Vinesh fails to qualify for Olympics final
Vinesh Phogat won the semi-final 5-0. She didn't give up a single match. At that time, Vinesh's body language was telling every Indian, 'Prepare, I will bring a gold medal'. So almost every Indian felt that Vinesh would bring gold. Vinesh became the first Indian woman wrestler to qualify for the Olympics. However, the weight of 150 grams proved to be too much for Vinesh and she was disqualified from the gold medal match. She wanted to fight, but she was disqualified before reaching the field. After that, I was very disappointed. Now female wrestler Sakshi Malik has written a post for her.
What is Sakshi Malik's post?
You have not lost alone, you have lost every girl in India for whom you fought and won. Your decision to retire is India's loss. The whole country is with you today. Salute to your struggle as a wrestler. Sakshi Malik posted this for Vinesh.
Sakshi Malik had also expressed her disappointment when Vinesh was disqualified. She also wrote an emotional post for him. For a wrestler, losing weight is like winning a medal. And what about losing a medal? "I can understand what he's feeling," she said. She also demanded a silver medal for Vinesh. However, the very next day, Vinesh announced her retirement from wrestling.
