a goal this call between these two clubs. now in winter sports russians tatiana even though a has retained a european crowd and the women's news just outside moscow the twenty one year old beat germany's tatiana hoof not by just over two hundred the second however second place finish was enough for her to have to scrape world cup event to put on one of the track was also the last stop of the world cup season well i gem coming to martini completed the podium it was even over who bossed in the limelight and even said she missed the previous tournament to compare head title defense home for you so we are. now nine hundred seventy two the world of ice hockey witnessed the beginning of what would be one of the greatest rivalries in the history of the game the summit stories forty years later several generations of ice hockey stars gathered in moscow to celebrate the anniversary but for the onion reports. used to be known as the war on the ice in nineteen seventy two i think about well it's more

of the food ration of the game itself which we should i was four years ago after the peak of soviet bicycle to face the best comedian groups the summit series the all time queen of the group from all sides no no school on red square this year there every green skew some youngsters brings back some good old memories we. were very good. but now you're. not so. sure you are you. feel. lucky. thank you. thank you like.

one of the greatest soviet blair soon time when it's sunday yet the chauffeur recalled a conversation with canadian ice hockey i don't feel as busy at all to police after one of the games in nineteen seventeen to hurry up this procedure told me i couldn't much bigger money in the n.h.l. but i said look fella i have a better offer for you come over to the soviet league you'll play for one of moscow's clubs and they'll give you a one bedroom apartment in the capital it's really worth it imo i wonder why he didn't come here. to sleep gratian of the sun with sirius and the first series and kenya settling with the real game this week of soviet russian stars including two heroes from those nine hundred seventy two games yet and yet the shift to can a barely less degraded all stars team with the great disposition to shoot from the thing should the stars of the past may have got older and lost their speed but they showed their skills are still there is there is food for

a microwave opening instead of the hero video that we were one nil down after the first period that quite a serious conversation in the local worker to watch so we made some changes on the line easy and busy getting the shooting. where i want to go as a result it was goes dual food russia at the start of the second period. but the best there is one giving out that easily. although this individual piece of genius by the decent. and treat by the russian rocket red rapped on the final score of seven five the russian. urgency of war here you are you see everybody still in shape even those are your laden one hundred seventy two but it's over they still have the skills to showcase here not suppress of aversion. they were displayed for years that's and seems that how soon they say if nine hundred seventy two times can't diminish the stars of the

summer series return in their own party history. and finally to rugby and russia have suffered a disappointing twenty five nil defeat to remain here in the second match since the wall cup so the best still has to do if they want to build on their success in new zealand and the reports of. rough weather and very strong opponents these were the key challenges for the russian rugby team in sochi heavy rain in temperatures just above freezing point man double trouble in the game against romania. and even those sochi is not the coldest place in russia it was hard for the home team to keep up the gas two weeks ago the bears struggled to beat portugal and eventually ran out winners by just the narrowest of margins thirty three thirty two the final score however the encounter with the romanians proved to be a much tougher encounter and unfortunately for head coach kingsley jones the team's

problem area in the scrum was once again to prove to be a major issue that we know is that this is where you need to improve and here we need to identify players more players more options not position rumanians attack from the first whistle and score at troy after only five minutes the russians just weren't able to come to terms with either their opponents or the conditions as the visitors would add another convert to try to take a twelve lead into the halftime break on day two north and the next on the right here on the skin the bear stunned all players as they tried to get russia back into the match the performance did approve the second half but unfortunately the home side never looked like breaking down the resolute rumania the fans are there for that as well as what they're seeing that it was difficult to go to a really strong group and they have also gained in weight or they're also committed positional mistakes and it's hard to get your goal in. come on over whether we do orders or. not but despite the russian's positive intentions they remain in sweden

crossed the bears try one for a third time to make the score twenty two to nil it and the final penalty or more salt into the wounds as romania would ease to a twenty five zero victory two hundred showed their first defeat and this is on security and nations cup a lesson for the russians after the euphoria of two zero and the team's coach kingsley jones is certain that five years of experience cannot be bought and his team has to go through many challenges until it starts winning today we're not going to speed up to see those players was born and when the conditions are pretty bad the thing we can do with my students is be able to adapt to those positions and make this a fortress you know for russian rugby if there was an equally poor turnout by the fans with the number of spectators struggling to reach double figures it is evident those that russia still have a lot of work to do ahead of their next match against local rivals ukraine on the town's march i think that is

a little steep. and that's all the sports news i have. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else and you hear or see some other part of it and realised everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm tom harpur welcome to the big picture.
