Rodnina called the Russian podium in women’s skating at the World Cup a historical event

“This is a historic event. We have never had such a thing. There were the first victories associated with Masha Butyrskaya, Lena Vodorezova, Kira Ivanvoy. Then the whole galaxy went, but in such a way as to occupy the entire podium – this is really the first time, given that all our girls are very different. That Anya Shcherbakova, who is very courageous and stable all season, we saw, and after an illness she performed. Liza, who captivates everyone with her devotion and love for figure skating, and she does not hesitate to undertake such complex experiments. And, of course, Sasha’s breakthrough, “Sport-Express quotes Rodnina.

In her opinion, Trusova’s jerk to the pedestal was very brave and risky. She also noted that Alexandra did not abandon her plan even at a time when the program seemed to be going badly.

“There you can discuss the program, her riding style, mistakes, actions, but she just demonstrated once again that she is a very powerful person. Alexandra is not afraid of difficulties, does not give in to them and struggles with such situations in a very adult way, ”Rodnina added.

Anna Shcherbakova won the gold of the world championship, gaining 233.17 points on the sum of the two programs. The second place was taken by Elizaveta Tuktamysheva, and the third – by Alexandra Trusova.

Earlier, Tatyana Tarasova shared her emotions from the results of Russian figure skaters at the World Cup.
