Third European title for Cook

by isleofman.com 4th May 2014
Aaron Cook claimed his third successive -80kg European taekwondo crown with a golden-point victory over British rival Damon Sansum in Baku, Azerbaijan.
Cook, 23, who has represented the Isle of Man since he was controversially overlooked for the London Olympics, won after the final went to an extra round.
Sansum led Cook 3-1 after the first round of their final but the pair were locked at 8-8 and 12-12 after the second and third.
That forced them to compete in an extra round and Cook came out the winner.
