This match marked Sierra Leone’s debut in the Paris 2024 Olympics in the Women’s 57 kg Elimination Round of 16.
The encounter drew significant attention due to the notable age difference between the competitors, earning the nickname ‘Mother vs. Daughter’ clash.
Koroma, a promising young athlete, faced the seasoned Lien, who brought years of international experience to the mat.
