Huh? 51 00:03:37.791 --> 00:03:38.833 Halt! 52 00:03:39.125 --> 00:03:41.791 She's lacking versatility though. She's got just a handful of means. 53 00:03:43.375 --> 00:03:44.500 Her technique is weak too. 54 00:03:44.583 --> 00:03:45.625 Fence! 55 00:03:45.833 --> 00:03:48.541 And what are you going to do about her speed? 56 00:03:48.625 --> 00:03:51.166 I'll drag her into a positioning bout. 57 00:03:51.250 --> 00:03:54.416 Uhm.

Halt! 59 00:03:55.750 --> 00:03:57.708 I think we're witnessing the birth of a new star here. 60 00:03:57.791 --> 00:03:59.833 but watch the debutant annihilate her. 61 00:03:59.916 --> 00:04:03.125 Pogodina can't seem to do anything about it. 62 00:04:13.125 --> 00:04:14.666 Looks like we have a sensation. 63 00:04:14.750 --> 00:04:17.875 The debutant shamelessly beats the national team's second-best fencer. 64 00:04:18.166 --> 00:04:21.250 And goes to the Final to have a face-off with the team's leader. 65 00:04:28.500 --> 00:04:29.708 So, it's the Final. 66 00:04:29.791 --> 00:04:32.083 Our national team's leader is Alexandra Pokrovskaya. 67 00:04:32.166 --> 00:04:33.583 She's a legendary Sabre fencer. 68 00:04:33.666 --> 00:04:37.333 At 34 years old, she's a multi-time World and European champion. 69 00:04:37.416 --> 00:04:42.166 And the only summit she hasn’t been able to conquer is getting the Olympic gold. 70 00:04:42.416 --> 00:04:43.458 Go on. 71 00:04:44.083 --> 00:04:48.500 The highly experienced Pokrovskaya versus nineteen-year-old Kira Yegorova. 72 00:04:53.583 --> 00:04:54.625 (breathes heavily) 73 00:04:57.166 --> 00:04:58.208 Fence! 74 00:05:01.416 --> 00:05:04.000 Pokrovskaya's attack is impeccable. It's truly textbook stuff. 75 00:05:04.083 --> 00:05:06.125 I think this bout's outcome is as good as determined. 76 00:05:06.208 --> 00:05:08.375 You are being way too assumptive here. 77 00:05:17.583 --> 00:05:18.583 Halt! 78 00:05:26.541 --> 00:05:29.791 It's three nil for Pokrovskaya. It exceedingly looks like a wipe-out. 79 00:05:30.250 --> 00:05:32.625 On guard! Ready? Fence! 80 00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:40.000 Halt! 81 00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:44.166 Woah-woah-woah! Yegorova miscalculated her attack 82 00:05:44.250 --> 00:05:46.875 and accidentally hit Pokrovskaya in the face with her guard. 83 00:05:46.958 --> 00:05:48.291 Let me see. 84 00:05:51.791 --> 00:05:54.958 It's alright. I just need to stop the bleeding, that's all. 85 00:05:55.833 --> 00:05:57.333 She hit through the mask. 86 00:05:58.916 --> 00:06:03.000 Is your head hurting? Are you dizzy? Can you continue? 87 00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:05.083 U-huh. 88 00:06:08.500 --> 00:06:10.291 Alexandra's courage is certainly praiseworthy. 89 00:06:10.333 --> 00:06:12.541 It takes a lot to decide to continue the bout after a hit like that. 90 00:06:12.625 --> 00:06:14.208 Fencer on my left, it's the yellow card. 91 00:06:14.291 --> 00:06:16.208 I'm not so sure Yegorova really deserved this yellow card. 92 00:06:16.291 --> 00:06:17.291 Are you alright? 93 00:06:17.375 --> 00:06:19.125 After all, it was just an accident. 94 00:06:26.333 --> 00:06:28.000 1:3 Yegorova's first hit. 95 00:06:28.583 --> 00:06:30.375 Kira finally opens the score. 96 00:06:35.958 --> 00:06:40.125 Wow, an immense speed, just take a look at her. This girl in on fire. 97 00:06:44.791 --> 00:06:45.875 Fence! 98 00:06:52.458 --> 00:06:54.125 Another attack by Yegorova. 99 00:06:55.250 --> 00:06:58.416 It certainly looks like the fall has thrown Pokrovskaya off her stride. 100 00:06:58.500 --> 00:07:00.833 She finds it hard to get back on track. 101 00:07:05.666 --> 00:07:07.625 That was a hit! This is the Pokrovskaya we know. 102 00:07:07.708 --> 00:07:08.708 Fence! 103 00:07:15.291 --> 00:07:17.666 Just take a look at how one second has changed everything. 104 00:07:17.750 --> 00:07:19.541 What a fantastic Final. I've got to say, 105 00:07:19.625 --> 00:07:21.583 watching their face-off is a real treat. 106 00:07:27.333 --> 00:07:28.333 Fence! 107 00:07:28.916 --> 00:07:30.000 Halt! 108 00:07:31.291 --> 00:07:33.291 Well, well, well. This should be interesting. 109 00:07:33.375 --> 00:07:35.041 Who will the referee give this point to? 110 00:07:35.125 --> 00:07:38.583 Probably no one as the replay clearly shows that it was a double hit. 111 00:07:40.375 --> 00:07:42.458 Attack from the right. A hit to the left. 112 00:07:42.541 --> 00:07:45.125 Hmm. Strangely the point is awarded to Pokrovskaya. 113 00:07:45.333 --> 00:07:46.833 How's that fair? It was clearly a double hit. 114 00:07:46.916 --> 00:07:48.416 Was that a point for her lifetime achievements? 115 00:07:48.500 --> 00:07:50.291 Kira, quit that. Or you'll get a red card. 116 00:07:50.375 --> 00:07:51.875 Left fencer. Mask on. 117 00:08:12.291 --> 00:08:16.125 Experience beat youth, after all. Pokrovskaya takes the gold. 118 00:08:25.875 --> 00:08:27.833 The Final is sure controversial. 119 00:08:28.041 --> 00:08:30.916 Yes, but in terms of how emotionally charged and intense it was, 120 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:32.916 this fight was one of the best I've seen. 121 00:08:41.041 --> 00:08:42.041 Congratulations. 122 00:08:42.125 --> 00:08:45.000 Why don't you just skip the next championship altogether? 123 00:08:45.958 --> 00:08:48.583 They'll give the victory to you all the same. 124 00:08:49.791 --> 00:08:52.583 Well, it is likely you won't even be at the next championship 125 00:08:52.666 --> 00:08:54.875 to see it happen with your own eyes. 126 00:09:09.458 --> 00:09:10.541 DAD 127 00:09:15.625 --> 00:09:17.125 Watch where you're going! 128 00:09:18.791 --> 00:09:20.416 What is it that you want? 129 00:09:30.458 --> 00:09:34.250 KIRA YEGOROVA 130 00:09:39.791 --> 00:09:41.666 KIRA YEGOROVA 19 YEARS OLD LEFT-HANDED 131 00:09:45.333 --> 00:09:46.333 Oh, hi, Kira. 132 00:09:47.166 --> 00:09:49.625 Hello.

