Funny how things work. If Alizadeh had still be representing Iran, Kiani probably wouldn't even be at the Olympics!

Any early success for us in the Olympics is a surprise (for example Haddadi winning a silver in discus throw).

The sensors sucked. Without Kiani's coach making challenges. many points would have been missed.
Guaranteed medal. She will now be the highest finishing Iranian female Olympic athlete ever.

True —I think the fencing's success and possibility to medal as well as the gymnast early on-and their eventual failure to medal had me bummed

Really hope Kiani gets her head together and is not satiated by being the first Silver medalist.
She has a chance to write her name even further in history books as the first Iranian women gold medalist. Think of the inspiration she will have for women in our country.
She is the underdog and has nothing to lose
