Judo: Gabriella Willems at the Euro? A burst of brilliance and then gone!
After easily defeating the Tajik Odinaeva (23 years old/nc), Gaby was opposed to the Austrian Polleres (26 years old/n°5), seeded n°1. A judoka that our compatriot had already met five times, resulting in five defeats.
And Polleres confirmed his supremacy, making a mid-fight move that Gaby couldn’t anticipate. Far from being discouraged, she tried to reverse the situation, but the Austrian, bronze medalist at the 2023 World Cup, managed until the end.
With the early eliminations of Lois Petit in -48 kg and Amber Ryheul in -52 kg on Friday, the Belgian results are not very bright. Only Mina Libeer, in -57 kg, managed to collect a few precious points in the race for Olympic qualification by finishing just off the podium. In the meantime, of course, Sami Chouchi in -90 kg and Toma Nikiforov in -100 kg this Sunday…
Judo: Mina Libeer for a Grand Slam bronze medal!
