Beleniuk fought in the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games

Ukrainian Greco-Roman fighter Zhan Beleniuk has reached the semifinals at the Olympic Games currently taking place in Paris. Our compatriot in the 87 kg weight category broke the resistance of Nursultan Tursinov from Uzbekistan - 7:3, losing 0:3 during the fight.

The fight was not easy for our Tokyo 2020 Olympic champion. Just like in the 1/8 finals, Beleniuk looked closely at his opponent in the first period, which resulted in a warning for passivity. The referee put the Ukrainian on the ground, which the athlete from Uzbekistan managed to take advantage of, scoring two points and taking a three-point lead.
