Our Men’s Artistic gymnasts win silver medal

A medal was won at the competitions in another gymnastics discipline included into the program of the 4th Islamic solidarity Games.

This time, our Men’s Artistic gymnasts – Murad Agharzayev, Bence Talas and Timur Bairamov grabbed the silver medal with 161,700 points, losing only to Turkish gymnasts in team competition.

Gymnasts from Turkey mounted the first step of the podium with 163,450 points, while the Iranian representatives took the 3rd place with 152,150 points.

It should be noted that Murad Agharzayev reached the finals on all apparatus, except Parallel Bars, while Timur and Bence will participate in the finals on 4 apparatus, as they have not reached the finals with Floor and Vault. However, according to the rules, only 2 gymnasts from each country are entitled to take part in the finals. Therefore, our country will be represented in decisive apparatus finals by the gymnasts, who received the highest score.
