Szubarczyk suffered a defeat in the U-16 quarterfinal, falling to Nicolas Leclercq of Hungary. The match concluded shortly after 1:00 AM local time, a scheduling detail the Polish competitor expressed his displeasure with.
“Not every match or tournament will be a perfect performance… It’s definitely easier to sleep at 1 AM than to play. I’ll depart the rest of my thoughts to myself,” Szubarczyk later wrote on his social media channels.

Despite the setback, Szubarczyk remains a force in the U-18 competition. On Wednesday evening, he defeated Iustin Scripeia to secure his place in the semifinals. He then powered through to the final with a dominant 4:1 victory over Matwiej Łagodziński of Ukraine on Thursday!
Szubarczyk will now face Vladislav Grădinar of Moldova in the championship match. The 17-year-old sensation claimed the European title in the U-16 category in March 2024 and made his debut at the World Championships later that same year.
