From the article:
Russians Evgenia Tarasova and Vladimir Morozov rallied from an injury to Tarasova’s right leg in the morning practice to finish third with a score of 79.37. Morozov’s blade sliced Tarasova’s leg open requiring fourteen stitches, according to coach Nina Mozer. Despite the injury, Tarasova was determined to skate and the team managed a strong level four triple twist, side-by-side triple toe loops and a squeaky throw triple loop during the spirited outing to “Glam (Electro Swing Remix)”.
“We were thinking about withdrawing because after this incident, we left the ice immediately. There was a long break off the ice, we didn’t know how I would feel in skates,” explained Tarasova about her harrowing morning. “But when I was asked ‘will you skate?’ I said, ‘I will!’ And I wasn’t thinking about the pain during our performance.”
“It was hard for me,” added Morozov. “I was worrying about my partner maybe even more than she was. I tried to support her and to do everything that depended on me. It was totally her decision to skate. She is a hero for all our country and for me.”
