normal in principle, we played with them, as if i i don’t think that we lost everything there or made a lot of mistakes, we just gave up chances, didn’t score and scored on us, a good first period, we should have scored our chances, basically like the remaining two periods, a lot of chances that should were to convert, and i think the game would have changed if they had scored one or two goals in the first, i can’t say that we played very poorly in terms of score, yes, but we still need to convert. come forward, let the team open up, then maybe something will be different, but when you play, there are some moments that are missing, maybe you just don’t realize your skill, but you end up with such childish mistakes, you know, that lead to goals, so that’s why a disastrous result, this was the fourth failure for dynamo.

for this we have something else, of course , to celebrate the passing year - this is, of course, a medal. in general, the head of the wrestling federation called the whole year successful, the main achievements were two olympic licenses, quotas for paris 20 and 24 were won by khoslakhanov for men and kaladinskaya for girls, vanesa also won silver at the world championships. and now let's move to indonesia, there at the end of the year a curious event takes place in the rice fields, the kujawi race, and literally in russian this is translated as pushing to...

this festival is timed to coincide with the end of the rice harvest, the essence of the holiday is simple: riders hold running bulls by tails and follow them on... planks across the fields. competitions are held to show the strength and endurance of animals, which are then sold at auction. the length of the route that the entire trio needs to overcome is 30 m. make the artiodactyls run faster than the jacquets by biting their tails. the main difficulty is to ensure that the bulls follow in parallel and do not scatter in different directions, and if the participant fails to do this, then, of course, he wins.

throughout the year they are groomed and watered, regularly cleaned and bathed. a few months before the festival, they begin to give a special massage, the animals are fed the best fodder, some of the cat breeders add medicinal herbs, cheeses, eggs and even beer to the diet. well, how could it be otherwise, if you don’t feed the bull properly, you won’t become a champion. and so he was sports day. kristina kamysh worked in the studio. all the best.
