Zenit Kazan finally won the medal that was lacking in the coffin with gold. Wilfredo Leon once again was the best on the tournament but the award for the MVP went to the hands of the other player.
Leon
“The emotions tonight are really high. I never play for being the MVP, so I want to congratulate Osmany Juantorena. I’m always playing for the team, like all of my teammates. I played for the gold medal and I did my job. It’s our first gold medal in this competition, so we are very happy with what we’ve done here ” explained Wilfredo Leon.

It’s sad to see the great player with such a little class. I sincerely hope Leon will grow to be at least half of man and player Juantorena is.

Re: @former_player
I think his response was perfectly reasonable and was not meant to be a dig at Osmany
Re: @former_player Juantorena with class? It is clear you don’t know so mich about him…
Re: @Jenni What did you say about Juantorena? If this is not class act, I don’t know what it is

@former player what? are you misunderstanding something? This is textbook PR comment about losing an award. Have you seen Juantorena’s misadventures with his instagram recently? :/
