On Saturday in Paris, the six-day world championship in freestyle, Greco-Roman and women's wrestling. According to the results of the competition, our freestyle wrestlers won three silver and two bronze medals in eight weight categories.

Domestic freestyle wrestling teams have been participating in the world championships since 1954. The 90s were the least productive years for the Russians: in 1993, 1994 and 1998 they had only one victory each. The 2017 World Cup in Paris was the worst in history: there was not a single victory in 63 years.

Khetik Tsabolov and Abdulrashid Sadulayev, who lost in Saturday's finals, refused to talk to journalists in the arena without delay, and therefore all questions were forwarded to the head coach of the Russian freestyle wrestlers, Dzambolat Tedeev. The mentor seemed to be in a normal mood, joked a lot and smiled.

“We have a young team that came to Paris,” Tedeev began. “It would be more correct to say, new team. We didn't bring the first train. If you noticed, last year many guys fought in other weights. In fact, they can be called debutants, and this will be true. At the same time, our rivals from the USA or Georgia brought here their first numbers, their Olympic team. Among the Rio participants, only Sadulayev is present here, and even then he is not in his weight. Of those who competed at the spring European Championships, we have only one person. There is a serious rotation going on. "

The Russian team failed to win a single gold medal at the World Wrestling Championships, which ended on Saturday in Paris. This result is the worst for Russian team at the joint world championships in freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling, which have been held since 2005.

At the World Championships in the capital of France, the Russians won five silver and five bronze medals. The freestyle wrestling team has three silver and two bronze medals, wrestlers Greco-Roman style won two silver and two bronze, the women's team won one bronze award.

Greco-Roman wrestlers Alexander Chekhirkin (up to 75 kg) and Musa Evloev (up to 98 kg) became second in their weight categories, Artem Surkov (up to 66 kg) and Stepan Maryanyan (up to 59 kg) - third. For the first time since 1953, the domestic team was left without gold medals in this type of wrestling.

The Russian women's wrestling team at the World Championships in Paris received only bronze - Valeria Lazinskaya in the weight category up to 63 kg. According to team coach Yuri Shakhmuradov, the result is clearly unsatisfactory, and the reasons for what happened are bad physical training and injuries, which is associated with problems of work in the regions.

Rio de Janeiro Olympic silver medalist Valeria Koblova and Russian champion Lyubov Ovcharova went home with injuries from the World Championships in Paris. “I take responsibility for this result,” said Shakhmuradov. “Will there be new names in our team? The team will be renewed in a year at least by half.”

The World Wrestling Championships finished in Paris. Moreover, it ended in a deafening failure for the Russian team, which showed the worst result in its history, not winning a single gold medal in 24 weight categories - only five silver and five bronze.

Such a weak performance has never happened since 1954, when the USSR team took part in the World Championship for the first time.

Greco-Roman wrestlers were the first to take to the mat. In this type of wrestling, Russian athletes won four medals: silver was taken in the category up to 98 kg and (up to 75 kg), and bronze went to the losers of their semi-finals (up to 59 kg) and (up to 66 kg).

It is worth noting that coaching staff The unexpected departure of the bronze medalist of the 2016 Olympic Games, who received a back injury a few days before the start of the World Championship, confused the cards.

In his absence, the main hopes were placed on two-time Olympic champion (up to 75 kg) and Rio 2016 gold winner Davit Chakvetadze, competing in the up to 85 kg category. However, Vlasov was eliminated from the tournament already in the opening match, and Chakvetadze lost in the semi-finals, unable to take part in the bronze medal match due to a knee injury.

Women were the next to enter the fight, considerably weakened by the absence Olympic champion London 2012 and Rio 2016 bronze medalist: both had serious injuries. As a result, the Russian women's team managed to win only one bronze out of 24 possible medals.

The award was won by Victoria Lazinskaya in the up to 63 kg category, and it is worth noting that her Turkish opponent Hafize Sahin was unable to continue the fight due to a troubling injury received in the previous fight.

One bronze medal is the third best result in the entire history of Russian women's teams since 1991.

