- Published
Great Britain's Aaliyah Powell won bronze in the -62kg category at the World Taekwondo Championships in Guadalajara, Mexico.
Powell was denied a place in the final when she was defeated by Belgium's Sarah Chaari despite starting well.
The 20-year-old raced into a 3-0 lead but eventually lost 12-6.
Chaari took the gold medal by beating Greece's Theopoula Sarvanaki, who reached the final with a victory against Feruza Sadikova.
There was no third-place match between Powell and Uzbekistan's Sadikova - instead, both losers from the semi-finals took bronze.
