Tcheumeo shows power in Abu Dhabi
Fance celebrated the victory for Audrey Tcheumeo at the Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi. With both hands perfectly positioned on her opponent's judogi, and with the capacity of imposing the rhythm, nobody seemed capable of stopping French Audrey Tcheumeo. And for sure, Natalie Powell (GBR), despite very good preliminary rounds, was not the one to subdue Tcheumeo who added one more title to her prize list.
A superb sumi-gaeshi produced ippon and concluded the competition day of the wonen's -78kg weight category.
The two bronze medal were won by the two Russian competitors, Anastasiya Dmitrieva (RUS) eliminating the Brazilian Samanta Soares by yuko, and Alena Kachorovskaya (RUS) throwing two times Ivana Maranic (CRO) for Waza-ari.
Former world Champion and London 2012 Olympic bronze medallist, Audrey Tcheumeo (FRA), always impresses with her power and once again, she was able to enter the final of the category after having won against Samanta Soares (BRA) by waza-ari and Ivana Maranic (CRO) by ippon.
