Agreed.I've figured out. Still, I can't avoid comparison with e.g. Alina-Sasha interraction at JO with this. I know there is difference being from one team and from one team Europe on one side and not being one team on the other, yet some more respect towards the winner would suit the older competitors.
Rather in the nature of some of the humans. As I've already said, just compare such behaviour with Alina. She can behave like an adult with dignity. Not only when it doesn't matter who had higher score like at JO, but also when she was beaten last season sometimes, you've never seen something like that from her. And from other Eteri's girls as well, you can see that they all show respect towards their competitors. Also japanese ladies are always very appreciative and warm towards others. I understand some frustration from Liza's side, but that's not the reason why to behave like an old hand towards a rookie.
Was there a season when Alina wasn't sentenced to lose before the real comptition has even started?
2016/2017 - This will be a junior season of Marin Honda.
2017/2018 - This will be an olympic season of Evgenia Medvedeva
2018/2019 - Rika will be "tripleaxelling" her way to all medals.
Well, well.
Yes Alina and Eteri girls are in a class by themselves when it comes to class. Their behavior towards others is always top notch and you never hear them saying negatory word about anyone. They should be a great example for all the up and coming girls on the Russian figure skating scene and everywhere else for that matter.
