Korean Greco-Roman wrestling title hopeful Ryu Han-su came up short of a medal at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics on Tuesday.
Ryu lost to Rasul Chunayev of Azerbaijan 8-0 in the bronze medal match for the men's 66kg event at Carioca Arena 2.
The 2013 world champion had fallen to the third-place match after losing to Migran Arutyunyan of Armenia in the quarterfinals.
When Arutyunyan reached the final, Ryu got a reprieve and entered repechage, where he needed to win two matches for one of two bronze medals.
Ryu first defeated Adham Ahmed Saleh Kahk of Egypt. But he failed to score a point against Chunayev in the lopsided loss.
"I tried to put myself together, but I couldn't concentrate on the match," Ryu said after the loss. "I should have won a medal.
The other wrestler was better." (Yonhap)
