In the second bout, the team's best female fighters took to the sand at Larnaca in Cyprus.

Tatyana Zenchenko breezed past Ukraine's Veronika Kratiuk as she won the duel in 45 seconds to double the RSF's lead.

Next up for Ukraine was Vadim Skripal as his country desperately needed a win if it was to have a chance of winning gold.

However, Maksim Ivanov was even quicker than his previous team mate as he secured the victory in 40 seconds.

This meant that the RSF would be crowned champions after delivering a whitewash to Ukraine in the best of five competition.
