Comes back spectacularly to win on technical superiority (10 pt lead over opponent). Not sure why he allowed the Iranian so many pts in the beginning.

Aman facing an Iranian in freestyle. Strange to see an Iranian in freestyle. 

 

No history shown for either in international competitions. 

In Olympics I saw one Yazedani from Iran in 86 kg category freestyle. Won Silver medal. Had an amazing gold medal match with the US wrestler Taylor David who seems to be a big name.

Yes they seem to have rivalry going on. Have produced some classic matches.

Bahrain has imported wrestlers too. From Serbia.. I guess someone tricked them about which country to buy them from. Or maybe after the athletes and the handball team they ran out of money.

Bajrang runs out the clock for a win vs Serbian Bahrainian for a facile win. Through to SF.

 

Real competition starts now. Aman up vs a Japanese wrestler in the SF. Usually would be confident for the men against the Japanese - but Aman is an unknown and he was loose vs the Iranian first up. Hope he is better this round. He has the skills.

Just looked at the recent world championships in wrestling. Not a single Indian made it past the round of 16. Shows the state of the sport atm. I guess we shouldn't expect any medals from the sport in the Olympics

We should cross the 100 medal barrier still... Doable despite pathetic display in Wrestling 

 

100 is done. 98 confirmed + 2 in chess.

 

we still have compound archery bronze, women hockey bronze, mens recurve team plus the wrestling medals.
