Down-the-line.com / Figure Skating. Well-known figure skating coach Sergei Davydov spoke about the criticism of two-time Olympic champion Evgeni Plushenko. Previously, he expressed his dissatisfaction with refereeing at youth competitions in Russia.

“To be honest, I haven’t paid attention to it for a long time. Let’s start with the fact that people themselves were wrong in the short program. And if so, it makes no sense to say who completed or left unfinished what in the free program.

Coach Gorbacheva: Plushenko’s opinion is not authoritative for me

We have to start with ourselves, as we all do. To sort out your own mistakes and fix them, and not blame the other kids, the coaches, the federation and everyone else after.

I have long been of the opinion that in the first place you should not make mistakes yourself. If you are not mistaken, you can really talk about something, argue. In this case, in my opinion, all these conversations are absolutely inappropriate,” the coach said as quoted by RIA Novosti.
