Russian Federation synchronised swimmer Valeriya Filenkova speaks of her immense pride after winning gold at the European Games.

Russian Federation synchronised swimmer Valeriya Filenkova has hailed the European Games as an "unforgettable experience" after winning gold in the free combination final.

The gold was Russia's fourth in synchronised swimming at Baku, ensuring that they completed a clean sweep having won the individual, duets and team events already.

"Most of us will rest. We want to meet with each other to go to the sea and swim together again. Then we will prepare for a new season," Filenko told reporters.

"It was an unforgettable experience. We are so proud to bring a medal home for our country."

Russia are sitting comfortably at the top of the medals table, with hosts Azerbaijan in second.
