Latypov first “deprived” the Russian team of chances for a medal, and then led it to the “silver” at the KM in biathlon

The Russian national team, which included Anton Babikov, Daniil Serokhvostov, Alexander Loginov, Eduard Latypov, became the second at the World Cup stage in Anterselva, Italy.

It should be noted that everyone, except for Serokhvostov, shot poorly (Loginov had four misses), and Latypov, after prone, even went into the penalty loop. He fired decently at the “Stoyka”, but went fourth on the last lap, far behind the French and Germans. The Norwegians, who eventually became the first, could not be reached under any circumstances. However, Edik “drowned” in such a way that he brought Russia “silver”, forcing the Germans to be content with “bronze”. Although, in fairness, it should be noted that guys not from the main team ran for these teams.

The day before, we recall, the Russian women’s four also became the second. In today’s mass start, Kristina Reztsova became the best among Russians – she is fourth. And the pedestal looks like this: Italian Dorothea Wierer, Belarusian Dinara Alimbekova and Frenchwoman Anais Chevalier-Boucher.

It was the final start before the Beijing Olympics, where Russian biathletes fly out next week.
