Olympic women’s single skating champion Alina Zagitova said she had to improvise during her speech before the first official match in the new SKA Arena.
On Sunday, the skater played before the home game SKA in the Fonbet KHL Championship against Sochi.
– Interesting story. I’m flying to St. Petersburg with a ready-made program and I think I’m going to skate it. And then the organizers tell me: “We have such a problem that we need to skate to different music. » Can you imagine what this means for figure skaters? So that you understand, I had a lyrical program with another costume that I had prepared. As a result, I played in “sweatpants.”
It’s an interesting story. I go to training in a panic and do the program again. At first there was music for three minutes, then it became four minutes. And for a minute I just improvised,” Zagitova said on a social network.
