Day 13

Juryo
Yago's brow got burst.
Whew, big pushypushy fight, Tochimari vs Tokushoryu.
Chiyonokuni vs Kotokuzan. Gyoji definitely lost this bout. Maybe Chiyonokuni gets 2 points?
Asanowaka good henka. Gonoyama has his 8 point anyway.
No Daishoho. Kaisei is getting a point out of mercy.
Atamifuji saved it, and turned it on Kagayaki.
Enho needs every points. And got one today.
Ryuden vs Hokuseiho. 10-2 vs 9-3. The two topmost players. On paper Ryuden should win. He got almost beaten soon, put out of the circle. Then deadlocked for long. Ryuden got hold well by Hokuseiho, but pushing him back little by little he won.
Now, if Ryuden loses both remaing bouts, and either Hokuseiho or Chiyosakae or both won theirs, would mean playoffs. But just one more win by Ryuden will secure his yusho.


Makuuchi
> Christian munk
Teru takes his dance very seriously. Not complaining.
Tsurugisho is out.
Oho could secure his place in Makuuchi with a win now. Terutsuyoshi however is a tricky opponent. Went for the leg now too, but Oho was ready, and handled him well. He stays for sure.
Midorifuji also had his 8th win. Danced on the rice bales. Very nice. 
Chiyoshoma big henka.
Tobizaru is gone for the rest. Nishikifuji 9-4
Daiamami too.
Endo as well.
Shiieeet. And Tamawashi.
Nishikigi. Does this list never end? Important Ichinojo's getting one free point means 11-2 balance. Teru has to win to keep up
All Covid. All those people bought the ticket for watching nothing.
Hokutofuji vs Abi - potentially a good bout. Meh, Abi win easily and quick. Wasn't even spectacular or anything. His usual shtick, first push, then pull a bit as the opponent pushes himself forward, and let him fall.
Hoshoryu vs Wakamotoharu - Staring game, Hoshoryu always does this. I don't like it. He needs to be humiliated more. Not today tho.
Daieisho is out. He had bout with Teru yesterday. Will this mean Teru is out tomorrow?
Ozeki battle. Not so good tachi-ai. Takakeisho gained one point allowing him to stay in the race for the yusho.
Terunofuji vs Wakatakakage - Relatively rare oshidashi win by Teru. It's good he changes it up time to times.
So Teru, Ichinojo, Takakeisho is in the race. But it became important question, who will remain to see the end of the tournament? By this rate if Teru and Granma goes missing tomorrow, Myogiryu can also have a chance, not Nishikifuji because he is in the same beya a Teru, so if he is missing the other as well.
