The "Good Luck Beijing" 2007 Junior World Wrestling Championships concluded today as traditional powerhouse Russia stood at first in the medals tally with stable performance. China made history by winning the women's freestyle team gold.

Men's Greco-Roman: Russia defends fame

Among the 24 golds offered in the men's Greco-Roman, freestyle and the women's freestyle events, Russia collected 7 golds, 6 silvers and 1 bronze.

China settled for the second place with 3 golds, 3 silvers and 3 bronzes.

Turkey was the biggest winner on the first day. Defending champions Russia had no wrestlers entering the men's Greco-Roman 50kg, 74kg and 96kg. The only Russian into the final was beaten by a Turkish wrestler in the 60kg event.

Turkey played strong on that day to win the gold in the 60kg and 96kg events while Armenia earned the title in the 74kg and Iran captured the 50kg gold.

Russia then burst on the second day to grab its first gold of the championships in the 66kg and gained the 120kg title via Farniev's fabulous performance in the final.

Kazakstan and Iran also showed their potentials in the sport as Iran won two golds and Kazakstan finished second in the team event.

China only had Wan Feilong taking the 55kg silver. Armenia, Bulgaria and Azerbaijan each sent several wrestlers into the finals while Turkey was ousted from the team top three of the championships.

Women's freestyle: China outshines

Chinese women wrestlers came from nowhere to claim 3 golds, 2 silvers and 2 bronzes in the eight women's freestyle classes, beating defending champions Russia into second in the team event.

Russia did well on the first day, winning golds in the 44kg and 67kg but China turned the table on the second day as they beat the Russians in the 55kg and 72kg finals.

Despite sitting out the 2006 World Junior Championships in Guatemala, the newly formed Chinese team showcased its competitiveness in Beijing.

Team runners-up of last year's event, Japan was perplexed this time. On the first day, all the Japanese were defeated in the group matches while the only Japanese finalist on the second day lost to a Swedish in the 48kg event.

China won the team gold with Russia finishing second and Ukraine third.

Men's freestyle: Russia's reign unshakable

The opening day of the men's freestyle events witnessed the chaos with four countries taking four golds as defending champions Russia only managed to seize one title, same to Iran and Ukraine.

But the Russian strongmen found their form soon as they gained 2 golds and 1 silver in second day's competitions.

Iran won the second place with Turkey replacing Ukraine to end in third.

Host China still lagged behind in men's freestyle, earning 1 bronze in the 120kg.

The next World Junior Championships will be held in Istanbul, Turkey.
