Радик Исаев принес первое золото сборной Азербайджана на Олимпийских играх в Рио

Азербайджан наконец-то завоевал свою первую золотую медаль на летних Олимпийских играх в Рио.

Азербайджанский борец по тхэквондо Радик Исаев победил Абдулразака Иссуфу из Нигера со счетом 6:2 и выиграл золото в категорий среди мужчин более 80кг.

Радик Исаев также стал первым азербайджанским тхэквондистом, завоевавшим олимпийское золото в этом виде спорта.

Бронзовые медали достались спортсмену из Южной Кореи Донгмином Ча и Махама Чо из Великобритании.

В целом за всю историю участия Азербайджана в Олимпийских играх в качестве независимого государства после распада СССР в 1991 году это золото, завоеванное Исаевым, стало 15 золотой медалью страны. В Азербайджане любители спорта ждали этого золото долго, так что победу Исаева встретили очень радостно.

До сих пор на играх в Рио Азербайджан помимо золото завоевал четыре серебряные и десять бронзовых медалей.
