Evangelia Plataniotis and Sofia Malkogeorgou were cleared on appeal due to their initially low scores, and as a result they climbed five places in the rankings and their medal hopes were revived.

After their initial low rating in the technical duet, Evangelia Platanioti stated that she would file an objection with Sofia Malkogeorgiou, due to an error in the evaluation of the program by the judges.

After a few hours, the Greek duo’s request was examined, and the justification came, the smile returned, and so did the hopes of excellence after the scissors were closed on the medal area.

210.9384 from the first class became 250.4584 and the 13th place turned into the eighth place, while the distance to the third Netherlands is about 14 thousand points, which is the difference covered by the free pair that will be held on Saturday evening (8/10, 20:30).
