Evgenia Tarasova and Vladimir Morozov (OAR) stood in second after the short, but finished fourth in the long (143.25) and overall (224.93). The team from Moscow also executed a quad twist and showed a strong triple loop, along with strong lifts and spins, however, they doubled their side-by-side triple Salchows and Tarasova went down on the throw triple Salchow.
"We are obviously upset," said Morozov. "We had a chance, a good chance, but we did what we did. It was not enough what we did. We have worked a lot and hard, but we were not able to skate better. The jump and the throw did not work out at the beginning, nerves probably showed. We pulled ourselves together and did the remaining elements well, but we did not get high enough scores as the others had skated clean more or less. We fought until the very end. We did not pay attention to the scores of the others, we focused on our performance. The judging was fair, you got the scores you deserved for your performance."
