2023 Zagreb Open rankings tourney thread

[LJB]

i feel like i really should have paid some attention to that 92 final...

 

[GeneYus]

Maisuradze had nothing for Moore. Not sure why GEO won the challenge. Looked a clear TD for Moore.

[LJB]

the call was a step out...

there is absolutely no way from the camera angle a viewer could legitimately argue the end result of the challenge...

Bwahahahahahaha....

[LJB]

it was actually super high wrestling IQ from the goergian coming up from being grounded to get that step out...

he stays on his knees they stay in par terre and the step out is nullified...

if he did that consciously then i tip my cap...

 

didn't change the end result, but, it is a wrinkle that should be noted...

55 Mason Loses 4-1

79 Marstellar gets a FF for Bronze.

Moore wrestled well.

Not much activity between Snyder and the U23 WC Azarpira from Iran.  1-0 at the break.

[MPhillips]

97 SNYDER (USA) beats AZARPIRA (IRI) 3-0 GOLD.

[LJB]

the simulation proves it is still in effect when we get to see another grounded mental mistake that robs us of what could have been a really interesting last minute...

azapira can take away a lot from that match...
