Team GB fencer Aliya Itzkowitz has missed out on a place in the round of 16 in the women's individual sabre at the European Games in Baku, suffering a narrow defeat to Martyna Watora.
The 21-year-old, who won three of her four group contests to reach the knockout stage, led midway through the meeting, opening up an 8-3 lead in the opening period.
However, her opponent turned it around in the second, landing four unanswered points before connecting with a couple of late shots to secure the victory.
Watora faces compatriot Angelika Wator in the round of 16 later today.
