presenter and former figure skater Emma Gadzhieva thanked the team in which she played during the gala hockey match, noting that her partners helped her take effective action.
Gadzhieva took part in the gala hockey match which took place on Friday in Moscow. The journalist represented the Hockey Legends team, which also included hockey players Sergei Babinov, Evgeniy Davydov, Sergei Makarov and others. Their opponent was the club team Lokomotiv-RZD, which included footballers Ruslan Pimenov, Dmitry Loskov and Dmitry Sychev. The match ended with a score of 3:3.
— Have you ever played hockey with such serious players?
– No. Once in my life I played, but not with equipment, at my nephew’s hockey school there was a parents’ day, my parents went to the rink and played. The uniform really hampers my movements, it’s uncomfortable to wear, I’m like a bear that weighs over twenty-five kilos. Arms and legs move differently. For a figure skater who has weighed more than two hundred grams during her career, it’s a completely different feeling…
The equipment weighs about five kilos, but in terms of volume and feel it weighs twenty, so there is some discomfort. Thanks to the team. When there was an assistant, they wanted me to score, but I decided I would pass the ball anyway just to be safe. They did everything for me to score the goal,” Gadzhieva told .
