Tutberidze said that the confrontation between Zagitova and Medvedeva was “drawn” by journalists
Russian figure skating coach Eteri Tutberidze spoke about the confrontation between her students Alina Zagitova and Evgenia Medvedeva. Her words are quoted by KP.
“You yourself drew the“ Confrontation ”of Zagitova and Medvedeva and convinced yourself of it first, and then the girls. Each competes with itself. No one can perform the content of another girl, ”Tutberidze said.
Zagitova suspended performances in December 2019. She works as a host in the television show “Ice Age” and studies at the Faculty of Journalism of the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (RANEPA). The athlete is an Olympic champion and silver medalist of the 2018 Olympics in Pyeongchang. Also on her account is the gold of the championships of Russia, Europe and the world.
Medvedeva is a two-time world and European champion. At the Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, the figure skater won two silver medals – in team competitions and in the individual competition. In 2021, she announced that she had effectively retired.
