Tarasova said that the arbitrators will not listen to Plushenko’s words about unfair refereeing
Honored coach of the USSR in figure skating Tatyana Tarasova commented on the words of two-time Olympic champion Evgeny Plushenko about unfair refereeing in Russia. She is quoted by Sport24.
“He has beautiful girls and he does a very good job himself. But his skaters made mistakes, and they were removed for it, ”said the specialist. However, she added that she also expected higher free skate marks from Plushenko’s student Veronika Zhilina.
Tarasova also expressed confidence that the referees would not listen to the words of the coach. “Yes, no one listens to us. The judges didn’t care about everyone. Said and said. What is it? But initially the figure skater had a mistake, ”she explained.
Earlier Thursday, February 16, Plushenko called the refereeing at the 2023 Russian Junior Championships unfair. “If my athletes are judged in the same way as now, there will be a transition to other countries,” he predicted.
