Aman Sehrawat lost his men’s 57kg wrestling semifinal to Japan’s Rei Higuchi 10-0 at the Paris Olympics 2024 on Thursday. He will now contest in the bronze-medal match against Darian Toi Cruz of Puerto Rico on Friday.
The first-seed from Japan ended the bout by technical superiority inside the first three minutes.
Aman had beaten North Macedonia’s Vladimir Egorov by a 10-0 margin in his round of 16 bout earlier in the day before registering a 12-0 technical superiority win over Albania’s Zelimkhan Abakanov in the quarterfinal.
At the Tokyo Olympics, Ravi Kumar Dahiya had won a silver medal in the same weight class. Aman defeated Ravi at the national selection trials for the Olympic qualifiers, and eventually booked a Paris 2024 quota.
