PaiN_KiLLeR Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Fantastic day today for India. Susheel Kumar wins Bronze in Freestyle Wrestling. And Vijender has won his QF match completely outclassing his Ecuadorian opponent. He is now assured ATLEAST a Bronze medal, but he looks capable enough to win the Gold. His next match will be on Friday against a Cuban who is ranked among the top 3 in the World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varun Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Oh well, a bronze it is. Valiant attempt at the end by Vijender to come back, but coudn't make it. Loses 8-5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umpire Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 round 3 was the killer for him. The cuban was on defense and was counter attacking. Vijendra was clueless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suraj Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 oh well! But well done Vijender- these 3 medal winners & Sania Nehwal have opened the door; lets see how we capitalise now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Predator_05 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Almost impossible to beat the Cubans at their own game. They own Olympic boxing. Vij did very well to get this far and he has a bright future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
