Sushil wrestles bronze while Vijender Assures another medal

Unheralded Sushil Kumar rose from obscurity to find a place in the history of Indian sport when he won a bronze medal in men's 66kg freestyle wrestling at the Beijing. Sushil wrestled today to increase the india medal tally to 2.
Earlier Abhinav Bindra won gold medal for india .


Also later today i witnessed the astounding performance by indian boxer vijender , he has assured his place in semi-finals of the middleweight (75kg) category and atleast a bronze medal to add to the indian glory at Beijing '08 .

Vijender defeated Ecuador's Carlos Gongora 9-4 at the Workers' Gymnasium. Vijender looked indefatigable and his nimble footwork as indian tired out his opponent to win the game .
Unlike Akhil Kumar who defeated the world champion earlier this week but lost in quater final by an unexperienced boxer , he was very cool headed and played with a proper strategy to reap atleast a bronze medal from here .

We must also congratulate IOA ( Indian Olympic Association ) for giving a very good infrastructure to our indian boxers .

From this stage there could be only improvement in IOA since we have seen much messed up IOA earlier .
