it's all up to william like four years ago because marge watches and she russian birds and i compete for a sudden i hear and source. of i'm told should pull in to sort of heartbreak really on day one when you miss out on a bronze medal by just point seven seconds paul also on day two or graf claimed bronze medal for the russians in the speed skating in a free fire zone meters unexpected result for her and a great performance sending a personal best on the way and also a silver medal for russian in the loser of a venture and albert forty two years of age and this is a seven foot lympics didn't quite have enough to get past felix law the german who claims overboard in the end was still an excellent performance by genco and probably was going to be his last ever a limpet games. well it's never crossed to the ice then rich and the crowd pleaser is always the men's ice hockey is the final event at the olympics what are the chances of gold on home ice. well i think if you ask any russian fire

nothing ninety five percent server fans would say this is a goal that russia won more than most be ice hockey gold gone since one thousand nine hundred ninety two was the last time. it was a cia spy but they managed to claim a little bit gold so it's been a long droughts but certainly russia have good chance of favorites with the bookmakers and have a very high powered attack with the likes of you getting malkin under of age can watch incidentally flew in today the n.h.l. stars finishing up in the north america so coming over to the lympics shell stars arrived just a couple of days ago but certainly russia have a very very high powered all feigns birdhouse main worry is even defend some at something the legendary goaltender of. free time olympic champion also agreed with . you would venture that in this task for the coaching staff right now is getting the line sorted out the head coach also has to make sure that the players are

focused and approach every single game like in the final we definitely have some problems with our defense but we're counting on our n.h.l. stars who have experience playing on the bigger ice rinks often says definitely more of our strength though. well also a great resolve for russia's a women's hockey players say we're in action against germany in their first group game we're trailing one to nothing for a long time but responded really well in the first period spies scoring for an ounce of goals to win by four goals to one in the team that's managed by former n.h.l. legend alex a yashin so all in all these shaping up to be a very good game so far. eighty seven nations two thousand one hundred athletes competing in fifteen disciplines and going for a record ninety eight gold medals these are the biggest winter olympics so far in

the world. spigots country almost changed in the past seven years and so on she was awarded the right to host the games with the news a new infrastructure being built from scratch and these have received some rave reviews from the athletes who think it's more you know the village and everything it's closer to. the ice cream kids close to the olympic village so we can go by war and there is not a big security so we feel we feel free and we feel confident one sportswoman who seen the progress close the most is such a local you. of over tennis star is more used to competing in the summer olympics and she's been delighted at the transformation her home city has undergone as is four time grand slam winner maria sharapova who had the honor of carrying the torch into the stadium same and taxi in the same day as you can tailor the knack to matt kenseth best slips in the world. no one really believes me and i am and will never