I want to have a rest. 197 00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:56.666 Why don't you tell Gavrilov about it? 198 00:14:56.750 --> 00:14:59.583 He'll easily organize a seaside and a good rest for you. 199 00:15:00.166 --> 00:15:03.041 With no right to return to the national team. 200 00:15:06.416 --> 00:15:09.500 By the way, I wonder, who will go to the Grand Prix? 201 00:15:11.750 --> 00:15:12.750 Alexandra? 202 00:15:13.083 --> 00:15:14.291 -Huh? -What do you think? 203 00:15:17.083 --> 00:15:21.250 In Belgium we'll have a day between the individual and the team contests. 204 00:15:21.333 --> 00:15:22.416 So what? 205 00:15:22.625 --> 00:15:25.041 What? Chocolate and waffles, of course. 206 00:15:25.125 --> 00:15:27.500 Aren't you worried that your pants might tear at the seam? 207 00:15:27.583 --> 00:15:30.875 With the training Gavrilov makes us do? Are you kidding? 208 00:15:31.708 --> 00:15:35.083 Gavrilov's coaching someone? I wonder who got the honor? 209 00:15:40.666 --> 00:15:41.708 Halt! 210 00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:45.041 So what? Are you tired? 211 00:15:45.125 --> 00:15:46.541 Not at all, I just warmed up. 212 00:15:47.375 --> 00:15:50.500 So, I suppose, now it's clear who will go to the competition. 213 00:15:50.666 --> 00:15:52.416 Alright then, let's proceed, shall we? 214 00:15:52.500 --> 00:15:55.666 So, it's the tierce, then the quarte followed by an advance-lunge, got it? 215 00:15:55.750 --> 00:15:56.833 - U-huh. - Go on. 216 00:16:00.458 --> 00:16:03.208 What did I just tell you? Do not attack me, you should parry. 217 00:16:03.291 --> 00:16:04.750 Do not try to be faster than me. 218 00:16:04.833 --> 00:16:07.875 Try to trick me instead. Understand? Go on then. 219 00:16:13.916 --> 00:16:15.125 Halt, halt. 220 00:16:17.208 --> 00:16:20.500 You are too hasty again. There's no need for you to show me how fast you are. 221 00:16:20.583 --> 00:16:21.791 I already know you're fast. 222 00:16:21.833 --> 00:16:24.291 Understand that we're not playing whoosh-whoosh-whoosh here. 223 00:16:24.375 --> 00:16:25.958 Here, we are playing jazz. 224 00:16:26.333 --> 00:16:27.333 Can I try again? 225 00:16:27.416 --> 00:16:31.583 No, you can't. There are no second chances here. Certainly not in a fight. 226 00:16:32.500 --> 00:16:34.250 Right, that's enough for today. 227 00:16:49.875 --> 00:16:54.500 My greetings to the national Sabre fencing elite. Congratulations. 228 00:16:55.541 --> 00:16:57.541 The Olympic season was started 229 00:16:58.625 --> 00:17:01.958 with an appalling level of fencing 230 00:17:02.416 --> 00:17:04.291 at the national championship. 231 00:17:05.208 --> 00:17:07.333 As a result, I've got two bits of news for you. 232 00:17:07.416 --> 00:17:09.125 I'll start with a good one. 233 00:17:09.916 --> 00:17:11.791 No one is expecting us to win. 234 00:17:12.458 --> 00:17:16.708 Now it's time for the bad. I am not taking any tourists to the Olympics. 235 00:17:16.875 --> 00:17:19.833 I'll either take there a team capable of winning it 236 00:17:20.375 --> 00:17:22.125 or I'll simply take no one. 237 00:17:23.416 --> 00:17:25.625 Now, the Olympic race has begun. 238 00:17:26.583 --> 00:17:30.833 For some, it's their first time. Others have already been on this journey. 239 00:17:31.125 --> 00:17:33.708 I hope it won't come as a surprise to you 240 00:17:33.791 --> 00:17:35.791 that this will be a tough journey. 241 00:17:37.583 --> 00:17:41.083 Your opponents come with an intention to take away your victory. 242 00:17:42.125 --> 00:17:45.250 I want you to be merciless when dealing with them. 243 00:17:46.000 --> 00:17:49.958 But first and foremost I want you to show no mercy to yourselves. 244 00:17:51.708 --> 00:17:53.875 Alexandra, catch up with her, go on. 245 00:17:54.958 --> 00:17:56.000 Halt! 246 00:17:58.833 --> 00:18:03.333 Now, put on all of your electric gear, pair up and proceed to sparring. 247 00:18:07.333 --> 00:18:11.541 Today I want you to start training on the first piste. Right there. 248 00:18:11.750 --> 00:18:13.250 You referee, I'll start. 249 00:18:49.541 --> 00:18:52.333 So what, are you going to waste time again or shall we just start? 250 00:18:54.250 --> 00:18:56.708 It's alright. Today I'll beat you as is. 251 00:19:01.208 --> 00:19:03.791 Ready? Fence! 252 00:19:07.208 --> 00:19:09.083 Ready? Fence! 253 00:19:23.041 --> 00:19:25.333 Look, Sergey, she will injure her at this rate. 254 00:19:26.125 --> 00:19:28.083 It's okay. Let them figure it out. 255 00:19:28.125 --> 00:19:30.041 Ready? Fence! 256 00:19:39.125 --> 00:19:40.125 Are you alright? 257 00:19:40.208 --> 00:19:41.208 Yes, never better. 