This is too precious for words -

Partial translation - "...... the champions are training outside the door: Anna Shcherbakova, Kamila Valieva and the great Alina Zagitova!"
So it truly seems Alina won't skate this season
Edit: it will be decided after the test skates. So, now I only think about whether I should look forward to it or not.
At what other stuff, there will only be one gp event she can go to, andthat will be like rusnats . I doubt we will have euros or worlds, and i think gpf will not be hold in beijing. This year the gp and gpf are not important.. so we will have to see what other comps rusfed will come up with.Can you translate the words? Because the translator from Russian sounds like she will only decide whether or not she will compete at Russian cups, and that for now she is not listed there. Not that she will not compete at all, at GPs and stuff. And she didn’t compete in these, only now this covid season is special ...
Alina and the Dude -

Alina will be surely at the test skates (that is positive information, remember that two hours ago even this wasn't sure). Then, probably according to how she would feel about it she will decide whether she will participate at the Russian Cup. As for the GP, no one still knows how this will work.
There should be one thing mentioned. In 2018 Alina fell twice during the free program and the season ended with her being a world champion. In 2019 she was absolutely superb and the season ended for her after GP final. So, if I could have a voice, I would say that the final decision shouldn't be made just by the cleanness of Alina's performances.
What surprises me is that she went to Novogorsk, got her programs and is still training normally at Sambo, which makes you assume that she plans to compete this season, no?
But I'm thinking that maybe, since she's just starting university, she wants to prioritize adapting to student life... it's her first semester after all, so she must be nervous/excited and all that.
This season is going to be super weird and uncertain for everyone anyway.
I think the fed is involved in many decisions that we are not aware of. I don't think Uni has to do anything with her will to compete.
Yes of course she was happy she just tried not to show it too much because of Zhenya and her disappointment.Love this part:
For example, after the Olympics in Pyeongchang, I was asked many times: "Are you glad you won the Olympic Games?" I don't even know what these journalists wanted to hear ... "No, this is too much for me"? Of course I'm glad! How else? It's the Olympics!
I still remember Alina looking at the journalist who asked her this question at Peyongchang with disbelief
Leaning your way flanker. But there's still a chance she will compete. The pandemic has changed a lot of things in life and sports.So it truly seems Alina won't skate this season
