Bronze for taekwondo athletes from the St. Petersburg Baltic Sea Cup

1265831_10200644835665103_783470035_oUp, down, up, down…

St. Petersburg's Baltic Sea Cup is a traditional team invitational tournament, where the following team was sent this year:
58 kg Toni Lahtinen, Loviisa Taekwondo (Mustafa Yevloyev, St. Petersburg)
-68 kg Sami Lahtinen, Loviisa Taekwondo
-80 kg Juho Kostiainen, TU11
+80 Teemu Heino, TU11
Coach: Petteri Kauppinen, TU11
Physiotherapist: Juho Ranta, TU11
Technical delegate and team leader: Sampo Pajulampi, TU11

 

The first setback was felt already on Thursday, when Toni Lahtinen got a new assignment for the rest of his military service, which meant canceling his weekend vacations. The matter was investigated persistently on Friday, but even though the Defense Forces were willing to be flexible, Toni was not included.

Therefore, the young Mustafa Yevloyev from St. Petersburg came to strengthen the team, who, despite his hard effort, was clearly a weaker player than Toni.

In the first round, they faced the first team from Moscow. The whole team had a rough start, and the match ended in a draw after Mustafa and Sami lost their match. When the draw still brought the -58 kilos for the deciding match, and Mustafa couldn't find new drugs, the opening round defeat was a fact.

In the second round, St. Petersburg's second team gave up -58 and -68 kilograms due to injuries. Teemu and Juho handled their part in an exemplary manner.

1262983_10200644835225092_200613214_oThe bronze medal match took place as an 8-minute match, so that each weight class competed for one minute in two rounds. Manual scoring and flying substitutions were used.

Juho and Teemu's high percentage points in particular brought a clear victory for Finland.

So bring bronze medals and crystal drinking glasses.

At the evening banquet, we discussed cooperation and good help in both directions came about commendably.

Teemu Heino represents Finland at the World Championships

logotypeTeemu represents Finland and TU11

Taekwondo athletes 2011 are strongly represented at the World Championships. Finland's second representative is Teemu Heino in the men's +87 kg category. Another representative is Budokwa's Suvi Mikkonen.

Teemu has a tough race ahead of him, especially since the recovery from the surgery after the injury dragged out the decision to participate until the end. However, the finishing has gone reasonably well and the match style has also found new elements. At least success is not dependent on experience, as Teemu is the competitor with the longest career in value competitions in one tournament with Lopez from the USA.

Juho Ranta takes care of the athletes' well-being

The technical team includes Juho Ranta, who in his capacity as a physiotherapist treats both athletes to peak condition before the competition. Since the Finnish team is small, there are many tasks and the title of physiotherapist is quite broad.

Teemu will fight on Friday 19.7.

Every Taekwondo athlete naturally has their thumbs and big toes up when Teemu grapples. You can probably also follow the matches online, although the time difference presents its own challenges.

CONGRATULATIONS TO TEEMUS ON BEHALF OF THE ENTIRE CLUB!

Results from Spain

Spanish open taekwondo
Teemu Heino, men +87 kg
Teemu Heino – Oleg Kuznetsov (RUS) 2-5

The match was decided by the Russian's main hit point, from which the Finns picked up the Video Replay card in vain, the video referee saw the hit. After the match, Kuznetsov came to tell Teemu that he didn't think he hit, and therefore didn't earn any points either.

Kuznetsov is the reigning winner of the Spanish Open.