258 00:19:41.291 --> 00:19:43.000 Do you want to stop the bout? 259 00:19:43.541 --> 00:19:44.666 Let's keep going. 260 00:19:46.416 --> 00:19:47.416 Ready? 261 00:19:48.375 --> 00:19:49.416 Fence! 262 00:19:56.375 --> 00:19:59.000 Ready? Fence! 263 00:20:11.333 --> 00:20:12.333 How are you? 264 00:20:13.750 --> 00:20:16.958 Wonderful. That was quite an awesome training. It's fun here with you. 265 00:20:17.250 --> 00:20:19.000 I mean, how are your wounds? 266 00:20:20.416 --> 00:20:21.916 They are pretty cool scratches. 267 00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:25.000 They are straight, red and they ache – just the way I like it. 268 00:20:25.083 --> 00:20:28.541 Now, listen... You can't impress anyone here with your strong will. 269 00:20:28.625 --> 00:20:31.625 Since this is clearly not some amateur fencing club. 270 00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:33.291 This is national team. 271 00:20:34.833 --> 00:20:40.375 We are a team here. We are more than just a team though. We're a family. 272 00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:47.833 Right. Some family you are. I just can't wait to become a part of it. 273 00:20:48.041 --> 00:20:51.000 Well, it's not up to you to decide, but the team. 274 00:20:54.416 --> 00:20:57.291 By the way, you could have stopped the bout. I did offer you to. 275 00:20:57.375 --> 00:21:00.083 Yeah? And what was the point of your being there? To look pretty? 276 00:21:00.375 --> 00:21:01.791 Listen, give me this. 277 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:07.166 You can keep trying to show-off your strong will for as long as you want. 278 00:21:07.250 --> 00:21:09.666 Yes, hush-hush-hush. I know it really hurts. 279 00:21:09.750 --> 00:21:11.416 But then make sure to stock on bandages. 280 00:21:11.500 --> 00:21:12.958 It sounds like a threat. 281 00:21:13.041 --> 00:21:15.250 It sounds the way that you want to hear it. 282 00:21:15.333 --> 00:21:18.000 As for threats, one needs to grow up before starting to receive them. 283 00:21:18.083 --> 00:21:22.625 One might find acting on one's threat is impossible due to one's old age. 284 00:21:22.875 --> 00:21:27.291 Now, listen, little one. Without you here, we’ll manage perfectly fine. 285 00:21:27.375 --> 00:21:30.250 However, without the team there'll simply be no you. 286 00:21:30.916 --> 00:21:32.500 You won't manage. 287 00:21:32.833 --> 00:21:35.875 And that's why you keep holding on to each other and to all your accolades. 288 00:21:35.958 --> 00:21:38.041 And keep talking about how your team is your family. 289 00:21:38.083 --> 00:21:40.166 I came here for my victories. 290 00:21:40.250 --> 00:21:44.375 And to achieve my goals I don't need a team. All I need to win is my Sabre. 291 00:21:44.458 --> 00:21:46.125 Everyone here has a Sabre. 292 00:21:48.083 --> 00:21:50.708 And you already saw what they're capable of. 293 00:22:20.166 --> 00:22:22.250 She moves pretty well, doesn't she? 294 00:22:24.166 --> 00:22:27.333 Her speed is the only thing she's got, actually. Just that, nothing else. 295 00:22:27.416 --> 00:22:28.708 You're wrong though. 296 00:22:31.208 --> 00:22:33.333 This girl has a very good instinct. 297 00:22:35.666 --> 00:22:39.166 She's a predator. And she knows how to kill it on the piste. 298 00:22:39.416 --> 00:22:42.166 While your killer instinct has somewhat faded. 299 00:22:47.125 --> 00:22:49.250 Are you actually admiring her, huh? 300 00:22:50.458 --> 00:22:52.125 It's not her we're talking about right now, it's you. 301 00:22:52.208 --> 00:22:53.250 Hmm. 302 00:22:53.916 --> 00:22:56.916 The Olympic season is in full swing. And you're out of shape. 303 00:22:56.958 --> 00:22:59.708 The Olympic season has only just begun. I've still got plenty of time. 304 00:22:59.791 --> 00:23:01.083 No, you've got no time at all. 305 00:23:01.166 --> 00:23:04.500 And besides, these Olympic games are going to be your last. 306 00:23:04.583 --> 00:23:06.541 While right now you're - let's just be honest about it. 307 00:23:06.625 --> 00:23:07.625 Alright. 308 00:23:07.833 --> 00:23:11.250 Right now, you're much weaker that you were before the previous Olympic games. 309 00:23:11.333 --> 00:23:14.125 So, how exactly are you planning to win, huh? 310 00:23:17.041 --> 00:23:19.416 However, you could achieve it with the help of this girl. 311 00:23:19.458 --> 00:23:21.083 She's way too impertinent. 312 00:23:23.208 --> 00:23:26.250 She's too cocky for the team. She's way too unruly. 313 00:23:27.875 --> 00:23:31.458 Well, that's good she's impertinent. And it's actually good that she's unruly. 314 00:23:31.541 --> 00:23:34.541 A wild and cheeky monkey is just the one you need. 315 00:23:35.083 --> 00:23:37.583 You've got to learn to make her play by your rules. 