two seconds to complete the ten kilometer distance of a joint at the so-called club zero as she was perfect for shooting ranges then i had called of sweden finish second time tonight seconds behind the winner while belorussian diary completed the porter. over to the ice now where russia suffered the thirst defeat under new head coach into liability at the home stage of the euro haka to the channel one cup the hosts consider it forgoes to sweden while managing to score only twice because in the but up of was to get for us. russia and sweden started the question cautiously however isn't it a lovely lady most men didn't seem to be as solid in defense is they were in the opening match of the tournament the swedes will piling on the pressure and finally broke the deadlock midway through the first period stuff from cornwell sent them back home after a week of shock and learning you probably one might think and the gas headed to the dressing room. in the right frame of mind in the middle period sweden's defenseman

cornwell doubled his telly after a powerful shot from the blueline the russians pulled one back having one man up next on the rubble of many in point pass and sergei chirac of found himself on marched on the floor porous and set it to the net three minutes into the third period and the red machine levelled mannerism up well played to the delight of the full back mega sport arena. managed to fly it into the top corner and there are one more assist the crowd was still cheering the home favorite but track cooler took the lead again in just a minute carl crossed and dick ochs also include his name on the scoreboard three two. silver star defenseman cuomo made it two goal lead with his third scoring with a four distance lead shot with ten minutes to go russia threw everything into the final minutes of the game and pulled the goaltender for an extra player but failed to cut the deficit for two was how it finished which are stated time. this is

a big key to the success and we were fortunate to miami and win a lot of hearts don't leave from there and create a lot of chances for that as well it's really it's hard to name the reasons for our defeat right now because we have to analyze our mistakes much we shouldn't be too disappointed so we just have to work hard to improve our play so russia suffered their first defeat with the help however the head coach was optimistic about the lessons his charges can learn from this loss i think we deserve this defeat sweden played really well aggressively and put constant pressure on our defense that's why we made so many mistakes we didn't expect the swedes to play like this we have to draw the right conclusions we understand that from now on all our opponents will play in the same manner. russia will be eager to finish the home tournament on a winning note as they face the czech republic on sunday because i am about out of our team you. know the other game. the day the czech republic defeated finland five

one the victory means the swedes claim the channel one cup without loss of the result of a final game of the competition against the reigning world champions. it's a football now where in the english premier league top of the table mentioned the city prepared to take an arsenal despite sitting face in the standings are serving as men are unbeaten in eight matches winning seven of them and if they claim off for a point on sunday city in may lose their top sportsman rivals manchester united we had one turn you probably do know who it is to do in. the second biggest years who work from home for us it's a massive. we know of course would you want to be a dubious but. mentally prepared and ready to give between two to renew going. ahead of the club world cup final fifa

president sepp blatter has said the news conference in talk reelected for a further term had method many mistakes which he made in the past year but he called on colleagues to continue it with a positive attitude the faith of course also expressed hope there brazil would properly complete its preparations for the twenty fourteen world cup despite the slow progress of construction. but the executive committee is very devoted but we're not so much very devoted to construction because in all the world cups everybody said they will not be ready that they will be ready prandelli but i will myself now take up these local balls on a presidential level and in the pros months or second month of this year to go and meet the head of state. in boxing russia's top heavyweight alexander but their skin has been a very patient injury and contra main the course isn't yet one hundred percent ready for the bout of his dreams against one of the klitschko brothers and

ferdinand now reports the thirty two year old is still at least two points away from the fight of his life. b. . he's known as the russian knight some call him the white lion whatever his nickname for alexander put that in his russia's main contender in boxing his most prestigious division heavyweight rising star in two thousand and four when he won olympic gold he soon gained so it will be taken as a pro punching out one win after another but it can steer a steady course with a single this nation title belt against the king of he'll. go at the man who currently holds five major belts with his elder brother of it dolly adding the w.b.c. crowns to their family collection nevertheless one of the most anticipated belts of

recent years is yet to happen having been called off several times because of injuries or contractual disputes. sometimes the brothers came on i don't want this fight meanwhile some people tell me they don't want those fights it doesn't make any sense let's just be fair and square it was only serious injuries that stopped me from fighting blood in me or on all those who are close to me know that's true i hope we will face each other in the ring sooner or later on satellite our scores on the best way we come here boxing for sure although the question of when is still a pressing one after the pending his w.b.c. title earlier this month but it can his next set to face marco he's the reigning w.b. old cruiserweight champion who a year ago defeated but it can still mate in his lead if after a very controversial split decision which. i would love to see dennis never

deaf face marco hardcourts again but it looks like it's my turn to fight him well i'm ready. i've never picked out opponents but i would fight anyone i have to. go but the sure mark of whom are cool mark expressed a desire to fight alexander the great king and we always pay attention to these kinds of offers which if a man wants to fight let him get the fight is mine and we said yes alexander is also obliged to defend his title against the w.p.a. number one contender has emerged. so the epic battle between the russian knight vet and doctor still harmer dimmock leach go still gives boxing fans waiting making them even more curious though the outcome. with a move it's hard to make any predictions for this fight we will see what happens of course i will train hard to avoid his job it's no secret i will need to break the distance and get inside but it's just words for now let's wait for the fight and

see the talk made real. not many would argue but xander but they're going to still one of the most dangerous threats for police cause rain on the world book seems wrong. but this is why it has to decrease in the name of the sport of boxing itself for a bit party. that finally lay west eleven short late in the thailand golf championship has been reduced to just four ahead of the final day of the tournament south africa is the man leading the chasing pack the twenty seven must start of the round on par with american michael thompson the finish to day one third and that's why it's also four days in the first five and a constant performance up to the ultimate sixteenth lets in the only player with a chance of catching runaway late at westwood the english went in contrast saw his results worsening i said collected during the round and finished one over seventy
