Irina Zaretska's silver medal at the World Games: "This medal is proof that I can do everything and more"

"I have very beautiful feelings. I feel proud of the work we have done."

Idman.biz reports that this was said by Azerbaijani karateka Irina Zaretska.

The two-time world champion appreciated the silver medal she won at the World Games held in Chengdu, China. Returning from maternity leave, Zaretska said that this medal is proof that she can do everything and more: "I am endlessly grateful to the people who walked with me on the same path and contributed to this success. I am infinitely grateful to you. You supported and encouraged me. Finally, after the competition, I can say "at mother's home". Bright fights, the best technique and new tricks - this is what I wanted to show today and what you have been waiting for for a long time. I am still hungry for victories, so there will be more."

The Olympic medalist, thanking her personal and national coaches, said that this success is the result of teamwork.

Sharing a photo with her daughter, Irina said that this moment was her dream: "Maybe I'm dreaming. Winning a competition with my baby was one of my dreams. I don't know why, but it's been in my mind for years... It's already come true."

It should be noted that Zaretska, who competed in the 68 kg category, lost to Elena Quirici (Switzerland) in the final.