316 00:23:37.666 --> 00:23:41.583 You've got to make her do the work for you. You are the team leader. 317 00:23:53.583 --> 00:23:56.750 Have you gone completely mad? What if it did actually hit me? 318 00:23:57.208 --> 00:23:58.750 It didn't hit you though. 319 00:24:10.500 --> 00:24:13.666 Did no one ever tell you it was rude to look through other people's stuff? 320 00:24:13.708 --> 00:24:17.250 Well, in fact, when it comes to parties, it stops being just your business. 321 00:24:17.291 --> 00:24:18.750 Did you stop to think about me at all? 322 00:24:18.833 --> 00:24:19.833 What do you care? 323 00:24:19.916 --> 00:24:23.208 I care because the invitation clearly states it's a plus-one. 324 00:24:24.083 --> 00:24:26.125 Alright, it's all yours. Happy now? 325 00:24:30.541 --> 00:24:34.875 Well. Kira, I'm sorry. But this plus-one thing won't work unless you come. 326 00:24:40.708 --> 00:24:44.458 Oh wow. You look like a lady. 327 00:24:46.833 --> 00:24:49.041 Do you really want me to go there dressed like this? 328 00:24:49.083 --> 00:24:50.750 Well, if you really don't like it, 329 00:24:50.833 --> 00:24:53.166 why don't you pick something from your own clothes? 330 00:24:55.083 --> 00:24:58.291 But you should know, that this is a very expensive dress. 331 00:24:58.375 --> 00:25:01.666 I bought it at a sale when the discount on it was 70 percent. 332 00:25:02.416 --> 00:25:05.375 I basically pried it from the hands of one crone. 333 00:25:05.458 --> 00:25:09.375 Wait, what is this thing here? What is this stain? Did you eat a burger in it? 334 00:25:09.458 --> 00:25:14.458 Well, as I've just told you, I bought it at a sale with a discount and a stain. 335 00:25:15.291 --> 00:25:17.333 That's why it now comes with a pretty little 336 00:25:17.416 --> 00:25:19.083 clutch that you can use to cover the stain. 337 00:25:19.166 --> 00:25:20.166 Like that. 338 00:25:41.041 --> 00:25:44.291 Alexandra Pokrovskaya, the best athlete of the year. 339 00:25:46.833 --> 00:25:47.833 Thank you. 340 00:25:48.250 --> 00:25:51.708 Alexandra, you've got so many awards that you could open your own Sports Museum. 341 00:25:51.791 --> 00:25:57.333 Thank you. Of course I'll strive not to... become one of the exhibits of this museum. 342 00:25:59.666 --> 00:26:02.500 Alexandra, this is a present from me personally. 343 00:26:02.583 --> 00:26:04.458 It's a seventeeth century Spanish sabre. 344 00:26:04.541 --> 00:26:07.208 Oh. I'll put it here for now. 345 00:26:11.541 --> 00:26:13.166 Thank you. 346 00:26:23.083 --> 00:26:25.083 It's utterly surprising, isn't it, 347 00:26:25.166 --> 00:26:29.041 how a whole life can fit into a twenty- second-long video clip. 348 00:26:29.208 --> 00:26:35.875 I think I would like to add to this video all the training, injuries and defeats. 349 00:26:36.750 --> 00:26:40.875 Then we'd all have to stay here and watch the video for twenty years. 350 00:26:50.041 --> 00:26:51.083 Thank you all. 351 00:26:54.833 --> 00:26:57.041 I'll go to the table before it's all cleared out. 352 00:26:57.125 --> 00:26:58.291 Do you want some sparkling wine? 353 00:26:58.375 --> 00:26:59.416 No. 354 00:27:04.750 --> 00:27:06.208 That's a beautiful dress. 355 00:27:08.250 --> 00:27:10.708 You've got a stain on it lower down there. 356 00:27:12.208 --> 00:27:14.000 I just put on the first garment that I grabbed. 357 00:27:14.083 --> 00:27:15.416 But thank you for this information. 358 00:27:15.500 --> 00:27:18.083 You are welcome. I understand that it's probably not often 359 00:27:18.166 --> 00:27:19.875 that you get to go to this type of parties. 360 00:27:19.958 --> 00:27:21.708 Strictly speaking it's an honorary retirement 361 00:27:21.791 --> 00:27:23.291 send-off so I wouldn't call it a party. 362 00:27:23.375 --> 00:27:27.875 In fact, I would love to retire, you know.

So I agreed to go. 388 00:30:40.541 --> 00:30:44.333 And when I found out you were allowed to hit people with sabres there, 389 00:30:44.416 --> 00:30:47.875 I loved it even more. Because I was a wild child, you know. 390 00:30:47.958 --> 00:30:49.666 And now you've calmed down, is that right? 391 00:30:49.750 --> 00:30:54.583 U-huh. During my first year of fencing training I would just accost people. 392 00:30:55.041 --> 00:30:58.375 I would chase them down the piste brandishing my Sabre. 393 00:30:59.875 --> 00:31:01.625 They would just disqualify me. 394 00:31:02.458 --> 00:31:05.958 My dad would go argue with the judges… and defend me. 395 00:31:07.166 --> 00:31:09.708 So, you are your daddy's little girl then? 396 00:31:10.375 --> 00:31:12.666 I didn't have much of a choice though. 397 00:31:14.458 --> 00:31:17.208 My mom...

