The statements of Freedom Pleurito
“Our joy is indescribable, I am very happy and proud of my team we have managed one of the biggest awards in a team sport after the Olympic medal and is just the beginning. We have seen great support from the world, but it would be good for the athletes in general to remember them and when there are no such discrimination. Athletes have a difficult daily life and we have seen this support many times without any distinction. We need it.
The gold medal right now means everything to me. I can’t describe it, we’re at the top of the world. After the Olympics is the biggest distinction, our team has done something huge that has been repeated in 2011. We are the only team with two gold and we want this to be the beginning. Very important how many were seeing our final, we were moved. Especially when we climbed to the highest step of the podium with the flag of Greece is the shudder you feel, it is indescribable and we are happy.
I don’t look at that in the first game we lost to Hungary, it was a premiere game and I didn’t see the final as a rematch. I wanted to see what we can do because this team and this set were first found in the big final and we responded to 100%. We were a leading team throughout the final.
The next goal is the next event, namely the European time. It was a great success that we got two back-to-back gold in the World Cup and Championship. I hope we continue this way with discrimination. “
