“Immediately after the finish, I decided to give the Cup to Christina. I can’t speak for the other girls, maybe everyone would have done the same thing in my place. I think I did the right thing. Christina should have the first Reztsova Cup!
“In this situation, it was impossible not to cry.
– Yes, I cried. The tears flowed while I was still on the air; I could barely hold it in,” Slivko told .
