Aman Sehrawat Storms into Semifinals of Men’s 57 kg Wrestling at Paris Olympics
Aman Sehrawat has made headlines by qualifying for the semifinals in the men’s 57 kg freestyle wrestling event at the Paris 2024 Olympics. He achieved this remarkable feat after a stunning victory over Russian wrestler Abakarov Zelimkhan.
Following this win, Aman is set to face Japanese wrestler Rei Higuchi in what promises to be an exciting semifinal clash later tonight. His journey to the semifinals has been impressive, especially after his earlier win against a competitor from Macedonia.
Initially, Aman seemed to take a cautious approach in the match, similar to how he handled his previous bout. However, he quickly switched gears, delivering a spectacular single-leg takedown. Although Abakarov managed to escape, it was enough for Aman to take an early lead of 3-0.
In the second half of the match, Aman ramped up his aggression. He executed another brilliant single-leg takedown, skillfully rolling Abakarov over three times. This impressive technique led to a dominant victory by technical superiority, with the match ending in an 11-0 scoreline, prompting the umpires to declare Aman the winner.
