Day 9 Juryo Hokuseiho got beaten by Roga visiting from Makushita. Shimazuumi is sitting this one out due to Covid (as Mitakeumi). Not Enho's day. 4-5. He still needs 4 wins to positive balance in the next 6 days. Kaisei suffered another defeat, but it was a good struggle. Simple win by Ryuden. He was on the attack all along. Sharing the first place with Hiradoumi, with 7-2. Makuuchi Chiyomaru is trying to salvage the situation, but missing 5 points from salvation. Which means only one mistake from now on. No Ichiyamamoto - covid. Oho vs Takarafuji - long bout, Oho's exiting in the end. Terutsuyoshi precisely grabbed Daiamami's left leg, avoiding his open arms. Very nice. Kotoshoho did good. Held down Onoshos pushing arms, then flipped him, by the left arm. Midori's game was also decided by holding down his arms. Tobizaru vs Shimanoumi long pushypushy bout. Nice finish by Tobizaru.A quick kick on leg, then pulling his opponent down. Aoiyama got henka'd by Kotoeko. Ichinojo back to winning. I think Hoshoryu has a bad habit of pushing too much in the last push. In the past bashos Kotonowaka was always among the leading rikishis. Abi vs Shodai - First time Shodai has positive balance this basho. He caught up. Abi couldn't push him backwards enough, then channeled Abi's momentum. Where did Terunofuji bring it back from! Very nice. After that Endo did not have a chance, and for that he had to literally jump at Teru. So now there is a bunch of 7-2s, and three 6-3 rikishis. And good names with 5-4 balance. And 6 days remaining so speculation is useless.
