Biathlete Goreeva dreams of returning to international competitions

Double world champion among junior biathletes Anastasia Goreva told that his dream remained to return to international racing and expressed the opinion that the Russians would be among the leaders in the competition.

In February 2022, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) recommended preventing Russians from participating in international competitions. In January 2023, the IOC announced that it would consider the possibility of admitting Russian and Belarusian athletes to world starts in a neutral status, who did not actively support the SVO.

— It is difficult to adapt the results in Russia to what we would look like in the world. I think we would not stand out from the general mass of leaders,” Goreeva told a correspondent. – The level of the Russian Cup has increased a lot compared to last year, the competition is high – all the leaders of the Russian team compete, and the rest are not lagging behind.

– Have you considered returning to international level next season for the New Year?

– You can’t talk about your desires, otherwise nothing will come true (laughs). But I dream, I await the return.

Goreeva on Saturday with a failure became the second in pursuit of the sixth stage of the PARI Cup of Russia. The biathlete lost 0.8 seconds to the winner Larisa Kuklina.

The races of the final phase of the PARI Cup of Russia are broadcast live on the channel, as well as on the matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru sites. On Sunday, February 19, the women’s and men’s mass starts will take place, the broadcast will start at 8:40 am and 10:50 am respectively (Moscow time).
