A first Olympic medal must be a sacred moment. For Cyrian Ravet, this moment was with a journalist from Eurosport.

“That's it, it's official you are medallists because Vitto (the opponent) is out” the journalist announced to the young Frenchman before the latter could answer : "Ah yeah let’s gooo (allez), bah benef".
A simple, spontaneous and innocent answer. Let us recall that Ravet is only 21 years old and was competing in his first Olympic Games in Paris.