I never saw her ever again. 400 00:31:24.708 --> 00:31:26.958 A daddy's girl is not a bad title though. 401 00:31:27.041 --> 00:31:28.041 U-huh. 402 00:31:30.458 --> 00:31:32.000 If only he'd stay off the booze. 403 00:31:36.041 --> 00:31:37.083 This one's mine. 404 00:31:39.166 --> 00:31:42.416 I'm beginning to understand why Pokrovskaya is so afraid of you. 405 00:32:32.333 --> 00:32:33.708 I can slow down a bit. 406 00:32:37.125 --> 00:32:41.666 She's got a fast attack. Her high speed allows her to cut down the distance, 407 00:32:42.916 --> 00:32:44.916 her counter-time is always short, 408 00:32:46.458 --> 00:32:48.958 one thing she never uses is compound attacks. 409 00:32:49.375 --> 00:32:53.208 Positioning bout is her true weakness, how do I drag her into it? 410 00:32:57.500 --> 00:33:01.958 One year is not enough to prepare an inexperienced girl for the Olympics. 411 00:33:05.541 --> 00:33:08.166 Gavrilov... what are you playing at? 412 00:33:11.958 --> 00:33:12.958 WORLD CUP PARIS 413 00:33:13.041 --> 00:33:15.166 She’s the best newcomer at the World Cup in Orleans. 414 00:33:15.250 --> 00:33:18.750 An up to now unknown Russian fencer Kira Yegorova makes it to the Final. 415 00:33:22.500 --> 00:33:23.500 Yes!

There's no way this girl is going to give up so easily. 553 00:46:32.875 --> 00:46:35.208 Pokrovskaya is gaining an advantage. 554 00:46:35.958 --> 00:46:38.708 Kira's fencing speed is simply fascinating. 555 00:46:40.291 --> 00:46:41.875 Wow, what an awesome hit. 556 00:46:53.500 --> 00:46:55.750 Wow. Defence and retaliation in a jump. Great job, Kira. 557 00:46:55.833 --> 00:46:58.250 Finally, we see Kira that we know and love. 558 00:46:59.458 --> 00:47:01.291 Kira is catching up. What a great fight this is. 559 00:47:01.375 --> 00:47:02.875 Neither of them wants to give in. 560 00:47:02.958 --> 00:47:05.791 Could it really be that Kira will end up beating Pokrovskaya 561 00:47:05.875 --> 00:47:07.958 and taking her place on the throne? 562 00:47:25.166 --> 00:47:27.125 Oh, wow. This is truly unfortunate. 563 00:47:32.666 --> 00:47:33.791 How are you? 564 00:47:34.416 --> 00:47:35.458 My leg. 565 00:47:36.000 --> 00:47:37.375 - Your knee? - U-huh. 566 00:47:40.041 --> 00:47:41.666 - Does this hurt? - U-huh. 567 00:47:44.041 --> 00:47:45.416 - And now? - No. 568 00:47:49.291 --> 00:47:51.083 Give me the deep freeze spray. 569 00:47:51.750 --> 00:47:54.791 Unfortunately, situations like this often happen in fencing. 570 00:47:54.875 --> 00:47:57.375 Regardless of all the protective clothes the athletes have, 571 00:47:57.458 --> 00:47:59.541 it is still a combat involving serious weapons. 572 00:48:00.083 --> 00:48:03.750 The injury is not too serious, but I'd recommend playing it safe. 573 00:48:06.333 --> 00:48:08.791 If it's nothing serious, then I will go on. 574 00:48:13.750 --> 00:48:17.875 All I can say is, well done, Yegorova. Despite her injury, she decides 575 00:48:17.958 --> 00:48:20.625 to continue the fight. That takes a strong will. 576 00:48:41.958 --> 00:48:44.250 En-garde, pret, allez. 577 00:48:51.458 --> 00:48:54.625 Well, it looks like her fall is taking a toll on Yegorova after all. 578 00:48:54.708 --> 00:48:57.458 She's definitely having problems with her knee. 579 00:49:17.208 --> 00:49:18.208 Yes! 580 00:49:21.166 --> 00:49:24.541 Alexandra Pokrovskaya wins this highly important competition. 581 00:49:24.625 --> 00:49:26.625 Now the Olympic Games await her. 582 00:49:35.875 --> 00:49:38.458 Unfortunately Kira couldn't overcome the consequences of her fall. 583 00:49:38.541 --> 00:49:42.083 Yes. While Pokovskaya has once again proven that she is not going to give 584 00:49:42.166 --> 00:49:43.916 her throne to anyone without a fight. 585 00:49:58.375 --> 00:50:03.750 Oh well... your ligament is ruptured. That's a nasty injury. 586 00:50:05.000 --> 00:50:09.625 Alright then. You'll need physiotherapy for a while. 587 00:50:09.708 --> 00:50:11.875 Yes, I got that part but when can I resume my training? 588 00:50:11.958 --> 00:50:15.000 I need to prepare for a competition that's in two weeks. 589 00:50:17.500 --> 00:50:19.041 Kira, you didn't get me... 590 00:50:21.125 --> 00:50:24.833 You'll need three months for the injury to fully heal. At the very least. 591 00:50:26.333 --> 00:50:28.375 This season is over for you, Kira. 592 00:50:30.833 --> 00:50:32.000 Wait, what? It's not over. 593 00:50:32.083 --> 00:50:34.666 It just makes no sense. I don't even feel any pain at all. 594 00:50:34.750 --> 00:50:38.083 Of course, you don’t. But just because you've taken painkillers. 595 00:50:41.666 --> 00:50:46.583 Take one every morning and evening. We'll start with these and see how it goes. 596 00:50:47.625 --> 00:50:50.333 I don't need these pills, I'm totally healthy. 597 00:50:52.791 --> 00:50:57.416 Listen to me, Kira. Right now, any sharp movement that you make, 598 00:50:58.000 --> 00:51:00.375 can cause your ligament to tear completely. 