Asbaghi managed to survive that match though but poor guy he missed most of 2015 because of a surgery and therefore finished 7th in world ranking and missed the Olympics Achab uses his dirty tactics very often , I saw him doing it more than ten times. specially against good opponents. but that one against Asbaghi was something unbelievable.

Ketbi will miss Olympics because his weight. It is not 100% sure, but Mourad has huge chance for Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've asked on a Facebook group in Dutch where apparently Laurence Rase is also active, let's see if there'll be an answer there (ex world class taekwondo athlete for Belgium and now a main official in their federation). But still my point stands: it's not like Laachraoui has qualified because he won gold at Euro champs, as Dutch media suggested Edited May 24, 2016 by heywoodu If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, there are wild cards. No, there is no chance for Algeria because the wild cards have already been distributed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taekwondo_at_the_2016_Summer_Olympics_–_Qualification If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