It was worse only in 1997 and 2012, when domestic athletes were left completely without medals.

Finally, in the final part of the World Championship, freestyle wrestlers took to the mat and competed for eight sets of medals. But even in this style, Russian fans were disappointed: again, not a single gold, but a whole scattering of awards of other denominations.

Gadzhimurad Rashidov (up to 61 kg), Abdulrashid (up to 97 kg) and Khetag Tsabolov (up to 74 kg) won silver, and bronze - (up to 86 kg) and (up to 65 kg). One more bronze medal The Russian in the up to 125 kg category could hang it on his neck, but in the fight for third place he lost to Armenia.

The results of the freestyle wrestlers seem especially offensive because three athletes immediately reached the finals in their categories, but none of them won the decisive bout.

World championship debutant Rashidov lost in the fight for gold to the more experienced Azerbaijani Haji Aliyev.

“Rashidov was obliged to become the world champion, because he beat his main rivals to the finals. But due to a lack of experience in the finals, he faltered a little. Gadzhimurad took great responsibility for the result and burned out,” R-Sport quotes the head coach of the Russian freestyle wrestling team, Dzambolat Tedeev, as saying.

Olympic champion Rio 2016 Sadulayev easily reached the final in the new category up to 97 kg, but then lost to the American.

who has always competed in this weight and won his gold at the last Olympic Games in this category. Despite a successful throw at the beginning of the fight, Sadulaev allowed his opponent to equalize the score and get behind him in the end - this led to the Russian’s first defeat in four years.

The 2014 world champion Khetik Tsabolov also lost to his American opponent, the London 2012 Olympic champion. It is curious that the Russian won during the meeting with a score of 4:2 and 6:5, but in the end he gave up and lost 6:9.

“Tsabolov fought in this weight for the first time at such a big start, and he fought well. He eliminated everyone before the final in one fell swoop,” Tedeev noted. “And he could have removed Burrows as well, but he made a number of minor mistakes. It all started when he scored two points in his attack, and after that the fight went completely differently.”

As a result, in the overall team medal standings, the domestic team ended up only in 14th place. The Japanese became the undisputed leaders (6-1-2), the Americans took second place (3-3-3), and the Turks took third place (3-1-3). The freestyle coach Tedeev did not see the tragedy in this result and explained the failure of the Russians by a radical change in the composition.

“We have a young team that came to Paris. We didn't bring the first train.

If you noticed, last year many guys fought in other weights. In fact, they can be called debutants, and this will be true. At the same time, our rivals from the USA or Georgia brought here the first numbers, their Olympic team. This is the beginning of the Olympic cycle. We want to test everyone so that there is a reliable reserve. At one time, the young man came 14th at the World Championships, and a year later he won Olympic Games 2004,” quotes a specialist.

The only good news here can be that in terms of the total number of awards, the Russians were first, having won 10 medals,

but representatives of Japan and the USA shared second position in this ranking (9).

On August 25, freestyle wrestlers began competing at the World Wrestling Championships in Paris. Medals were played in weight categories up to 57, 61, 86 and 125 kg.

The Russian national team was represented by Euro 2017 bronze medalist Zaur Uguev (57 kg), 2016 European champion Gadzhimurad Rashidov (61 kg), (86 kg) and Anzor Khizriev (125 kg)

All the most interesting things about the first day of freestyle wrestling are in the review of WRESTRUS.RU.

It was the penultimate day of the World Wrestling Championships, and there was hope that the Russian anthem would finally be played at the Bercy arena in Paris (France). The freestyle wrestlers entered the action, and the main contender for gold on the first day was Gadzhimurad Rashidov. But for the day the freestyle wrestlers had only silver and bronze.

Easiest vacancy

"I think Uguev will win a medal because everyone best wrestlers the flyweight moved to 61". This opinion was expressed by many, and not only from Russia. But already in the first fight, Zaur Uguev could not get past the Indian, who subsequently lost on all counts. The American Gilman and the Japanese made it to the final of the "lightest vacancy" Takahashi - and the victory remained with the latter. Obviously, this guy will be the standard-bearer of the Japanese freestyle wrestlers for the Tokyo Olympics.

