1. Norway, 2. Germany, 3. Japan.
Hockey. The final. Women
Canada – USA – 3: 2.
And, finally, Russia rejoices at the “gold” of Anna Shcherbakova in figure skating among single skaters, the “silver” of Alexandra Trusova and mourns because of the failure of Kamila Valieva, who, leading after the short program, made an unprecedented number of mistakes in the free program, missed the podium , in third place, Japanese Kaori Sakamot.
The Olympics for Russian curlers is over. But if the eighth place for men is a success, then the last place for women is a complete failure.
Russia is still in ninth place overall (where the main criterion is the number of gold medals), and second in terms of the number of medals.
Tomorrow, among other things, two sets of awards in biathlon will be played – ours have hopes.
