A fourth-year student of the Volga region Academy Gelyusa Galieva at the world championship among students in Elista reached the final, which lost to a rival from France. Returning to Kazan, the Vice-champion together with her father-coach Marat Galiev met with the rector of the Academy Yusup Yakubov to talk not only about sports success, but also about educational prospects.
Galieva at a meeting with the rector looked frankly upset: defeat in the final in any sport is very offensive. Yusup Yakubov, as the rector of a sports University, understands this very well. But because it is very delicately expressed his regret about the lost title, heartily congratulated Geluso with a well-deserved silver. Further in conversation it became clear that the applicant for a trip to the Olympic games-2020 from the Volga region Academy, though acts on the all-Russian tournaments for the Moscow region, besides collecting, trains much in Arsk under the leadership of the father in not the most comfortable conditions. Yusup Yakubov assured Marat Galiev and his daughter that if desired, the athlete at the Academy will be provided with all conditions for training and recovery. According to the rector, the University, the second year receiving students for training in Boxing, recently hired a specialist from Bashkiria, regularly updates the material base, acquires special Boxing equipment for classes.
After the meeting Gelyusa Galieva told about the tournament in Elista:
- I aimed at the first place, with the coach we developed tactics, but this sport is not always everything, it turns out. I, of course, primarily my fault, somewhere, unfinished... and the opponent was not present. Chose to fight dirty tactics. She clinched a lot, and then tried to hit on the head, to bend, to drop. In the ring were such a struggle, but I can't complain. This was her tactic, which she imposed on me, and from which I was not able to get out. Perhaps the judges and overlooked some points, but I do not judge this - my job is different. After the fight I was so upset that she didn't even ask what the score was lost.
It was the most difficult fight in the tournament?
- Yes, but the previous two matches were not easy. Both against the Czech rival, and from the second from Taipei fights turned out difficult. But both I won by unanimous decision of the judges.
- What's next?
- Further collecting, the international tournament in Poland as a part of the national team.
- Olympics in plans?
- Yeah. But the next year new weight categories will be approved, then we will be able to Orient how to change weight.
