The performance of the Azerbaijan national taekwondo team at the World Championship held in the People's Republic of China has ended.
Idman.Biz reports that the last member of our team to compete was Javad Aghayev (74 kg). He lost to an Iranian taekwondo practitioner in the second fight – the 1/16 finals stage.
Thus, our team finished the competition with only one bronze medal. Gashim Magomedov, who competed in the 58 kg weight category, achieved this success.
Recall that the Azerbaijani national team was represented by nine athletes at this competition under the leadership of head coach Mammad Abdullayev: Bahruz Guluzade (54 kg), Gashim Magomedov (58 kg), Fuad Tahmazov (63 kg), Riad Shiraliyev (68 kg), Javad Aghayev (74 kg), Taleh Suleymanov (80 kg), Eltaj Gafarov (87 kg), Minaya Akbarova (46 kg) and Samarrukh Osmanova (49 kg).
