Our compatriots achieved historic success at the Youth Olympics

23.10.2018

The national team has 4 gold, 3 silver and 3 bronze medals. This made it possible to take 14th place in the overall report. Gleb Brusensky and Yevgeny Federov. Pre-race shots. It can be seen that the double athlete is also nervous. But the coach's flattering words and the hopes of the country seem to have given them wings.

From the first day, the group was on top and did not give up to its opponents for five days. Thus, the students of the Olympic training center achieved an unprecedented success in the history of the country.

Gleb Brusensky, champion of the Junior Olympics: - This is the result of teamwork. Yevgeny and I have been training together since childhood. We know our country very well. Thanks to that, we got ahead of our fierce rivals.

And this is Astana airport. The two athletes who did not give up before the world championship are being honored like Olympic champions. What's up? It is said that today, if a group competes among teenagers, tomorrow they will conquer the Olympic peak among adults. At this point, we tried to get the coach to speak. Because the work of these specialists is always invisible. And these are the people who sweat the most and are the most nervous when competing for a prize.

Vadim Gorbachevskiy, coach of the Olympic training center for cycling: - We started preparing for this event 2 years ago, and the management set a task that we should have at least 1 medal. At first, we wanted to be in the top three. But seeing the attitude of our boys and opponents, I understood that we should fight for the gold. So we aimed for this championship from the first day of competition.

The prize for cyclists is just one example. In the same way, our compatriots became champions in boxing, judo and rowing. Silver and bronze are mostly from these sports.

Serik Zharasbayev, Chairman of the Sports and Physical Education Affairs Committee of the RK MSM: - We believe that this is a very great result. Now, after some time, we are planning to officially award these athletes together with the National Olympic Committee and the Ministry.

Indeed, the athletes who defended the honor of the country with honor deserve any praise. In general, it was a great experience for our compatriots in Argentina. A good contribution was also made to the image of the country. Now the goal is not to fall short of this achievement in the next flag competition, which will be held in 4 years. Even if there is an opportunity, it is necessary to exceed.
