The arbitration influenced the defeat of Laura Vázquez

The elimination last Thursday of Laura Vázquez from Vigo from the U-20 World Cup, which is taking place these days in the Colombian city of Guayaquil, has not been without controversy. The Famu judoka, who until last Wednesday was world runner-up in the category, fell to the Brazilian Kaillany Cardoso in her first match. However, this situation was reached after Vázquez won in the first instance. Or at least for a moment.

And it is that the referees decided to reverse their own decision, which implied the victory of the Vigo player after an ippon that the judges themselves indicated. However, soon after they relented and left him in waza-ari. This controversy gave life to the Brazilian and threw Laura off center, who ended up losing the fight. Subsequently, Cardoso hung the silver in the competition

Yesterday Noelia Insua (-70 kilos) from Marines competed, also a student of Marcial Romero. She lost in the first round to Japan’s Moka Kuwagata.
