Olympic cross-country skiing champion Natalya Nepryaeva told RT how the coach Yuri Borodavko set up before the race at the Beijing Olympics with kind words.
Is it important for you to be congratulated?
I think it’s important for any girl.
– Do you remember the greatest praise of Yuri Viktorovich?
— It was before the skiathlon in Beijing. Borodavko was forced to stay in Moscow and we spoke with him by phone. I remember being surprised at the time. He doesn’t usually prepare me like that before a race. And then suddenly this: “You are my best, strongest, generally cool! You will succeed!” The next day I call him and understand that I cannot speak – I cry. Even now I remember – and tears rise.
