Even as the rest of the Indian wrestling contingent were in a celebratory mode last evening moments after wrestler Bajrang Punia won India's first gold medal, in the 65kg category, in the Asian Games, the grappler's personal coach Emzario Bentinidis was furious.

The Georgian was upset that everyone else around him was trying to steal the credit for Bajrang's success. "I have worked 24 hours each and every day for the last four months and have made Bajrang the champion that he is, but none of the coaches or the Wrestling Federation of India have come up to thank me," Bentinidis told mid-day yesterday.
