Sergey Bashkirov “Garanichev won the bronze medal for our team” – SPORT – EXPRESS

The coach men’s national team of Russia Sergey Bashkirov at the end of the Christmas race in Gelsenkirchen admitted that Russian athletes perform well in the mass start prevented the extra haste. At the same time the expert was fully satisfied with the work of Eugene Garanicheva. Recall, the Russian team, which included Garanichev and Yana Romanova eventually won these competitions in third place.

– We arrived in Gelsenkirchen late last night – leads the “All Sports” words Bashkirov. – We got here without any problems, the race Jan and Eugene were ready. In the mass start bit they did not work – somewhere flawed, rushed. But the prosecution will put everything in its place. The guys on the right and on the final segment, we even saw the fight for third place, which we won. On this route, it is very difficult to catch the right moment to attack. And we are lucky today that Garanichevu succeeded. Eugene – brilliant, worked perfectly, first successfully caught, and then managed to tactically dismantle an opponent and won a bronze medal for our team.
