Officials of Georgian sport and wrestling specialists were looking semi—final match of Manuchar Tskhadaia from press-boxes. Mukhra Vakhtangadze world and bronze medal winner at Sidney Olympic Games 200 was among them. Due to Tskhadaia’s failure each Georgian as well as he was surprised and disappointed.

 “I have seen matches of Manuchar Tskhadaia many times and he has never wrestled as badly as he did in this match. I cannot say what it the reason, but to my mind, there are several reasons. He was not standing in a stable way, supposedly it caused losing weight. He seemed to be relaxed. Unfortunately he finished the matches in logical way”- Mukhran Vakhtangadze stated to “World Sport”.

Veteran wrestler also commented yesterday’s unfair umpiring:

 “I have been watching how guys are oppressed for two days and I am shocked.  Yesterday everyone saw what happened to Gegeshidze in semi-final and even during the fighting for the third place. Thanks god that I achieved my goal in this kind of sport and I am not in this dirtiness”- stated Vakhtangadze.
