Mikhail Shaidorov

Olympic Games. *

• Ilya and Misha have been friends for quite a long time and are on friendly terms. Ilya rooted for Misha, and Misha for Ilya, but it turned out that Ilya took 8th place, even though he was a candidate for one of the prizes, since he was the favorite. *

• a little about the guys: *

Ilya: tall, 21 years old, Olympic champion skater and a recognized favorite, his parents are also skaters

Misha: a little shorter than Ilya, 21 years old, a skater who has never won gold, but at these games they switched places

• today - *

• Misha skated his first program well, without even falling, which can't be said about Ilya, he was in a bad emotional state and that's why he couldn't pull himself together. He fell twice and had a couple of short skates. *

• When the placings were announced, you realized that Misha took 1st place, that is, gold, but Ilya was unlucky, he took 8th. Understandably, he was a little upset, but as an athlete who should respect his opponents, he went up to congratulate Misha. *

• They hugged and after the awards ceremony everyone went their separate ways. Misha wanted to cheer Ilya up and went looking for him. When he entered the locker room, he found this scene. *

"Ilya is sitting on the bench and covering his head with his hands."

• You can see that he was crying, his face is red.
