The only finalist man we have is in +84 , not an olympic weight 

 

-84kg and +84kg are merge into the "olympic class" of +75kg...

 

and tbh, Daikhi is the only man from ALG who still have a (remote) chance to qualify to the Games at the final qualification tournament in May in Paris...

 

by the way, you also have 4 women in the finals (some of them really surprising, especially the girl of Kata)...

Gold in team kumite M , we always defeat egypt 

 

[bestmen 2,555]

disappointed by Lamya -68 , only silver , after this Gold of world games , she didn't show any success

she always fails in semi or final

[MHSN 3,168]

There were some important results for the Olympic ranking

 

Ali ElSawy lost the final which means he can't defend his 930pts from the previous continental champs. by losing something like 200pts the gap is very small between him and Vinicius Figeuira of Brazil.

 

Feryal Abdelaziz (+68kg) and Ibtisam Sadini (61kg) also improved their result from the previous edition and therefore increased their chance to grab that Afrian female quota. most probably it will be between one of those girls and Radwa Sayed who failed to improve from her silver medal in 2019 and won the silver medal once again.

 

I hope WKF acts fast again and updates the ranking today ! only 3 K1 events + European Champs left before the deadline.

and Gold for Daikhi was tough but he did it

[thepharoah 2,284]

things will never change in Africa , it's much easier to win a medal in WCH than to win a gold medal here and at the end i see that these African champs lose from the 1st match in international stage
