"I was expecting a gold medal from myself."
Idman.biz reports that this was stated by Azerbaijani badminton player Leyla Jamalzade, who won a silver medal at the III CIS Games.
She said that she could not win a gold medal due to technical errors and injury: "Unfortunately, I lost in the final. I was competing for the first place. However, reaching this stage is also considered a great success. My Russian opponent Marina Tarasova was very strong. Although I was not behind her and was resisting."
It should be noted that the Azerbaijani national team finished the tournament with a total of 7 medals, 6 bronze and 1 silver.
