In a message, the Leader expressed gratitude to the athletes, coaches, and managers, praising their hard work and determination which brought joy to the Iranian people and honor to the nation.
The message reads: “I congratulate the young champions of Greco-Roman wrestling. Your firm resolve and hard effort, along with your brothers in freestyle wrestling, made the nation happy and brought dignity to the country. I pray to Almighty God for your continued success and victory, and I extend my appreciation to the athletes, coaches, and managers.”
Iran’s Greco-Roman wrestling team climbed to the top of the world podium for the second time in history—and the first in 11 years—after a dominant performance in Zagreb. This achievement marks a historic milestone, as for the first time ever both Iran’s freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling teams have simultaneously won world championship titles in the same year.
