Plot: the situation with the possible ban of the Russian team from the Olympics - Opinion, commentaries.
Moscow, July 25th RSport. Alexander Rogulev.
According to the Head Coach of the Russian team Valentina Rodionenko, the team settled down in the Olympic Village without any problems.
Rodionenko denied the information spread by the mass media in Sunday that the Russian gymnastics team was not allowed to move in in Brazil. She pointed out the team had not arrived in Brazil yet!
“We arrived and moved in without problems. Sill do not understand the source of this canard (“duck” =Literal translation ) without understanding what is going on. The most important thing, everything is OK, all unpleasant things are behind”, she said on the phone.
IOC declined to ban the entire Russian team, and left an option for the individual federations to decide who could participate at the Rio Olympics under a series of criteria.
“You heard which conditions were the set forth, and we will be subjected to doping controls”, she continued. “They will shake ?? out nerves all right, but our goal is to put ourselves together and have a decent performance despite of everything, The kind of the atmosphere over there - this is another question. No other choice, we will fight”.
Rodionenko added they will have no problems with the FIG. “Right away the FIG, even before the IOC decision was saying that it did envision the gymnastics competition without the Russian team:, she added ( my comment – is it true?)
