Soil texture suffering from injury Fighting spirit to repechage

Sara Dosho has been suffering since she won the gold medal in the previous tournament because she couldn't tackle her characteristics due to her injury.



I made constant efforts to get a chance to revive, but I couldn't show the result in the form of a gold medal.



"I've been aiming for a gold medal again ..."



Immediately after the defeat, Soil Texture said with tears.



The road after winning the gold medal at the Rio de Janeiro Games last time was a series of hardships.



The biggest characteristic of soil texture players is tackle.



Saori Yoshida's father's dojo has been honed since he was in elementary school, and has been evaluated as having the power of a heavyweight class and the speed of a lightweight class.



However, after the Rio de Janeiro Games, there were a series of injuries, especially in 2018 when the left shoulder was operated on and the gears started to go wrong.



I couldn't jump in as much as I could because of the fear of injury, and I couldn't get out of the trouble so much that I was wondering "How did I get into the tackle before?"



It was during the one-year period when the Olympics were postponed that triggered the recovery.



According to the advice from the coach and the players around him, he realized that he should do what he can do now without sticking to the previous tackle.



Abandoning my past style, I refined other patterns of attacks, such as not only tackling from a distance, but also counters that gradually put pressure on the opponent and attacks after breaking with kumite. ..



"When I was in Rio, I used to tackle and defeat most of my head, but now I'm thinking and wrestling."



He was enthusiastic about surpassing himself at the Rio de Janeiro Games with his new wrestling.



However, this tournament was a tough combination for the first round of the world champion, Tamyra Mariana Stockmensa of the United States, who is a candidate for victory.



Soil texture players could hardly attack themselves, received tackles from their opponents in quick succession, scored points in their ground fighting, and were overwhelmed by losing the technical fall of 0 to 10 in just over two minutes.



"I knew that I was going to come, but I felt that the opponent was more powerful than that."



It was a defeat that made me realize that it was not only the texture texture players who had been practicing.



The hope for medals has not disappeared yet, and Soil Texture players will go to the repechage on the 3rd.



"I want to do my best with the feeling that I can get back the medals



no matter

what." The

tearful eyes haven't lost their fighting spirit yet.
