Paris Olympics 2024:  India got two medals on the 13th day of Paris Olympics 2024, one bronze and one silver. In this Olympics, all the fans were hoping that, like Tokyo, Neeraj Chopra, who was participating in the final of the javelin throw, would be able to win the gold medal. Still, he won the silver medal with a throw of 89.45 meters in the medal event. In this event, Neeraj made five fouls in a total of 6 attempts, but he managed to throw the javelin 89.45 meters in his second attempt. At the same time, Neeraj's first reaction on winning the silver medal has also come out in which he also talked about his injury.

Whenever I went to throw, 60-70 per cent of my focus was on my injury

Neeraj Chopra said in his statement to PTI after winning the silver medal at the Paris Olympics 2024 that 60 to 70 per cent of his attention is on the injury whenever he starts running to throw. Today, in the medal event, my run was not right, and the speed was also a bit slow. Whatever I have done, I have done it while battling this problem. I did not have time to undergo surgery; that's why I was constantly pushing myself forward.

I have lost to Arshad Nadeem for the first time.

In this weapon throw medal event, Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem won the gold medal by throwing 92.97 meters. This was also the farthest throw in the history of the Olympics. Neeraj Chopra also reacted to this throw of Arshad and said that I have been playing against Arshad since 2010 and today I have lost for the first time. This is a game and we should also accept it. As long as we have strength in our bodies, we will try to maintain Asian dominance. I have learned that your right mindset is the most important thing.
