Nathan was doing very well and had a total advantage in the fight against Bozteke, in which the score was 6 to 2, but he began to feel some pain in his left leg and his performance only got worse as the fight went on. Finally, he saw the result gradually reverse itself and the Turkish fighter tied it with two minutes left in the fight.
In the final stretch, with 36 seconds remaining, the Brazilian took another blow to his vest, which made him fall to the ground and suffered even more damage to his leg. Even with pain, he continued to fight hard, but it was not enough to avoid the comeback and he ended up losing 10 to 6 in the dispute. Nathan left the mat in tears while being carried away by the Brazilian medical team. If he had been able to, he would have faced the Moroccan Ayoub Adouchi this Friday (30) at 3:50 pm (Brasília time) for third place on the podium.
Brazil's performance in taekwondo
Despite Torquato's defeat, Ana Carolina Moura from Minas Gerais won the fight against Frenchwoman Djelika Diallo by 13 to 7 and was awarded the gold medal this Friday (30) in the up to 65 kg category. Another winner was Silvana Fernandes from Paraíba, who won the bronze in the up to 57 kg duel against Kazakhstan's Kamilya Dosmalova by 28 to 3.
