Popova: “Simonova’s fall seemed very scary, but they came out of it with the smoothest possible result”

Athletistic/ Figure skating. Last week, at a junior tournament in Moscow, 14-year-old figure skater Maria Simonova, playing in a duet with Martin Breslavsky, fell and hit her head on the ice. She was hospitalized with a concussion and head trauma. At the end of last week, Simonova was released from the hospital and returned home. The coach of the figure skater Betina Popova spoke about this.

“She came home on Saturday – everything is fine, everything is fine, she is in good spirits. Doctors are as positive as possible in their predictions. Overall, I was lucky. The fall seemed very scary, but in the end they got away with the sweetest thing that could happen,” Popova told Gazeta.ru.
