Heavyweight weightlifter Stan Chalaev won his second consecutive Commonwealth Games silver medal after an exciting contest in the Clyde Auditorium.
Chalaev, 27, lifted a total of 341kg, compared to the winner, Kiribati man David Katoataus 348kg.
The New Zealander snatched 150kg and 155kg, and then missed at 158kg.
In the clean and jerk, he managed 183kg and 186kg, but missed at 191kg.
Chalaev captured the hearts of sports fans when he dedicated his medal in Delhi four years ago to his recently deceased mother and carried her photo on to the podium.
In Glasgow he was composed throughout the contest and seemed to thrive on the competition.
Im very happy, he said afterwards. I wanted to win a medal for my team and my country, and Im proud that I did it.
He felt the standard was higher at these games and said he thrived on the competitions in which there is only a few kilograms between lifters and each kilogram can make a crucial difference.
