Olympian Adil Osmanov has experienced a tough break.

The Moldovan judo star was in the process of reveling in his 2024 Paris Olympics bronze medal win against Italy's Manuel Lombardo July 29 when his celebration was cut short after appearing to dislocate his shoulder.

Indeed, as seen in footage of the moment, the 24-year-old had been raising his hands in victory, before returning to his knees and screaming with delight. He continued with a fist pump across his body when he abruptly cried out in pain, crouching and clutching his shoulder with his opposite hand.

Thankfully, whatever exact injury Adil sustained during his celebration was remedied quickly enough that he was able to appear for his medal ceremony. He and Soichi Hashimoto of Japan each earned bronze medals in the judo 73kg heat, while France’s Joan-Benjamin Gaba earned silver and Azerbaijan’s Hidayat Heydarov came out on top with a gold medal win.

Following the match, Adil confessed that he’d been advised to get surgery on his shoulder ahead of the Paris Olympics and that it’d been troubling during his bout.

“Yes, it was very difficult,” he said, according to Metro UK. “And during the warm-up I felt bad, but I’ve had that before—and that’s when I got a medal. I had no options to back down.”

And Adil isn’t the only Olympian who powered through injury to emerge victorious.

During the July 30 women’s gymnastics team finals, Brazil’s Flavia Saraiva fell during her warm up on the uneven bars, resulting in a black eye.

Yet despite her fall and the bandage over her right eye, Flavia came back to participate in all four events and even earned a 13.666 on the uneven bars—the second-highest score Brazil has ever achieved in the event.

And her efforts were not in vain, helping lead Team Brazil—which also featured athletes Rebeca Andrade, Jade Barbosa, Lorrane Oliveira and Julia Soares—to a bronze medal victory, the country’s first ever medal in the event, while Italy earned a silver medal and Team USA the gold. 

“It’s magical that we did it,” said Jade following her team’s third place finish, according to the AP. “It’s pure magic. Brazil wasn’t big in this sport. We had a lot of great individuals, but now we have a great group of gymnasts.”

And as Flavia summarized of soldiering on: “We are warriors.”
