Nigerian wrestling dynamite, Odunayo Adekuoroye, has claimed
Nigeria’s sixth gold at the 2022 ongoing Commonwealth Games in Birmingham on
Friday.
Adekuoroye won the gold in the Women’s 57kg Freestyle
Wrestling after beating Anshu Malik of India.
The 2018 Commonwealth champion defeated her opponent 6-4 in
the final to successfully defend the crown she won in Gold Coast four years
ago.
En route to the final, the reigning African champion
defeated Canada’s Hannah Taylor in the semis in a swashbuckling 10-0 victory.
The win further increases Nigeria’s gold medals so far to
six, two silver and five bronze medals
