One of the girls asked the group of three guys who were standing next to smoke a cigarette. ” According to Anna, Dmitry came out a little later and saw that the guys were behaving rudely.
He reprimanded them, but they didn’t like it: “They pushed, we tried to separate, there was a strange situation, because three girls were trying to separate three guys who were trying to attack. When they once again crowded around Dima, I realized that now there will be, apparently, a second run, after which I have already started filming – just in case, so that we have some kind of protection. “

Figure skating on the eve of the Russian Championship, where the main candidates for a trip to Beijing-2022 will be determined, is becoming the main topic in sports. And even Eteri Tutberidze , who rarely speaks openly in the press, decided to appear in front of the fans. The Russian coach said that her daughter Diana Davis , paired with Gleb Smolkin , is her only favorite, and she treats the rest of her pupils equally.
“I don’t forgive my daughter’s mistakes on the ice. When I arrive, we swear for every unstretched leg. No, she listens to me – she just doesn’t care, of course, butting, as it should be to butt with a parent, ”Tutberidze said on the First Channel.
Eteri also told about Alina Zagitova: “She came as a weak girl, but she was very flexible. We had a condition that my mother would not live in Moscow until the Olympic medal – and my mother survived. And then my mother came, and Alina immediately became a girl, my mother’s daughter. ” Zagitova and Evgenia Medvedeva won first and second places at the Olympics in Pyeongchang, and, as Tutberidze said, “we just have to somehow be grateful for this second, for a minute that this happened, that we came to this”.
