13:28: The morning session is rolling by. We only have five matches left and the session is done. The semifinal matches are listed above as they come in.

12:58: That was quick. Adar only needed 75 seconds to pick up the 10-0 win over Axente. She'll meet the winner of Agoro PAPAVASILEIOU (GRE)  Anastasiia OSNIACH (UKR) 

12:53: Mariya STADNIK (AZE) picked up her second win of the day, a 9-3 victory over Julie Martine SABATIE (FRA), but it wasn't in normal form. She didn't dominate and looked a little gassed after the bout.

Either way, she reached the semifinals, where she'll meet 2022 world bronze medalist Lukasiak.

Turkiye is off to a rough start today. They've had two matches, with both ending in technical superiorty losses.

11:55: Four-time Olympic medalist Mariya STADNIK (AZE) returns to the European Championships and marks it with a 14-4 win over defending champion Evin DEMIRHAN (TUR). Stadnik is gunning for her eighth Euro gold medal.

11:30: Welcome to day three of the European Championships here in Zagreb. After the repechage rounds of freestyle, we jump right into the women's wrestling.
