same half of the bracket. Algeria likely wins the quota though.

I see lots of wrestlers registered for both Greco and FS competitions and some of them simply just withdrew ! they probably tried their chance to see if they get a super easy draw in Greco (and withdrew when they didn't)

 

only 3 wrestlers are actually competing at 130kg (4 registered, 3 of them are in freestyle too, 1 withdrew) 

 

first surprise of the day and probably the biggest one. Mohammad El Sayed the only Olympic medalist in this competition just lost to  Nasr, and it wasn't just an accident, the Tunisian guy really deserved it
