The Croatia (Zagreb) Open Ranking Series Tournament

[nhs67]

Another Takedown for Turkey... he is just doing the same thing over and over.  Underhook, cross-body ankle pick.  It's there every time.

9-2 Turkey with 2M to go.

[nhs67]

Richards with a head and arm four pointer... 9-6... Turkey pops out the back and it's 10-6 with 1m45s to go.

[nhs67]

Turkey is challenging the four pointer.

[nhs67]

10-4 Turkey with 1m45s to go... challenge won.

 

[nhs67]

Richards now with a challenge after a four pointer is called for Turkey to make it 14-4.

So it's 15-4 for Turkey or something else... not really sure.  Zane was pointing a the mat.

I think he is looking for a stepout, to make it 10-5.

[nhs67]

Challenge won.

10-5 Turkey with 1m24s to go.

This match is fantastic.

[nhs67]

Zane in deep on a shot.  Gets hipped in to on a front head pinch... no points for either.  58s to go.

[nhs67]

One point on the stepout for Zane... the Turkey gent tried another cartwheel four pointer on the edge.  In deep...

1 point blue again.  20 seconds to go.  10-7 Turkey.

[nhs67]

Red challenge now.  It will either be 10-8 or 11-7... challenging who hit first on the stepout.  It looked like the gentleman from Turkey stepped out... but it was close.

[nhs67]

10-8 with 24s to go.  Challenge lost.

[nhs67]

Zane tries a head and arm with 5s to go and misses... Turkey does a lift at the end there for a nice/mean little four pointer.  Should win it 16-7.

[nhs67]

Not sure what Zane is challenging here.

  17-7 Tech loss for Zane after challenge failed.

[nhs67]

That match was absolutely bonkers.

[nhs67]

Dean is actually on Mat C right now and down 2-0... the gent from Azerbaijan is almost out of blood time, it seems.

[nhs67]

McKenna up on Mat A right now.

[ILLINIWrestlingBlog]

Zane got pushed around. Out-muscled. All the challenges helped the Turkyie guy's gas tank, but need to work on defending the underhook and (from the previous match) handling the seatbelt position. Thought Zane had a shot at a couple of four pointers during the match, but it wasn't to be. 

[nhs67]

Dean is down 4-0 with 2M to go in the match.

[nhs67]

The winner here faces Marsteller.

[nhs67]

What happens when he is out of blood time?

[nhs67]

1m20s to go and Dean i sstill down 4-0.

[nhs67]

Dean down 4-3 with 40S to go... got a stepout with a C1.

[nhs67]

Dean is so gassed right here... what the hell was that.  He tried to do a weak chest wrap and pulled him on to him for four points... now down 8-3.  The Azerbaijan guy hasn't tried to wrestle in five minutes of match time and he gave him the match there.

[nhs67]

Marsteller is going to eat that guy up if he even takes the mat for the Bronze medal match.

[nhs67]

McKenna is down 3-2 in the 2nd with 2M remaining... French (Russo) guy is on blood time as well.

[nhs67]

The winner here faces Rivera for Bronze later today.
