Oleksiy Mandziy is skeptical about the distant prospects of the team.
Grizlis, endured, could. The woman of the national team of Ukraine is a sensational winner of the world championship in the relay.
Before the start, the medal was much less for Qiu, lower in the success of Dmitry Pidruchny in the messenger of the retrial. Their maximum, it would seem, was that the team showed in the individual race – miraculous shooting, but far behind the podium. Aby to claim for the city, it would be necessary not only to repeat the shooting performances of the individual race, but also to invest in the pardon of others.
A handy guide to history. Yogo win – fantastic
Stars rallied – Italy had lost Dorothea Wierer before the start (together with her there was a chance for a medal), France self-isolated at another stage, having earned three stakes for a fine. At the same other stage, Svetlana Mironova looked too far ahead of Russia, and Nimechchyna had a chance to fight against shooting throughout the race. For such minds, the accuracy and sharpness of Ukrainian women played their role.

| Selected | Hour | Misce (Misce in gonts) |

| ?? Sweden | +32.4 | 5th (2nd) |
| ?? Norway | +38.7 | 6th (1st) |

Ale, they don’t give a medal for special reasons for joy. Local gain (hoch and other receptions), which does not recreate a disastrous season. It took too much to fill and claims to the Ukrainian women’s biathlon over the whole winter, or to give everything one more than a bronze in the relay at the world championship.
Tsya nagorod, in principle, is rich in what foreseeable way before the Olympic championship of the world. Todi Ukraine tezh unexpectedly rose to the podium, rose in the course of the season. That kind of similarity, between the two medals, is a great advantage: even Ukraine won not arrogantly, but in spite of itself. How many times has a medal been won by the “zavdyaki” itself. Zavdyaki fail supernits, in pershu black.
Ukraine, without a doubt, held an ideal race. Five additional cartridges in such minds – a neimovirny result. Navit Swedes, as they know all the nearby places of the shooting range in Jestersund, missed more. But, well, yakby had such a perfect race and other favorites? That wind is not ideal – it’s enough just not to fail like France is on another stage, or Nimechchina ice is not on the skin shooting range. Where would Ukraine finish? Otozh.
Zreshtoy, the biggest difference between these silvers and golden bronzes is not the insoles in the supernits, but the insoles in the Ukrainians themselves. For the rest of the time, Olena Pidhrushna was vivacious in the full-time fight against Mary Doren Abert and Gabriela Koukalova, and for the second time, Valentina Semerenko was a diva in the 30-second handicap over Laura Dahlmeier. So, for the remaining two kilometers (two kilometers!) Nimkenya won 29.3 seconds in Ukrainian women. Lauri missed 0.5 seconds, abi take bronze in blue-yellow.

The axis of the change is from the oxen stake of Pdgrushna to the worn finish of Valentina – the best sign of the further degradation of the Ukrainian women’s biathlon. If only five years ago Ukraine could compete with the top superwomen for whatever minds, then two years ago, for whom the ideal race was needed. Now, for the mind of the ideal race, Ukrainian biathletes are fighting on the podium, but they won’t go to fight for victory.
On the other side, but what could be on the other side? If the command is not to carry out the change of generations, or if there is a coming generation of weakness and still indulges the “veterans”, then what can you pay for?
The middle of the relay four at the world championship in Jestersund — 29.5 years. For this show, Ukraine sent another place: the senior warehouse put up only the US selection, 30 years. In honor of those that the middle age of Thursdays at this relay race (26.1 years) may be three and a half years younger, the lower warehouse of Ukraine – the “delivery” is not particularly quiet.

| Selected | Vik |
| ?? USA | thirty |
| ?? Ukraine | 29.5 |
| ?? Slovakia | 28.5 |
| ?? Japan | 28.5 |
| ?? Republic of Korea | 28.25 |
| Middle Age of Relay Four | 26.1 |
In the coming season, the regression of the “veterans” is becoming increasingly critical, investing in such a team option (I’m not talking about the relay four, but about the warehouse of team A for the season) is a stupid idea. Tom This medal did not change anything in the global plan: Ukraine will require rejuvenation and renovation of the warehouse.
How to show the butt of Sweden, three rokіv as a whole is enough, and from the number of juniors and not the strongest biathletes to create a fighting machine, as you can collect rewards from any discipline. Three winters have passed before the upcoming Olympiad – in Ukraine there is still an hour to encourage a new team.
BUT for the current version of the choice of bronze in the relay may be a beautiful farewell chord. They didn’t believe in them, they mocked them, but the girls could take their will into a fist and they saw one ideal race. Not only for yourself, but also for the upcoming Ukrainian biathlon – after all, the prizes, sovereigns for the upcoming season, are the honor of sponsors. The stinks have broken their right, now it’s time to collapse far away.
