Head coach of Russia Vladimir Barnashov

“Today was a strong wind, but weather conditions are the same for everyone. The combination of speed and a normal, controlled shooting the girls still can not. One feels that there is good potential in the course, but the shooting is not all sorted out – quoted the head coach of Russia official site of the Russian Biathlon Union.

– All girls, except, perhaps, Jana and Maria Romanova Sadilova normally worked at the shooting range. Compared with the individual race and they have added very much – Anna Boulygina shooting has improved, yes, she flunked maturation, allowed two misses, but no errors had fired while standing. Same thing with Olga Zaitseva – one penalty loop after each firing line.

Well, that's made today Medvedtseva Olga – she shot cleanly, and on race was quite fast. Norwegian biathlon Tour Berger, who eventually walked Medvedtseva, walked behind her, so she was somewhat easier, because she knew the result of our Burger Olga, but played solidly Tour – seven seconds.

Today was the first start of Mary Sadilova at the World Cup. Maybe a little burned out Mary, but let's not judge her severely. Without such blunders do not happen and major victories. Remember how their performances began to Anna Bulygin, and now, please – the world champion. Overall, I am pleased with the performance of girls is, of course, the questions, but all of them – working character “.

“Apart from Ian and Maria Romanov Sadilova, we performed well. Some not quite cope with the shooting, but now is not the time to make any far-reaching conclusions. In general, the speed and today was on the level. Olga Medvedtseva zero was the second shooting, and had a chance to fight for first place. Shoot at the “zero” Zaitseva, and even Bulygin Sleptsova – with their speed, they could all be in the medals today “.

“The first season after the birth of her second child, Olga got heavy, – told the head coach of the women's national team of Russia in an interview with the sports information” All Sport “. – Last year, she looked much better. Well, this could still sprogressirovat. Now with every step will go higher and higher speeds. I hope we have calculated correctly, and Olga will be able to go on a more serious level “.

“Light could say something on the emotions. We planned it on the baton, and she has agreed to run its first stage. A request for the torch, we serve just at the moment. And Sleptsova in it, of course, present. We want to relieve a little Olga Zaitseva. Still, the last stage – it is always an additional psychological pressure. So we decided this time to change the girls' places. Arrange the stages will be as follows: Sleptsov Bulygin, Zaitseva, Medvedtseva. Tomorrow's see what happens “.

But everything is in order, skis worked well – quotes Olga Medvedtseva “All Sports” with reference to the TV channel “Sport”. – I do not think that I speak now, so badly. If you only compare to last year. I want to emphasize that the speed I have now is far better. I have it still did not feel, and it pleases me very much. If we consider that the main start with us in front, and there will have to run very fast. I think everything is going well “.
