Snatch:

Huge disappointment – World champion Nadezda Evstyukhina bombed…

Tight race between Natalya Zabolotnaya & Podobedova, each setting new Olympic records.

In the end it was Natalya Zabolotnaya who snatched 131kg for a new Olympic Record on her final attempt. 4kg short of her own World Record. 1kg lead going into the Clean & Jerk.

Clean & Jerk:

Natalya Zabolotnaya with 160kg for a new Olympic Clean & Jerk and Total Record. BTW, how easy did those Jerks look?

Podobedova  would equal her total with 161kg. Lighter bodyweight  guaranteed her gold.

Kazakhstan’s Coach was pleased as always.
