Biathlete Yevgeny Sidorov told that he did not expect to win the Little Crystal Globe in the pursuit race for the Alfa-Bank Russian Cup.
On Sunday, Sidorov became the winner of the pursuit at the fifth stage of the Russian Cup in Ufa and won the pursuit classification.
“I didn’t know it would happen like this.” In the morning I woke up and thought about how to finish the Cup well and go home in a good mood, and then prepare for the championship. It turned out something like this.
— End of the race against Babikov.
— I saw in the penultimate lap that Anton was going through a difficult period, he was not as good over the distance as in previous races. When we left for the last lap, I thought that even if he got closer to me, I would try to speed up the climbs and run away from him. It turned out that I was walking at a leisurely pace, but he didn’t come any closer.
— What can you say about the atmosphere?
— There was good support in Zlatoust, and there were a lot of fans here during the final race. The atmosphere was crazy, of course,” Sidorov said on .
