Alice of war she is vice world champion in the 78 kg, Christian Talk to yourself fifth in the 90 kg, Irene Pedrotti and Kim Polling seventh in the 70 kg. The fourth of the judo world championships was a great day for the blues Abu Dhabi with all four athletes competing today, well done to get to the end.
Alice Bellandi overwhelmed her opponents, as she always does when she’s well, ippon di o soto gari to the Ecuadorian Vanessa Chala, wazari to the always dangerous Patricia Sampaio (Por), then wazari and shido 3 with Audrey Tcheumeo and a super-ippon of o below gari on the other French Madeleine Malonga. The final was an uphill battle, with Germany’s Anna Maria Wagner very sure of herself and her position. And Alice tries to get her drunk with her rapid and explosive movements. Unfortunately she didn’t go, and in the golden score Wagner squeezed Bellandi’s neck in a ground action: ippon.
“I’m like someone who gets to the top and then falls at the best moment,” she said Alice Bellandi a few minutes after the final – I’m not presumptuous if I say that I come to these events to win, it goes without saying that I wasn’t here for this final but… I have to honor this medal and I have to improve myself to take what I left here today . Two months of work await me to return to the tatami in Paris for what I want to achieve.”
In the 90 kg Christian Parlati placed fifth with victories obtained over Vuagr Talibov (Aze) by immobilization ippon, Juyeop Han (Kor) by immobilization wazari in the golden score and, after the defeat in the quarterfinals against Caranmob Sagaipov (Lbn ), who recovered the wazari scored by the Italian, Parlati overcame the recovery with the Cuban Ivan Felipe Silva Morales by ippon. Finally, for the bronze, the Kyrgyz Erlan Sherov managed to prevail in a hand-to-hand battle initiated by the Italian himself, who is very strong in these situations.
Great seventh place achieved by Irene Pedrotti, as well as in the case of Kim Polling, both in the 70 kg. Pedrotti overcame Aleksandra Samardzic (Bih) by wazari, the Puerto Rican Maria Perez, disqualified for three sanctions, as well as Kelly Petersen Pollard (GBR), before being stopped by the Greek Elisavet Teltsidou in the quarterfinals and by the Japanese Shiho Tanaka in injury time.
Kim Polling also had a good run, defeating the Uzbek Shokhista Nazarova by wazari, the Croatian Lara Cvjetko, outgoing world vice champion, by three sanctions and then, by ippon, the Swede Ida Eriksson. Frenchwoman Marie Eve Gahie then stopped Kim Polling in the quarterfinals and Russian Madina Taimazova, third in the end, stopped her again in added time.
Italy, with one first and two second places, is third in the medal table behind Japan and Georgia. Tomorrow, the last day of individual competitions and all eyes will be on Gennaro Pirelli in the 100 kg and Asya Tavano in the +78 kg.
