“The queen is usually old, I’m still young!” — Moskvina replied to Guberniev

Tamara Moskvina, Russia’s honored figure skating coach, told that she was pleased with the attention given to her sport by such a well-known journalist as Dmitry Guberniev.

On Sunday in St. Petersburg, at the Repino-Leninskoye country club, before the new season of the Continental Hockey League, a large-scale presentation of SKA hockey took place. Moskvina became one of the honored guests. The host of the event, Dmitry Guberniev, impromptu invited her to the stage, calling her the queen.

– Pride covers when you see such a holiday. It can be said that skaters envy such popularity, fame and importance of such presentation.

– When Dmitry Guberniev came on stage, did it surprise you?

Yes, it was purely impromptu. It’s good that such a well-known journalist knows figure skating and pays tribute to some coaches. It’s true, he honors everyone, loves everyone, because we do one common thing, we try to please, emotions, sometimes not quite positive, for the fans. This is the whole point of sport as a spectacle, an element of struggle, of surpassing oneself. Emotions influence the lives of people of all ages, and for young people these holidays are very important: children see what they want to do. It makes the happiness of the inhabitants of the city and the countryside.

“You looked a little embarrassed when he called you queen.

“Yes, because the queen is usually old, I’m still young!” A joke, of course. We just have a lot of good coaches, specialists and skaters. And I like to stay behind the scenes, – Moskvina told .
