The ski World Cup stage in late January ended with a scandalous 4×7.5km men’s relay race.
The Norwegians triumphed here, and in the fight for second place, passions simply boiled over: in the last few meters they competed for the Finns for silver. Joni maeki and russian Alexander Bolshunov. The Russian athlete tried to double the Finn, but did not reach the track and stumbled behind the opponent. Furious A.Bolšunovas wanted to hit J. Maek with a stick, but the Finns were already a bit apart. The Russian then decided to vent his anger after the shot, when he deliberately targeted his opponent and knocked him to the ground, earning a disqualification for his entire team.
Czech skier Tereza Beranova, often involved in the stages of the World Cup, he knows what it means to communicate with Russian representatives. He noted that the country’s skiers are the most unpleasant.
“The Bolshunov incident only showed me once again that Russian skiers are half-hearted. This is my opinion of them and I won’t change it. The Finns did nothing wrong there, because it was a fight for a higher place just before the goal. After all, we are not racing to miss an opponent prematurely. And when Bolshunov grabbed a stick, he just acted like a monkey. The Russians have a great team of skiers, but they will never get a salute or a smile from them. Difficult to say hello to them? Is it difficult to talk to others? Why are they doing this in the World Cup stages? The Russians themselves provoke negative emotions in others with their behavior, “Beranova told the Czech media.
The 22-year-old athlete has significantly improved her results this World Cup season. T.Beranova ranked ninth in the sprint race in Sweden, and on the stage in Germany with Katerina Janatova she finished in the 5th team sprint race.
