Iconic shared Olympic gold moment will not be repeated, says Barshim

Mutaz Ezza Barshim embraced his old friend Gianmarco Tamberi at the end of the men's high jump as the judges confirmed the double gold for the Qatari and the Italian who have known each other for years dating back to competing as youths. "To be honest, it will never happen again," Barshim told AFP in an interview. "That moment, we'll never share that again. It was a one-time thing. Coming back from injuries and a dark place, I wanted to do something different, something with a different meaning.
