The story till thenAbhinav Bindra emerged as a shooter of rare pedigree at the turn of the century. As a 17-year-old he became the youngest Indian participant at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. Four years later, in Athens, he broke the world record to enter the finals, only to falter and finish last in a field of eight. His stature continued to rise internationally, though, as he became the first Indian to win a World Championship gold in 2006 and also picked up two medals at the Commonwealth Games in the same year, including a gold.The moment At the Beijing Olympics, Bindra delivered Indias greatest moment in Olympic history by taking the gold in the 10m Air Rifle. It was Indias first ever individual Olympic gold and Bindra accomplished it with a poised performance in front of a packed arena and a huge TV audience back home. He was fourth at the end of the qualifying round but with a final round of 104.5 he overcame a strong field to clinch the title. The feat sparked a wave of national celebration.The reaction Its the thrill of my life. Thats about it. Its hard to describe. I just went for it. I knew I was lying in fourth. Thankfully it went my way and I just went for it. - Abhinav BindraExpert view The mental block that we are not good enough to get a gold will be gone. Abhinav has made us all proud and achieved Indias greatest sporting success. An Olympic gold is the thing in life. Everything else comes second. - Randhir Singh, former Indian Olympic Association secretary and international shooterThe story since After the gold, Bindra took time off shooting to consider a career in business, but he made a comeback ahead of the 2010 Commonwealth Games in New Delhi, where he had to settle for silver in the individual event, behind colleague Gagan Narang, though he won gold in the pairs. He was unable to replicate his 2008 form at the 2012 Olympics, failing to reach the finals.

Jose Mourinho has changed his tune when it comes to the Europa League.Nine months ago, when Mourinho was coaching a Chelsea side struggling for form, he was openly dismissive of the prospect of playing in Europes second-tier competition, saying it was a different level of competition for a different level of player and a different level of club. It is not good for a big club to go there and win it.On Wednesday and now in charge of Manchester United, Mourinho was embracing it.We want to win the competition, Mourinho said, a day before United begins its group-stage campaign with a match at Dutch side Feyenoord. Its difficult to do it, its simple to feel it and to say. This is the way we want to approach the competition.Of course, Mourinho is not the reason why United is in the Europa League this season. The team missed out on the Champions League by finishing in fifth place in the Premier League under predecessor Louis van Gaal, and United now must enduree the Thursday-Sunday fixture schedule that many English teams have found so tough in recent years.ddddddddddddMourinho believes it makes winning the Premier League this season even harder for United.Its more difficult, yes, he said.United has taken a strong squad to the Netherlands, although it is missing first-team regulars Wayne Rooney, Luke Shaw and Antonio Valencia as Mourinho looks ahead to Sundays Premier League game at Watford.On the absence of captain Rooney, Mourinho said: He plays every game since the beginning of the season. He plays for the England team, 90 minutes the last weekend.

Feyenoord has won all five of its games in the Dutch league. ' ' '
