The fifth place occupied by Apostle of Christ in the final of 50m. supine at the European Swimming Championships in a 25 ara pool, held in Kazan.

The Greek champion did not manage to repeat a time commensurate with the national record of the semifinal (22.87), as he finished on 23.04, but even with yesterday’s (2/11) performance he would take the same position, as the medals were judged below 22.80 .

The Russian champion emerged, confirming the predictions, the Russian Kliment Kolesnikov, who with 22.47 improved the record of matches (22.57) that he had achieved in the semifinal. The second place was taken by the Italian Michele Lamberti with 22.65 and the trio of the podium was completed by the Romanian Robert-Andrei Glinda with 22.74.

Christou will not have much time to rest, as tomorrow morning (4/11, 09:40) he starts his effort in the 100m. supine, where he also gathers several hopes of distinction. A little while earlier, Andreas Vazaios enters the battle of the European Championship, who participates in the 200m qualifiers. mixed individual, where he is the favorite to defend the title he won two years ago in Glasgow. George Spanoudakis also participates in the same race, with the -improbable- goal of qualifying for the semifinals.
