Head coach of the team, champion of Europe, silver medalist of World Championship, bronze medalist of the Olympic Games Gevorg Davtyan has told Mediamax Sport that he considers the tournament a success.
“I am generally pleased with the results. Gor Sahakyan took the gold in 50kg category, although he could do better in snatch. Silver medalist Mnatsakan Abrahamyan (69kg) exceeded our expectations, he didn’t lift that much in the training. Harutyun Grigoryan (77kg) was fantastic too and deserved his goal medal. Garik Karapetyan got a gold medal, so the boys worked very well in Milan,” said Davtyan.
