Sarah Hildebrandt-Yusneylys Guzman wrestling livestream: How to watch gold medal match, TV, schedule

Sarah Hildebrandt faces off against Yusneylys Guzman in a wrestling gold medal match this afternoon. Fans can watch the bout live on Peacock at 12:50 p.m. CT. The event will be rebroadcasted at 4:15 p.m. CT on USA Network, which can be accessed for free online by using the free trials offered by Fubo TV and DirecTV Stream.

Hildebrandt will represent Team USA in the gold medal match this afternoon, as she won three matches to reach the final. The American began her Olympic run with a dominant 10-0 win against Algeria’s Ibtissem Doudou. Team USA’s wrestler had a much closer match in the quarterfinal round, as she escaped with a 7-4 victory against China’s Feng Ziqi.

Hildebrandt reached the gold medal match following an incredible performance in the semifinal round, defeating Mongolia’s Dolgorjavyn Otgonjargal 5-0. Notably, Hildebrandt has displayed incredible defense throughout her Olympic journey, so she will be tough to beat this afternoon.

The American wrestler was supposed to fight India’s Vinesh Phogat in the gold medal match today, but Phogat was disqualified from the tournament because she did not meet the weight requirement. Due to the rules, Phogat will not receive an Olympic medal this year, even though she won three matches with the correct weight. The heartbreaking disqualification will let Phogat’s semifinal opponent Yusneylys Guzman fight for gold this afternoon.

Guzman began the Olympic competition with a close 7-6 win against Turkiye in the Round of 16. She followed up that performance with an impressive 10-0 victory in the quarterfinal round. However, she could not get past Phogat’s strong defensive play in the semifinal match, losing 5-0 in the bout. With this in mind, Guzman must perform better offensively to defeat the American wrestler today.

Fans can watch this gold medal event live by utilizing Peacock. Alternatively, the rebroadcast will be available for free online via the free trials offered by Fubo TV and DirecTV Stream.
