Biathlete Ivan Kolotov commented on the silver in the mixed singles paired with Anastasia Zyryanova at the Alfa-Bank Russian Championship in Tyumen, noting that he was not offended by the defeat Yevgeny Garanichev And Victoria Slivko .
Kolotov and Zyryanova (Perm region) lost to Garanichev and Slivko (Tyumen region) by 13.9 seconds. Evgeniy Emerkhonov and Lyubov Kalinina (Republic of Tatarstan) came third.
— Everything was going so well when I took the first step. When I was running the second stage, I thought everything was fine, that there was a gap. Then a thought came to my mind: “Even if we lose to the Tyumen team, it will not be so offensive.” Thoughts are material. We haven’t really talked about the situation, we’re preparing,” Kolotov said on .
Zyryanova noted that her heart sank before her partner’s shooting.
— I really liked the race. Of course, before that, my debut was not very successful. Today we showed a good fight. Did I watch my partner shoot? When he shot, my heart sank,” Zyryanova added.
