Iranian Greco-Roman Wrestlers Win Two Golds at U-23 World

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Two Iranian Greco-Roman wrestlers claimed gold medals at the U-23 World Championships in Budapest, Hungary on Saturday.

Sports

Meysam Dalkhani and Ali Akbar Yousefi claimed two gold medals at the 63kg and 130kg respectively.

Facing 2013 Cadet World bronze medalist Levani Kavjaradze from Georgia, Dalkhani fell to a 6-2 deficit in the second period, but with less than 30 seconds left, the Iranian put the Georgian to his back with a hip toss for four points and a 6-6 lead on criteria.

Kavjaradze’s corner challenged the call, but it failed, resulting in a point for Dalkhani and securing a 7-6 win.

At 130 kg, 2019 Junior World champion Yousefi picked up his second World gold medal of the year, winning by injury default over five-time World champion Zviadi Pataridze from Georgia.

The final day of the U-23 World Championships begins Sunday.
