Meanwhile... the bronze medal match.

Burnett vs the Iranian... he's leading 4-0

D3

This Iranian didn't show anything worthwhile in these first 2 minutes

[D3 for LU]

Boy, they gave the Iranian FOREVER to try and score on that sequence.

D3

[ScottishSteel]

Bronze Burnett! No score in the later half of the match; just an extended scramble and it ends 4 - 0 for the good guys

[D3 for LU]

BUT it's a 4-0 shutout for Burnett and the bronze medal is his reward!

[D3 for LU]

He said it again... take a drink!

holy crap the announcer thought that was Uzbeks points and was so ready to gas himself up about it.

[D3 for LU]

The Japanese DID hit that move for 4points... red challenge it for 2points instead (I think)

But They Make It a 5 point throw.

AND he wins it  for Gold.

Outstanding... Never Say Die! (BS & Ozzy-RIP)

Yepper!

Iran gonna win the team race, but 3-1 so far head-to-head.    2 more to go. Probably favor Iran at 45kg and USA at 71kg.

[D3 for LU]

Onward towards the medal matches at that PREMIRE weight class... 65Kg

Point for Kikiniou

D3

[ScottishSteel]

Azerbaijan with a hard collar tie and a stern finger wag from the official but still 1 - 0 at the break

[D3 for LU]

1-0 USA at the break...

D3

[ScottishSteel]

Kinkiniou takes his turn on the clock now; nearly gets a step out but no dice - tied at 1

[D3 for LU]

Azerbaijan leads on criteria...

D3

[ScottishSteel]

Kikiniou loses 1 -1 on criteria off all passivity points . . . boooooo

[Truzzcat]

[D3 for LU]

They put Kikinou on the clock at the right time I believe but then i think you have to hit the other kid with about 40 seconds left I don't know. I guess its 2 minute periods so maybe I am asking for too much. At the end of the day I am asking for the American to win on a passive call.
