“It was a very intense and very long match. In my opinion, Rybakina did not fulfill the tasks she set for herself. She played worse, played an ordinary match, did not show her qualities. In general, I always root for her, she has great talent, which allows her to compete to win all tournaments. Blinkova demonstrated the fighting spirit and dedication that was inherent in her since childhood. She felt that she had a little chance and took advantage of it. Especially on match points. Well done, you can’t say anything. But will she be able to continue “To pass this path with so much success is a big question. To achieve great victories, you also need to have class. Otherwise, it is quite possible to run into someone much weaker,” Dmitrieva quotes RIA Novosti.
