At the start of the match it was even, but after the score 2-2, Van Gerwin went down the slope. The finishes in particular were not good for Brabander. On the other hand, Kroos got wings and suddenly it was 9-4. Van Gerwen managed to strike back with a score of 9-7, but unfortunately that was not enough. In the end, Brabanter lost 11-8.
rising star
Two Dutch athletes receive awards at the European Athletics Gala in Switzerland. Sifran Hassan was crowned ‘European Athlete of the Year 2021’ and Fimki Ball won the European Talent of the Year award. At this summer’s Olympics, Paul won a bronze medal in the 400-meter hurdles in a European record of 52.03 seconds.
Paul was not only on the podium at the Olympic Games, but also became the first in the prestigious Diamond League. Of course he’s helped Paul with many competitions and training a lot this year. During the award ceremony, Paul recalled the final of the Summer Olympics. Here she said that during the first 300m of the race she mainly tried to keep up with her American opponents, so the last part was difficult. It wasn’t until I crossed the finish line that I realized she was third and thus earned a place on the podium.
Wout Weghorst
In the past year, Weghorst has already lost some rhetoric about the pandemic and the coronavirus vaccine. Now he’s in the news again, this time because he has coronavirus himself. Last Sunday morning he was not feeling well and was tested. The test was positive and Weghorst is currently in quarantine.
All players and staff at Vfl Wolfsberg, the club where Weghorst plays, have been tested negative. With Weghorst’s injury, he will miss the Champions League match against RB Salzburg on Wednesday.