“If only he had had my bullet, he wouldn’t have made it to the finals.”

If the most meticulous expert were asked to draw the worst scenario during the draw, he would not have done it the way the Athena system did with Gadzhimurad Rashidov. The current world champion, Olympic champion, three-time European champion - and all of them one after another within one hour. Rashidov “decorated the chervonets” for the American Stieber, won in a bitter fight against the Georgian Khinchegashvili and outclassed Opan Sat, who competes for Turkey under the nickname Genghis Khan Erdogan. But in the final, Rashidov did not have enough strength - after such and such a bracket... After all, he was opposed not only by the experienced and titled Gadzhi Aliyev - he was also fresh. “If he had my bullet, he would not have reached the final,” said Gadzhimurad Rashidov at the end of the fight. And he admitted that he needed to train even more. But because of this, Russia lost its only chance for gold on the penultimate, fifth day of the World Championship... Rashidov was the only Russian finalist.

A gift from fate to Vladislav Valiev

“Luck is the strongest, Vlad, isn’t it?” said Dzambolat Tedeev after Valiev pulled out an already lost fight in the 1/8 finals with the Korean. The scoreboard showed 5:58, and Valiev managed to do a reverse belt in two seconds. It’s just that the time on the scoreboard didn’t show up - they didn’t have time to press the button at the mat leader’s table... Whether he made it in two seconds or didn’t make it in time is no longer so important, after all, Valiev’s hand was raised. After that, he defeated one of his main opponents - Rio 2016 silver medalist Kaloy Kartoev from Turkey, competing under the name Selim Yasar. But in the semifinals, Valiev could not oppose the Olympic champion from Iran Yazdanishariati. When Vlad won the small final and received bronze, he could hardly hold back his tears. He came to Paris for gold, but in this case he won’t be upset about bronze either.

"We were sitting at the breakfast table with Abdul-Rashid Sadulayev, and he told me: the rivals see Russian flag- and this is already a 50% guarantee of their destruction. Rashid told me how to win in this weight - but since I have bronze, apparently I missed something,” Vladislav Valiev smiled in the mix zone.

By the way, Alexander Gostiev, who plays for Azerbaijan, lives with Vladislav in Ossetia in the same house, but in different entrances. The Small Bronze Festival today is at the entrance of a Russian wrestler. And gold flaunts around the neck of the Iranian, who continues to lift weights and churn out victories year after year.

Performance at your level and a living example of Geno Petriashvili

“Three months ago Petriashvili beat this Turk in Europe 11:0. And what now?! Champion. Petriashvili is a beast, that’s who we should follow as an example,” said Dzambolat Tedeev after the final in heavyweight champion between Georgian Geno Petriashvili and Olympic champion from Turkey Tahoy Akgülem.

Russia has a catastrophe... At the World Championships, Anzor Khizriev fought with an ankle injury - and fought for bronze. But it was not possible to take her - Anzor lost to the “eternal” Georgian Armenian Levan Berianidze. “Khizriev performed at his best. Considering that he had an ankle injury, his performance can be considered successful. Not by the way he performed - Anzor gained experience and now knows what it’s like to fight for a World Championship medal,” said Dzambolat Tedeev, who will have a hard time in this cycle, analyzing the resource in the strands.

"Tomorrow there will be gold"

Talking about gold to Russians and everyone concerned is already scary. Tomorrow is the final day of the championship, and if not on Saturday, then never again... According to Dzambolat Tedeev, on the first day he counted on gold only in Rashidov’s weight class. Considering that the initial task was three gold, tomorrow there should be at least two. On the last day, Alan Gogaev, Magomedhabib Kadimagomedov, Khetik Tsabolov and Abdul-Rashid Sadulaev will appear on the carpet. Dzambolat Ilyich got ahead of the journalists’ questions and assured that tomorrow there will definitely be gold. Which Russian will be able to break this vicious circle?
