Commentator for Dmitry Guberniev said that the biathlete Nikita Porshnev will return to competition mode after the new year because he is still young and has not said his last word in this sport.
On Friday, Porshnev took 106th place in the sprint of the second stage of the Alfa-Bank Russian Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk. After the race, the 27-year-old biathlete, who was not part of the Russian national team, told that he had decided to end his professional career. Later, the RBU press service announced that the biathlete would return to competition after a “short break”.
— Nikita is a very responsible person and an excellent family man. He is very worried about the separation from his child, he loves his beautiful wife. On the one hand, I was surprised by his decision to end his career, on the other, I wasn’t. Nikita was ill, took antibiotics and, contrary to the advice of doctors and coaches, took part in the race. Maybe he was slightly stuck and had given up on his emotions. If in Khanty-Mansiysk he had been offered the position of vice-president of an oil company or had been offered to join the Okrug government, perhaps it would have been worth finishing, because he had to feed his family. Well, now we have to rest and continue running, because he hasn’t said the last word in sports yet. You can be both a young dad and an excellent athlete. He is only 27 years old, so Nikita, stay, you will always be our king!
– How long will he need to rest?
— I think until the New Year. He should be back in January, no doubt. New Year’s Eve with the family is great, and then mow it, Nikitos! – Guberniev told .
On Friday, the women’s pursuit race will take place in Khanty-Mansiysk. Live broadcast on the channel will begin at 13:00 (Moscow time).