599 00:51:00.458 --> 00:51:03.041 And then you'll need a surgery. The best case scenario? 600 00:51:04.291 --> 00:51:06.916 Your career just ends. 601 00:51:24.500 --> 00:51:26.583 What you need right now is just to calm down and have some rest. 602 00:51:26.666 --> 00:51:28.083 And later on we will think of some solution. 603 00:51:28.166 --> 00:51:29.458 I need to be at my training. 604 00:51:30.083 --> 00:51:32.041 Didn't you hear what the doctor just told you? 605 00:51:32.125 --> 00:51:34.416 Don't you understand that you can develop a permanent limp? 606 00:51:34.500 --> 00:51:36.291 I don't give a monkey's. To get to the games, 607 00:51:36.375 --> 00:51:39.083 I’ve been swinging my Sabre in a lousy sports hall since I was eight! 608 00:51:39.166 --> 00:51:41.333 The winning place is mine! I won't give it up to anyone. 609 00:51:41.416 --> 00:51:43.458 - Do you understand? - Listen, what are you stupid? 610 00:51:46.833 --> 00:51:48.750 Right, I'm already running late for my training. 611 00:51:48.833 --> 00:51:52.166 Look, I'm sorry. Please, wait. That's not how I meant it, you know. 612 00:51:52.250 --> 00:51:53.416 Everything’s fine. 613 00:51:53.958 --> 00:51:57.125 Kira, listen. Could you just calm down a bit, please? 614 00:51:57.250 --> 00:51:59.583 But I am calm. Let go. 615 00:52:24.583 --> 00:52:26.458 - Are you leaving right now? - Yes. 616 00:52:28.208 --> 00:52:32.833 I don't know how I forgot that it was today. The time just really flies. 617 00:52:40.875 --> 00:52:42.666 Would you like me to drive you to the airport? 618 00:52:42.750 --> 00:52:44.625 No, don't bother. I've called a taxi. 619 00:52:46.208 --> 00:52:47.708 Hm. 620 00:53:02.375 --> 00:53:04.083 Hmm.

And you could easily tear your ligaments. 724 01:07:06.333 --> 01:07:08.125 You sure know how to pep-talk. 725 01:07:08.208 --> 01:07:11.458 Is it psychological support that you need or shall we start training already? 726 01:07:11.541 --> 01:07:13.458 I wonder what you're capable of. 727 01:07:13.958 --> 01:07:16.333 I sure can hold a Sabre in my hands. 728 01:07:18.791 --> 01:07:22.250 Wonderful. Now all you need is just to learn to fence. 729 01:07:27.458 --> 01:07:31.416 Get comfortable. This will be your workplace for the following month. 730 01:07:36.000 --> 01:07:37.833 - Are you serious? - Absolutely. 731 01:07:42.291 --> 01:07:46.833 I need to find out whether Russian Panther knows how to defend herself. 732 01:07:47.083 --> 01:07:49.416 Are you scared that I might bite you? 733 01:08:25.500 --> 01:08:26.500 Are you okay? 734 01:08:27.500 --> 01:08:28.625 We should proceed. 735 01:08:35.875 --> 01:08:37.750 I don't need any of it. 736 01:08:37.833 --> 01:08:41.000 Do you want to know if I can defend myself? I can't do anything anymore. 737 01:08:41.083 --> 01:08:43.416 Got it? I can't do anything anymore! 738 01:08:45.583 --> 01:08:48.375 Is that all? Now listen to what I will say. 739 01:08:49.500 --> 01:08:52.291 I'm not here to pity you or be a shoulder to cry on. 740 01:08:52.375 --> 01:08:55.000 All fencers get injured and keep fighting through the pain. 741 01:08:55.083 --> 01:08:58.791 So just get used to it. Either that or, if not, then just leave. 742 01:09:34.333 --> 01:09:35.375 On guard. 743 01:09:41.666 --> 01:09:45.833 You must adapt to your injury. You must completely change who you are. 744 01:09:46.666 --> 01:09:51.125 Pain is a good thing. It helps discard irrelevant thoughts and be more focused. 745 01:09:51.208 --> 01:09:54.000 You must learn to use this pain to your advantage. 746 01:09:56.000 --> 01:09:58.041 You won't be able to jump like you did before. 747 01:09:58.125 --> 01:10:00.333 So, you'll need to alter your fencing style. 748 01:10:00.416 --> 01:10:02.208 And this is akin to learning to walk again. 749 01:10:02.291 --> 01:10:04.166 But this is your only chance. 750 01:10:28.458 --> 01:10:31.541 To win, you don't need to be stronger or faster than your opponent. 751 01:10:31.625 --> 01:10:34.916 What you need is to be smarter. You must trick your opponent. 752 01:10:35.000 --> 01:10:38.666 Make them believe that you're weak. Fencing is about trickery. 753 01:10:39.291 --> 01:10:42.291 Trick everyone else and don't let them trick you. 754 01:11:11.333 --> 01:11:12.375 Hello. 755 01:11:16.333 --> 01:11:19.458 Hi there. What are you doing here at this late hour? 756 01:11:19.833 --> 01:11:20.875 And you? 757 01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:26.125 - We are training here. - Can we have your autograph? 758 01:11:27.041 --> 01:11:30.791 On the condition that you won't tell anyone that you saw us here. - Come on. 759 01:11:31.958 --> 01:11:32.958 Alexandra. 760 01:11:37.833 --> 01:11:39.833 - Take it. - Thanks a lot. -Dasha. 761 01:11:42.541 --> 01:11:44.750 - Will you sign it for me too? - Okay. 762 01:11:45.250 --> 01:11:47.375 Why did you have to tie her up here? 763 01:11:50.083 --> 01:11:53.708 She wouldn't listen to adults. So she needed to be disciplined. 