Italy's Emanuele Lambertini and Andreea Mogoș each claimed their second gold medals of the International Wheelchair and Amputee Sports (IWAS) Wheelchair Fencing World Cup in São Paulo.

Lambertini pulled off victory against the odds in the men's individual A épée final versus compatriot Matteo Dei Rossi, who also lost in yesterday's sabre decider at the Brazilian Paralympic Training Centre.

The third seed eventually won 15-10 to add to his foil success on the opening day after downing Iraq's Zainulabdeen Al-Madhkhoori 15-7.

Italian Edoardo Giordan claimed the other bronze medal following a 15-14 loss to Dei Rossi in the semi-finals.

Iraq's Ammar Ali was dominant in the men's individual B épée, beating Frenchman Yohan Peter 15-4 in the gold-medal match.

The top seed also beat Italian Gianmarco Paolucci in the previous round while Peter got the better of Brazil's Jovane Guissone 15-9.

It was a rematch of the foil tournament final which saw three-time Paralympian Ali suffer a 15-12 defeat to the home favourite.

Mogoș breezed to another gold medal in Brazil as she cruised past South Korean Kwon Hyo-kyeong 15-3 in the women's individual A sabre decider following a 15-10 semi-final win against tournament favourite and Paralympic silver medallist Nino Tibilashvili of Georgia.

French athlete Brianna Vide suffered another semi-final loss to Kwon, narrowly missing out on the decider after a 15-14 loss.

The women's individual B sabre saw Georgian Irma Khetsuriani secure gold against Italy's Rossana Pasquino with a convincing 15-7 win.

Khetsuriani saw off France's Sophie Sablon 15-6 in the semi-finals while Pasquino beat double Paralympic champion Saysunee Jana of Thailand.

Khetsuriani lost in yesterday's foil final to Jana after also crashing out in the épée semi-finals to the Thai veteran.

The final day of competition is set to take place tomorrow with the open team foil, women's team épée, men's team épée and women's team sabre tournaments all scheduled.
