KAUFEN

The Summer Olympics have been taking place in Paris for several days now, with 140 Ukrainian athletes having obtained 123 licences to participate in 26 of the 32 Olympic sports. During these game days, some Ukrainians have already managed to compete. Here's a look at their results. 

Belodid leaves the Olympics

Ukrainian judoka Daria Bilodid lost to Japanese Haruka Funakubo due to disciplinary violations. 

The Ukrainian had a successful start at the Games in Paris. In the 1/16 finals, Bilodid put down Kiribati's Nehru Tibwa in 5 seconds, defeating her opponent by an ippon. 

However, in the next round, the Ukrainian had a more serious fight with Haruka Funakubo, twice a world vice-champion in the division (2022, 2023). During the fight, both athletes received a shido - a warning. As a result, the match went into extra time, where the Ukrainian lost, collecting three shidos.

Fencer Olga Kharlan has already shown a good result at the Olympics, making it to the semi-finals. Thus, the Ukrainian athlete guaranteed herself a medal fight.

In the 1/4 finals, Harlan competed against Anna Marton of Hungary. The match ended with Harlan winning with a score of 15:7.
