got off to a slow start in her bout against Slovakia’s Ozer Gizem before pulling away and winning the quarter-final 5-2 on the judges’ cards. Although the Irish Olympic champion won the first round, it came by split decision with two of the five judges giving it to Gizem.
But Harrington came out in the second round with much more aggression and boxing at a higher tempo to win the round on all five cards.

Harrington finished with poise and stayed clear of danger to make it safely through to the semi-finals.Shannon Sweeney also won her light flyweight bout against Spain’s Laura Fuertes Fernandez, with Niamh Fay getting a walkover against Stanmira Petrova to also advance up the podium with semi-final bouts to come.
