Singh of India lost in the final of men’s middleweight boxing competition. It
was heartbreak for Indian fans as they were assured of a medal at least form
the champion but he failed to deliver and lost pretty badly. Antony Fowler
flowered England with a total of four gold medals and making them proud. He is
the England’s team captain and belongs to Liverpool by winning his final bout.
Kudos to the champion!

4X400m final
It was a Gold medal for England as they win 4X400m
race keeping their spirits high. Matthew Hudson-Smith put up a very bold show
as he literally snatched victory from the jaws of Bahamas Chris Brown. Brown
was confident when only 30m were left in the race but Hudsen-Smith dug deep
making the anticipation of Brown in limit. Another medal was added to the tally
as England continued its domination in the games.

Langridge and Mills win Men’s Badminton Doubles
It
was just another medal for England as Langridge and Mills won a bronze medal by
beating the number one seeds who already lost the semi final match. It came as
a big surprise as they beat the number one seeds in straight sets defeating
them by 2-0 tagline. They took the second game 21-17 to beat Chris Adcock and Andy Ellis in style. Crowd was stunned as the
match went underway seeing their favorite team to lose in such a way.

10 medals in diving competition for England
England
won a scintillating tally of 10 gold medals in four days of Glasgow’14 games.
Tom Daley got the crowd going with a great performance in which he pulled off a
total score of 516.55 and snatched an incredible victory with 82.85 points. His
lead was so big that he clinched bronze medal even before his final dive. Wow!
That’s what we call dictatorship on the field. Hot favorite, the poster boy for
England did it in style.
Disappointment turned into Gold
One
wouldn’t have expected Julius Yego of Kenya to win a gold medal in the final of
Men’s Javelin throw after a disappointing show in the last edition of
Commonwealth Games but he not only put up a much better show; instead he
snatched a gold medal to his name. He credited his success to dedication, hard
work and…..hours of watching youtube videos. He figured out that his technique
was a disaster and rectified it to a great extent.
Not a chance-It’s Jamaica
Seeing the performance of English player in this
year’s edition of Commonwealth Games, they would have thought of pushing
Jamaicans till the end but no chance; Jamaicans pulled it off once more t
clinch a gold medal in Women’s 400m relay final. They beat their previous best
which lasted only for 24 hours to set a new games record at 41.83 seconds.
Nigeria stood second while the much anticipated England third.
