Down-the-line.com / Figure Skating. Double Olympic figure skating champion, former Russian figure skater Evgeni Plushenko made his debut in the Football Media League. He played for the Broke Boys.

After the match, Plushenko admitted he was injured.

Plushenko: ‘Media football is characterized by skirmishes and dirt’

“I have a little tightness in my groin, tomorrow I will go and take a picture. I had several operations. Apparently something happened. A month ago my sciatic nerve was pinched.

I created a hockey team, apparently loaded. It’ll be OK. I want to play and train. The team is good, the guys are interesting. The main thing is to get in order.

I don’t mean to offend anyone, hockey and figure skating are complex sports. But intensity football is a hell of a sport. Big respect for all the players,” Plushenko said. “Sport Express”.
