2022 in the mirror
Emotions, performances, exploits, happiness, sorrows, farewells... They impressed us, they excited us, they enchanted us, our Karate champions. The tears of Kenji Grillon, the Yoko of Steven Da Costa, the farewells of Sandra Sanchez Jaime, the freshness of Yorgelis Salazar or Babacar Seck, the smile of Lev Horuna, 3 years old, at Matosinhos, the victories of Badawy or Terliuga… We just loved them. Action !
