The gymnast stressed that the audience very helped her with support.

"The support of the fans is very important to us. And also, the fact that yesterday I won the AGF Trophy inspired me during the performances in the finals," she said.

Arzu Jalilova also added that she is gaining mastery every year.

"There is progress, the exercises are already more difficult and the points are higher. Of course, the tension increases slightly", she said.
