A beast from team Alliance, Léo Nogueira closed out the black belt absolute at the European Jiu-Jitsu Championship with his teammate Bernardo Faria. In the ultraheavyweight division, however, there was a Danish wrecking machine standing in his way.

In the semifinals of their weight class, Alexander Trans of CheckMat academy exacted revenge for the loss he suffered to Nogueira in the absolute on Saturday.

Trans was trailing 2-0 on points from a sweep until the final 50 seconds. But the giant was stone cold and passed guard for the come-from-behind 5-2 win.

Monstro da Alliance, Léo Nogueira fechou com o companheiro Bernardo Faria o absoluto faixa-preta do Campeonato Europeu de Jiu-Jitsu. Na categoria pesadíssimo, no entanto, havia uma pedra dinamarquesa no meio do caminho.

Na semifinal do peso, Alexandrer Trans (CheckMat) devolveu a derrota para Nogueira sofrida no sábado, no absoluto.

Trans perdia a luta até os 50 segundos finais, por 2 a 0, de uma raspagem. Mas com frieza, o gigante inverteu o jogo, passou a guarda e virou a luta para 5 a 2.
