Alperen Berber (TUR) vs Ismayil Rzayev (AZE) - Final // U17 World Championships 2022

Berber faced European silver medalist Ismayil Rzayev (AZE) in the 80kg final and scored a come-from-behind 3-2 win to claim the gold. He got himself into trouble by trying an arm spin which resulted in Rzayev putting Berber’s back on the mat for a pin. While he survived that, Berber then scored a pushout. Rzayev held 2-2 criteria despite Berber scoring a stepout before the end of the first period. But it was the passivity call in the second period that hurt Rzayev and gave Berber a deserved win. Berber, who finished fifth at the European Championships, outscored his opponents 31-2 over five bouts. #WrestleRome UWW Official website : Don’t miss a move :
