Judo: Cédric Revol on the 3rd step of the European podium

Following in the footsteps of Blandine Pont, silver medalist in the previous fight, Cédric Revol also managed to win a medal during the first day of the European Championships organized in Zagreb. The bronze in the under 60kg category, the one that Luka Mkheidze will compete in less than 100 days during the Paris Olympic Games.

Within a France B team, which only has one selected for the next Games, Cédric Revol was able to highlight himself, unlike his partner Romain Valadier Picard, eliminated as soon as he entered the fray by the Ukrainian Artem Lesiuk, only 25th in the world while the Frenchman is knocking on the doors of the global Top 10 (11th).

Fortunately, to give a little relief to the day for men's hexagonal judo (there was no representative in the -66kg category), Cédric Revol first reached the last square, where Azeri Balabay Aghayev ( 6th in the world) left him no chance. But for the bronze medal, the Frenchman managed to remobilize to... avenge Valadier Picard and dominate the Ukrainian Lesiuk on ippon.
