Is there a team score. What are the placings so far for both teams.

UWW site: https://uww.org/event/u17-world-championships-0/brackets

Go to the Team Rankings... but there's a time lag in putting up those scores.

Iran was leading at the start of the medal round... but w/ two consecutive golds by USA, should have them in the lead.

Looks like it is 120 Iran . 114 USA.

Keep in mind...Iran has one more wrestler left in this round than USA.

(Though, 60Kg bronze bout Iran is down 9-0 to the Kazak wrestler... )

Iran is now 2-5 in medal matches.

Georgian kid at 92 is terrible. USA will get bronze.

Alizadeh should get gold not sure if it comes down to 71 or if Iran wins regardless.

I think iran has to just win 1 match

[D3 for LU]

Meanwhile... Canada was winning 4-2 in the waning seconds until Azerbaijan got that 2 to take it via criteria.

Damn... and the Azerbaijani was a tall skinny 60Kg as well!

[Truzzcat]

Watched Irans 60 kg guy in the semis as well as third place. Very good wrestler but absolutely zero mental fortitude. Could be very dangerous if he gets with a sports psychologist.

Whistles blowing can mean only one thing... some refs are retiring.

If James wins at 71kg (which I expect him to) and Alizadeh wins at 92kg (which I expect him to), then Iran will win team title 155 to 149. Iran has effectively locked up the team title regardless of the remaining match outcomes.

On a side note, I remember Iran folks giving us grief on these boards for winning 2024 U20 team title with only one gold medalist (Lilledahl), which Iran is now about to do here at cadets. Can't have it both ways!

The difference is that Iran scoring w/ one more wrestler... they were shut out of one wt while USA had two wts that went zero point zilch .

even if they get silver at 92 its 150-149 best case for USA right?

correct.

NOT Correct. sorry. I forgot to add Bassett's points. 

We can still win, but we need wins at 71 and 92, AND for Iran to lose gold medal match. That's asking a lot. If Iran wins gold at 92, we lose 155 to 154
