European Junior Wrestling Championship came to a close in Zagreb, Croatia.
Gevorg Gharibyan (55kg) held victories over the Hungarian, Belarusian and French wrestlers. In the final he competed with Azerbaijani Sakit Guliev and had a win over him, too.
Vaghinak Minasyan (84kg) was close to winning a medal, but in the fight for the third place he fell behind Azerbaijani Fuad Aliev and didn’t win the medal.
Thus, Gevorg Gharibyan became the only Armenian athlete to win a medal in the Greco-Roman wrestling championship.
