India's Ravinder Khatri lost to Hungary's Viktor Lorinccz in their round of 16 match in the men's Greco-Roman 85 kg wrestling event. The contest did not last long and the Khatri was completely outclassed, losing 0-9. Khatri can still be in contention for a medal through the repechage if Lorincz goes on to enter the finals.
The scoreline though, virtually signals the end of Khatri's participation in the games. The Haryana wrestler was at sea right from the word go. Lorincz is one of the athletes tipped to go all the way.