764 01:11:54.541 --> 01:11:55.625 So cool. 765 01:12:00.958 --> 01:12:03.791 We'll be rooting for you at the Olympic Games. 766 01:12:40.041 --> 01:12:42.833 Do you still remember your first Olympic Games? 767 01:12:47.666 --> 01:12:49.166 All that was so long ago. 768 01:12:50.416 --> 01:12:54.583 So much so that back then, Russian Panther was knee-high to a grasshopper. 769 01:12:55.125 --> 01:12:59.250 Seriously... what's so special about the Olympics? I don't understand. 770 01:13:00.166 --> 01:13:04.750 Well... The Olympic games, they're like... 771 01:13:06.208 --> 01:13:07.250 Mount Everest. 772 01:13:09.750 --> 01:13:13.833 Everybody wants to conquer that summit but main thing is to make it there. 773 01:13:14.958 --> 01:13:18.916 I know about Everest. I have read... there're all these corpses. 774 01:13:19.625 --> 01:13:23.208 They lie there frozen and nobody even remembers their names. 775 01:13:25.041 --> 01:13:27.000 Yeah. It's the same with the Olympics. 776 01:13:27.958 --> 01:13:29.625 They only remember champions. 777 01:13:30.583 --> 01:13:32.750 This is quite sad. Also, not helpful. 778 01:13:35.583 --> 01:13:37.208 It never gets any easier. 779 01:13:41.875 --> 01:13:44.875 When I first started up in fencing, in the beginning, 780 01:13:46.083 --> 01:13:48.208 I was too afraid to touch a Sabre. 781 01:13:48.875 --> 01:13:51.458 And of course I wouldn't dream of hitting an opponent with that thing. 782 01:13:51.541 --> 01:13:52.875 - What? No way. - Yes. 783 01:13:53.708 --> 01:13:57.000 Gavrilov even wanted to make me leave. He'd say, 'If you can't hit anyone, 784 01:13:57.083 --> 01:13:59.083 why don't you go to the class next door 785 01:13:59.166 --> 01:14:01.458 and learn gymnastics instead and do splits'. 786 01:14:04.458 --> 01:14:06.208 But I would return every day. 787 01:14:06.916 --> 01:14:08.791 And every day Gavrilov kept on telling me, 788 01:14:08.875 --> 01:14:11.541 'You're not the right monkey for this sport. 789 01:14:12.625 --> 01:14:15.833 So, why are you here? You are not going to succeed in it. 790 01:14:17.208 --> 01:14:19.750 I would cry my eyes out after each training. 791 01:14:23.666 --> 01:14:25.666 So why didn't you leave back then? 792 01:14:26.541 --> 01:14:28.166 Because I am very stubborn. 793 01:14:34.250 --> 01:14:35.791 And you're just like that. 794 01:14:45.041 --> 01:14:46.166 So, it's Everest? 795 01:15:15.166 --> 01:15:19.833 Alexandra, can you explain it to me... what for? 796 01:15:26.250 --> 01:15:28.083 It was my idea, I asked her to. 797 01:15:29.583 --> 01:15:30.666 You? 798 01:15:37.333 --> 01:15:42.250 Did your mentor explain to you the reason why I took you on the national team? 799 01:15:43.875 --> 01:15:44.875 No? 800 01:15:46.875 --> 01:15:49.666 I only ever took you on the team so that Alexandra 801 01:15:49.750 --> 01:15:53.500 could have a sparring partner so that she would become stronger. 802 01:15:55.333 --> 01:15:59.833 You happened to be perfect for that role. A wild and talented little monkey. 803 01:16:01.250 --> 01:16:04.625 Of course, you could have made it to the Olympic Games, but then you got injured. 804 01:16:04.708 --> 01:16:06.708 That's unlucky. These things happen. 805 01:16:06.791 --> 01:16:09.750 So... That's it, you've played your part here. 806 01:16:13.000 --> 01:16:14.041 Is that yours? 807 01:16:36.000 --> 01:16:39.166 Alexandra. So, you haven't actually answered my question. 808 01:16:40.125 --> 01:16:41.208 What for? 809 01:16:42.708 --> 01:16:47.416 If only you knew just how much I hate all these talks of yours about monkeys, huh. 810 01:16:48.541 --> 01:16:52.291 My whole life I've been the most obedient little monkey for you. 811 01:16:57.333 --> 01:16:59.875 Do you remember what I told you when you came to me 812 01:16:59.958 --> 01:17:02.708 as a little girl and asked to teach you how to fence? 813 01:17:06.000 --> 01:17:07.041 Yes. 814 01:17:07.375 --> 01:17:09.583 Do you remember what your reply was? 815 01:17:13.500 --> 01:17:15.833 - I'd do whatever it takes. - What else? 816 01:17:16.875 --> 01:17:19.416 - That I'll do whatever it takes. - What else? 817 01:17:21.750 --> 01:17:24.125 I said, I was ready to be a bad person. 818 01:17:25.625 --> 01:17:28.375 That. Your problem, Alexandra, 819 01:17:28.458 --> 01:17:32.083 is that you're constantly trying to be good for everyone. 820 01:17:33.208 --> 01:17:36.791 To be kind. Being a good person is not a profession though. 821 01:17:37.500 --> 01:17:41.583 People don't win Olympic games by being kind-hearted. This doesn't happen. 822 01:17:41.791 --> 01:17:44.833 Understand that this girl still has her whole life ahead of her. 823 01:17:44.916 --> 01:17:47.041 But for you this is the very last chance. 824 01:17:47.125 --> 01:17:49.708 These will be your very last Olympic Games. 