Entries are out.

Plenty of Russian and Belorussians competing. Pizzolato is there. Armenian men's team is well represented.

All results as expected so far.
Ozbek clearing the field, pretty easily. Dimov much better at 65.

Good battle between Sterckx and Cambei. Cambei is still quite light, Sterckx clutch lift ultimately for the win. Sterckx seems to be in the highly unenviable position of being more competitive, and unhealthier, at lighter bodyweight categories despite her tall frame.

Good results in OG classes, but poor in non-OG. (so far)

edit: I take that back

Russia won, but with low totals. Seems like M75 will be INA vs PRK for the next two years. CHN at least had a 200 clean...

Also, AIN (BLR) and AIN (RUS) is annoying.

Also, also, earlier the scoreboard had Girls instead of Women for all categories which was only a little bit disrespectful.

Ficco 6/6 is a welcome surprise

Inevitable, really. Europe's decline in weightlifting has been ongoing for some time
