phelps 6,536 Posted November 6, 2018 Author #53 Share Posted November 6, 2018 and Nishevci won... so, another guy with strong reputation like the Algerian has gone...pool 3 is a question between ITA and the winner of RUS vs KOS (and I didn't really expect Marino to go this far...even if I must admit he's got the easiest draw among all the Italians)... in pool 4 Yamanoglu (TUR) is now waiting for Ganjzadeh or Brian Irr (USA...wow! a USA vs Iran match is awaiting us also in karate, after all the battles we saw at the Wrestling Worlds)...

phelps 6,536 Posted November 6, 2018 Author #54 Share Posted November 6, 2018 pool 1 final is between the expected Horne (GER) and Andjelo Kvesic (CRO) meanwhile pool 2 final is between Babacar Seck Sakho (ESP) and the surprising Yousef Mohammad (KUW)...

phelps 6,536 Posted November 6, 2018 Author #57 Share Posted November 6, 2018 what a scare for Ganjzadeh (IRI) against Irr (USA)...he was 4-2 down with only 28 seconds to go...then he finally found an ippon that turned things around and he also added a final yuko to close the bout... in the meantime, local hero Babacar Seck Sakho is the first pool winner and therefore he's through to the semifinals...

MHSN 3,047 Posted November 6, 2018 #58 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Abbasali out in the first round that was re-match of 2014 World Champions final and once again she lost to the Egyptian girl. almost the worst possible draw for the first match (only Uekusa could be worse than this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phelps 6,536 Posted November 6, 2018 Author #59 Share Posted November 6, 2018 and Ferracuti wins her bout against Rodrigues (BRA) with more troubles than expected...now she's ready to go against Florentin (FRA) in a classic ITA vs FRA battle...
