Montenegrin karateka Nemanja Mikulić won silver, while Nenad Dulović and Balša Vojinović in wrestling, and Vladimir Mijač in kata, finished their performance at the Senior European Championships in Yerevan with bronze medals.

Mikulić was defeated by Ernest Skaraputdinov from Russia in the final of the 75 kg category today.

The young karateka from Bijela secured the first senior European medal of his career by reaching the final.

Vojinović also won his first senior medal in the 60 kg category. The Iskra karateka defeated Kenan Šiljko from Bosnia and Herzegovina 2:1 in the match for third place.

The bronze medal went to Nenad Dulović in the 67 kg category, after he convincingly defeated Aleksandar Kapmoala from Moldova 7:0 in the match for third place.

This is his third European medal, after last year's silver in Zadar and team silver in Poreč. He also has a world silver from the championships in Budapest.

The history of Montenegrin karate was written by Vladimir Mijač, who defeated Swiss Yuki Ujihara 40,50 - 40,20 in the bronze medal match.

This is the first European individual kata medal for Montenegrin male karate since independence.

Mijač will also have the opportunity to compete for a medal in the kata team tomorrow, and the Montenegrin women's kata team will also compete for bronze.
