The no 1 ranked man in world fencing exited the men's sabre event at the Olympic Games in Paris on Saturday but he did not leave quietly.

Georgia's Sandro Bazadze lost 15-14 to Mohamed Amer of Egypt in the round of 16.

However, the contest ended with both players screaming in apparent celebration.

Bazadze was seemingly convinced that he had landed the winning touch before Amer and looked stunned when his opponent was announced as the victor.

But Spanish match referee Vanesa Chichon checked the video and still concluded that Amer had won.
