“We know how bald horses”, “we are like four supermenki” – said biathlons Weronika Novakowska about yourself and koleżankach before the start of 4×6 km relay world championships in Kontiolahti. Polish women have to survive another disappointment, however.
Each of the four: Nowakowska-Potato, Monika Hojnisz, Krystyna Palka and Magdalena Gwizdon has already recorded successes in individual starts, but never managed to jot down an equally spectacular results in the relay. On Friday, took 13th place.
It does not seem that the failure was due to any conflicts or disagreements between members the team. They come out of himself with warmth, trust, and respect.
The silver and bronze medalist of the ongoing championship Nowakowska-Potato, speaking of koleżankach, using terms such as “my girls” or “my baby”.
“A lot to learn from them. They are with us these four supermenki, but each is very different. If I want to have fun, I’m going to Krysia, because I know that it is Sli; when I need peace, willing to meet with Monika “- she explained.
Former world champion in men’s 20 km Tomasz Sikora said earlier that the four of them together and honestly could enjoy the medals the athletes.
“The atmosphere is very cool, these results really + wound up + girls. All very positive approached the success of Veronica, moreover, two of them – Monika and Krystal – have already had medals World Cup, while Magda was on the podium of the World Cup . Until it was nice to look at, as enjoyed together “- reported.
Hojnisz noted in turn that “predicted” a colleague that the most important moment will rise to the task.
“I remember the situation with the World Cup in Oslo, when one of the gears Veronica came to + stall + (cabin for the players, which fall after the race – PAP) and complained that, as usual, it lacks that one shot, and I just had time clean sheet. I told her: + Wera, fail recover all this myself on the most important events +. I heard only: + Okay, okay … +. When she came to the hotel on Sunday, the latter already a medal, I could tell her: + Do you remember what you I said in a shack in Oslo? + “- remembers with a smile player UKs leader Katowice.
Nowakowska-Potato no secret that although she has in this edition of the World Cup’s most successful, a large part thanks to their colleagues.
“This championship in a sense belong to me, but not osiągnęłabym this level of sport, if I had not trained in this group. I already see after my girls, when that + is in the gas + when it is satisfied arms – I know you like bald horses “- assessed.
The 31-year-old Button speaks perhaps in a more subdued way, but there is no doubt that it also appreciates all your friends.
“We have created a very nice group of girls in which only one can not fight for the medals. Good to know that up to four players can be at any time in a decade, or even on the podium” – assessed.
The biggest “unknown” in this group Gwizdoń. The oldest of kadrowiczek (35 years) not particularly like the media attention her person, which manifests simply not talking to their representatives. Also rarely speak about it the other contestants. In the sprint, the first individual World Cup competition in Finland, took seventh place and proved, however, that the sport does not stand out from the rest of the team.
In such moods women joined the relay race of the World Cup. Their performances always involved the hopes and expectations of the fans, but this time I really looked at it that optimism is justified.
However, once again, not everything went as it should. Although easy to identify the culprit Friday competitions, performances of Polish women did not work out in the past, always the same. It is worth recalling their start at the Olympics in Sochi, where the chances of a good outcome had already lost on the first shift, after a fatal shooting button (the accusations of tampering with the rifle before the start, but because of the lack of video content could not confirm anything).
Meanwhile, Friday triumfatorki German women won the relay race three of the six games played this season. It’s easy to guess that in their ranks there is now a completely different atmosphere.
“I had a really good season, and has now been crowned with a gold medal. We approach the last competition without any pressure. I think I was the right decision, I did not compete in the race for 15 km. The youngest contestant should probably run in all six competitions. I look forward to Sunday’s mass start race “- PAP said Franziska Preuss, who represented the German women on the second shift.
And how about the very start spoke to the best in the Polish squad Nowakowska-Potato?
“It will be difficult to run, remembering unsuccessful previous performance. Now a large role will pick up the coach of this team before Sunday” – summed.
