Bernard Eliminated

 

72kg American, Ali Bernard was eliminated from competition on Thursday.

Bernard lost to Sweden’s Jenny Fransson, who subsequently lost to Bulgaria’s Stanka Zlateeva 1-0, 1-0.

Ali Drops Opening Bout

72kg American, Ali Bernard, dropped her first bout today. Bernard fell to Sweden’s Jenny Frannson 3-0, 2-1.

With time winding down in the first period and scoreless, Fransson hit a headlock just before the buzzer.

Bernard scored with a head and arm in the second. But again Fransson scored at the end of the period to take the match.

Bernard had beaten Frannson in last year’s Worlds.

The odds to be drawn back in to repechage don’t look promising for Bernard, as Fransson would have to beat 5-Time World Champion, Stanka Zlateeva (BUL) next round.
