@MHSN Some good Iranian sports news to brighten up the day  

 

 

well I couldn't see the pic at first and I thought Haddadi did something. but Taftian ?! that's really surprising. everybody gave up on him after the Jakarta disaster. I assume that means the Olympic qualification. the standard was 10.05. good for him,

I don't know what these decathletes, or in this case triathletes, have eaten for breakfast, but I want it!

I know it's a mistake. It's the shot put results instead of the long jump results.

 

Mistake or not, the world decathlon record holder improving his shot put PB by over half a meter is something that makes me want to have what he had for breakfast anyway

BBC talking about Johnson-Thompson vs Thiam being such an epic fight, even though Thiam nowadays is like 5 levels above KJT  

 

Meanwhile, 6.74m long jump and yet another personal and national record for Thiam.

 

Excuse you sir, KJT won the Commonwealth Games!!

Or an excellent combination of mediocre fields (like in the 800m) and just overall really poor performances (like the men's high jump)
