The whole top of the sofa in a single room was predictably busy with toys, which the fans throw idols on the ice after their performance. And on a yellowish wall, a mini poster, printed on sheet A-4, was found a little higher: Zagitova froze on it in the initial position for an arbitrary program, and the word "Win!" Was placed over her figure in bright red font. After the demonstration of the room, the Japanese were hospitably invited to a small kitchen, where the operator took a close-up glass of Alina's glass, into which she had long dipped a bag of tea leaves. From time to time, the pictures from the apartment were diluted with the insertions of the skater's Olympic performance and her joyful jumps with the medal on the pedestal, which created a rather tangible contrast.

However, there was one moment that united these two worlds - in the hallway among a bunch of things one could see a gray jacket in which our Olympians went to Pyeongchang. On the left side of the clothes the Russian flag is located at full height - after returning from Korea, Zagitova was torn off by a white scarf, which masked our tricolor. The girl generally seems to like the equipment of the skaters. For a walk with the Japanese journalists that evening she wore another jacket, but also a sports jacket - issued to the members of the Russian national team. And at one of the last interviews she could be seen in a blue sweater with Olympic rings. There is no doubt that after winning the Olympics, Zagitova received not only a smart car from the Russian government, but also a worthy award. Perhaps the girl will think about buying her apartment in Moscow, so as not to shock more Japanese admirers.

In the Land of the Rising Sun, the 15-year-old winner of the Olympics is admired no less than the two-time world champion Medvedeva. She was even sent as a gift a dog of the breed Akita Inu, it was worth only a girl to mention in one of the interviews that she liked this breed during the gatherings in Japan. However, it is necessary to recognize that the truly famous Zagitova became only after the Olympics. Prior to this, a 15-year-old girl, for whom the season-2017/18 is the first at the adult level, seemed like a sudden flash - even when she won in the finals of the Grand Prix and at the Russian Championships. For such an opinion about Aline there were quite serious reasons. First, this is her first season at the adult level, and nerves could at any moment make themselves felt, spoiling even the most champion's performance. At the beginning of the season, it was happening - the girl regularly allowed a fall in the short program.

Secondly, during the triumph of Zagitova in the finals of the Grand Prix, Medvedev was treated for a metatarsal injury to the metatarsal bone of the right foot, so there was simply no serious competitor to the 15-year-old talent in her complex jumps. Thirdly, at the Russian championship, where Alina was the first, finally ahead of Eugene in the confrontation, Medvedeva acted, having just recovered from the damage. However, to the Olympics, both skaters came in the optimal form, and the victory in Phenchang finally put all the issues over. At the moment, Zagitova has almost equaled the authority with the main star of women's single skating in recent years, and receives high scores for the components (artistry, beauty of performance, skating, etc.), which are usually judged very subjectively - in favor of the more popular figure skater.

As for the technical part, Zagitova outperforms Medvedeva from the beginning of the season, if only because she puts all the jumps into the second part of the performance, getting more pluses for them. All this naturally led to the victory of Alina in Pyeongchang, which surpassed the compatriot's result by a little more than a point. To restore the reputation of the undoubtedly the best skater of the world, Eugenia needs to make her program as difficult, and then to cope with it in official competitions. Given that the girl still has problems with her leg (she may soon be assigned surgery), Zagitova is still clearly number one in women's singles. Other news, materials and statistics can be viewed on the figure skating page, as well as in groups of the sports department in social networks Facebook and Vkontakte.
