Good discus competition

Gerd Kanter qualified in his first throw this morning at the EC in Barcelona with a throw of 65.43m. Märt Israel qualified in his second throw with a throw of 63.99m after a first throw of 63.27m that would have been enough anyway. This was the first time for Märt to make a big championship final.

Niklas Arrhenius threw 60.25m and did not qualify but did better than he has done before in a meet like this and threw over 60m.

 

The Estonians will then throw the final tomorrow and that will be exciting. Niklas put in a good effort and his time will come in both events soon.

 

Here are some videos and pictures.
