Seema Bisla turns into fourth Indian feminine wrestler to qualify for Tokyo Olympics

Seema Bisla on Friday grew to become the fourth Indian girl wrestler to qualify for the Tokyo Games by reaching the ultimate of the 50kg competitors at the same time as Sumit Malik settled for a silver medal after conceding his closing bout as a result of a knee damage on the World Olympic Qualifiers.
Seema booked an Olympic berth for herself after a detailed 2-1 win over European Championship bronze medallist Anna Lukasiak of Poland, displaying large defensive expertise within the semifinal.
After gifting away a degree on passivity, Seema pulled off a fast take down within the first interval for a 2-1 lead, which she stored until the tip to earn the quota.
She will now struggle for gold in opposition to Ecuador’s Lucia Yamileth Yepez Guzman on Saturday.
