In the near future, Alina Zagitova, who arrived at the base in Novogorsk later than her colleagues, will start training. In accordance with the rules, she has already passed the coronavirus test, which showed a negative result.
Meanwhile, in Asia, where the Olympic gold winner of Pyeongchang 2018 is very popular, an article dedicated to her has been published in the media.

In turn, the skater Tiffany Zagorski, who is paired with Jonathan Gureyro, told how she met Zagitova three years ago.
“The national team began to resettle the skaters in two at the hotel. Alina and I surnamed one after another in alphabetical order, and we were settled together. I did not know who this baby is. I was very surprised when I was told that she was only 15 years old, and she was already participating in adult competitions. Entering the room, we greeted each other and wished each other good luck. In the next trips, they themselves everywhere settled together. We spent a lot of time together, supported each other, ”Match TV quotes Zagorski.
And Zagitova herself posted a funny post on Instagram. She filmed a video for Japanese television, the main character of which was her dog Masaru. It was not possible to record the greeting the first time, and the athlete shared unsuccessful shots.

Unexpectedly, many commentators on figure skating on social networks exchanged television commentator Vasily Utkin and football coach Leonid Slutsky.
The journalist published the video and added the signature “Zagitov” to it. On it, a shark jumps out of the water and makes several revolutions in the air. Mentor “Rubin” in the comments noted that the animal is more likely to resemble Trusova, hinting at the quadruple jumps that glorified the athlete.
“A shark cannot have a surname with such a root!” Utkin joked.
Tuktamysheva program and Trankov's kiss
After undergoing testing for coronavirus, the group began training and Evgeni Plushenko, who chose a base in Kislovodsk for training. The specialist showed a warm-up of the wards, in which Alexander Trusova also took part.
“The work is already in full swing in Kislovodsk. The team of collections of “Plushenko's Angels” and the coaches of my team! ”, Plushenko wrote.

Alexey Mishin’s wards had to stay in St. Petersburg, where the Yubileiny skating rink was reserved for their classes. The fact is that the Federal Medical and Biological Agency, in recommendations on preventing the spread of coronavirus infection, forbade people over 65 years of age to attend training camps, while the mentor is already 79.
Elizaveta Tuktamysheva said that Mishin approved the free program, which she put together with the choreographer Yuri Smekalov in an online format.
“Until the end, there was no certainty that the program would be pleasant and would be approved. But when Alexei Nikolaevich saw the final version, then there was no doubt. Of course, I was a little worried about the verdict. It seems that you really are waiting for the continuation of this story and I hope that very soon we will begin to transfer the program to ice, ”said Tuktamysheva.

Recall that in April the skater announced the launch of the project, in which everyone could take part. She showed the stages of work on the number on live Instagram, and the fans had the opportunity to express their opinion.
Now the athlete launched a new contest for fans, writing eight facts about herself and asking them to guess which ones are false.
The correct answer soon followed. It turned out that Tuktamysheva was really engaged in figure skating from the age of five, she likes to change plans, sleep and does not throw out old things. The allegations about the love of ice cream, being late, the dream of moving to London, and also that she persuaded her sister to quit sports were false.
In turn, Maxim Trankov, working with a couple of Evgeny Tarasov - Vladimir Morozov, showed how glad he was to return to work. Arriving at the rink after a long break, he ran out onto the ice, fell to his knees and began to kiss him.
At the meeting hour after a long separation ...
