Russia were considered as one of the top favorites for the gold medal at Rio... However, they got eliminated in the quarterfinals of the women's volleyball tournament.

On top of that, Russia looked totally inferior to Serbia. They failed to win a single set and suffered a pretty painful defeat.

“I want to apologize to the fans” said Russian volleyball star Tatiana Kosheleva after the match. “I now how many people have been supporting us during this tournament. I am sorry for our game. Still, no matter how did we look from the outside, believe me, we gave our soul. There are many difficult moments in life and this is one of them. It is called sport. Honestly, I still cannot believe that this actually happened,” concluded Kosheleva.

Russia women’s volleyball team have therefore stayed without a medal at the 3rd consecutive Olympic Games.
