Bilyana Dudova registered a defeat to Ukraine's Irina Kolyadenko in the quarterfinals of the 62kg freestyle wrestling category at the Olympic Games in Paris. She lost to the fourth seed from Ukraine by 3:7 points. 

The loss does not necessarily mean the end of Dudova's Olympic medal hopes. 

If Kolyadenko qualifies for the final tomorrow, August 10, it would pull the Bulgarian into the bronze medal rematch.
