Biathlete Said Khalili surprised by its speed is the biggest surprise in the sprint at the first stage of the Russian Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk, double Olympic champion Dmitry Vasilyev told .
Khalili finished the 10km race in 25 minutes 18.8 seconds on Thursday without fail. Second place was taken by Alexander Loginov, who was 18.6 seconds behind Khalili (0 misses). Third was Petr Pashchenko +30.8 (0).
— Of course, I surprised Khalili with such speed, it’s the biggest surprise of today’s race. It’s very important that a lot of people fight back with zero, that’s great. The same Loginov, for example, who rarely distinguished himself with a good shot on the stages of the World Cup. Finally started shooting. It surprises and delights at the same time. As for Pashchenko’s third place, he has been running for many years. He is one of those who run well in Russia, but if the international starts, it would be more difficult for him. And the collections have confirmed their high status, which is good news.
— Matvey Eliseev arrived in Khanty-Mansiysk at 5 a.m. on race day and took seventh place in the sprint without a miss.
– In general, no one cares what time Eliseev arrived, these are his problems, his difficulties. It is important that he reaches the top ten with zero. 42 seconds behind the winner with him is not so bad for the first start, not bad enough,” Vasilyev told .