825 01:17:51.666 --> 01:17:53.875 Yes. It is indeed my last chance. Yes. 826 01:17:54.000 --> 01:17:56.625 And, trust me, I am actually going to take it. 827 01:17:56.708 --> 01:18:01.458 But the way I want to do it. With dignity. So that I don't feel ashamed later. 828 01:18:01.625 --> 01:18:04.041 Ashamed is what you'll be when years from now 829 01:18:04.125 --> 01:18:06.250 you'll be retired and telling your grandchildren 830 01:18:06.333 --> 01:18:09.875 about the time when you had your very last Olympics and you failed to win it. 831 01:18:59.500 --> 01:19:02.666 It's been a while since you and I had a meal together. 832 01:19:04.708 --> 01:19:07.500 I never fed you something as awful as this junk food. 833 01:19:07.541 --> 01:19:11.416 Do you remember when... you made soup for me for the first time? 834 01:19:13.375 --> 01:19:16.166 That time I... put way too much pepper into it. 835 01:19:18.083 --> 01:19:20.541 - It was all pepper. - I took it stoically. 836 01:19:26.458 --> 01:19:28.125 Dad, let's just go back home. 837 01:19:28.875 --> 01:19:31.458 Who needs this Moscow or the national team? 838 01:19:32.458 --> 01:19:34.958 Let's just live like all normal people do. 839 01:19:36.791 --> 01:19:37.875 Let's go then. 840 01:19:39.333 --> 01:19:42.083 I bet... I can find work in our Grizovets too. 841 01:19:43.166 --> 01:19:44.458 They've got a factory. 842 01:19:44.541 --> 01:19:48.125 We'll go for barbeques in the pine grove just like we did before. 843 01:19:51.541 --> 01:19:54.083 Just don't get rid of your Sabre, alright? 844 01:19:56.875 --> 01:19:59.291 We'll use it as a skewer to put meat on. 845 01:20:02.000 --> 01:20:04.708 Aren't you ashamed to be mocking your daughter like that? 846 01:20:04.791 --> 01:20:07.666 Aren't you ashamed to be saying such utter nonsense? 847 01:20:07.916 --> 01:20:11.125 'Who cares about this Olympics? Who cares about this Olympics!' 848 01:20:11.208 --> 01:20:15.291 Was it in vain that I sacrificed my sleep on weekends to take to your trainings? 849 01:20:15.375 --> 01:20:17.000 Actually, I went there by myself. 850 01:20:17.083 --> 01:20:19.250 That’s more reason to be ashamed now. 851 01:20:22.000 --> 01:20:25.000 And by the way, I... have started saving money now. 852 01:20:26.708 --> 01:20:29.791 To be able to afford going to your first ever Olympics. 853 01:20:38.583 --> 01:20:39.833 You're my D'Artagnan. 854 01:20:58.750 --> 01:20:59.791 Well. 855 01:21:02.583 --> 01:21:04.916 What are you standing? Start the warm-up. 856 01:21:10.541 --> 01:21:11.791 Oh! Look, who's here. 857 01:21:13.375 --> 01:21:16.416 Mademoiselle Yegorova. Is there something you want? 858 01:21:17.500 --> 01:21:19.583 It's just that we have a national team's training now. 859 01:21:19.666 --> 01:21:21.666 And you're standing here, looking reproachful. 860 01:21:22.125 --> 01:21:25.333 Yes. I want to prove that this place is mine. 861 01:21:27.208 --> 01:21:28.750 Yeah? That's interesting. 862 01:21:29.875 --> 01:21:34.333 Alone on the piste, with no partner? I'm afraid that's not possible. 863 01:21:38.833 --> 01:21:40.125 I'll be her partner. 864 01:22:23.041 --> 01:22:26.875 Well, what can I say to that, Alexandra. What a fantastic performance. 865 01:22:29.583 --> 01:22:33.458 But if it's alright with you, I'd like to continue our training. 866 01:22:34.250 --> 01:22:38.083 Come on. Well, ladies, approach your targets. 867 01:23:27.666 --> 01:23:28.666 Right. 868 01:23:41.833 --> 01:23:43.833 OLYMPIC GAMES RIO DE JANEIRO 869 01:23:44.875 --> 01:23:47.625 Kira, don’t you run a risk by coming here, by coming here, 870 01:23:47.708 --> 01:23:50.375 to the Olympics with an injury that hasn’t fully healed? 871 01:23:52.541 --> 01:23:53.625 I am totally fine. 872 01:23:54.791 --> 01:23:56.833 Actually, I think you are risking even more 873 01:23:56.916 --> 01:23:59.250 trying to tease the world-famous Russian Panther. 874 01:23:59.541 --> 01:24:04.416 Okay, the last thing I would wanna do is to tease the world-famous Russian Panther. 875 01:24:04.666 --> 01:24:08.000 But if it’s all the same to you, I’d like Kira to answer the question. 876 01:24:08.083 --> 01:24:10.833 How did you manage to recover so quickly? 877 01:24:12.625 --> 01:24:15.958 That's all thanks to the fact that we've got the best healthcare in the world. 878 01:24:16.041 --> 01:24:17.041 Okay. 879 01:24:18.666 --> 01:24:21.708 Your team had a pretty tough season. 880 01:24:21.791 --> 01:24:25.458 Problems with injuries and team line-up. Has it been hard in this situation 881 01:24:25.500 --> 01:24:28.000 to motivate the team to stay focused on winning? 882 01:24:30.250 --> 01:24:32.583 No, it hasn't. These are Russian women. 883 01:24:33.166 --> 01:24:35.250 If they lack anything, it's definitely not motivation. 884 01:24:35.333 --> 01:24:36.458 I see. 885 01:24:37.583 --> 01:24:38.625 Kira! 886 01:24:45.583 --> 01:24:48.000 You did very well back there. Awesome job. 887 01:24:50.416 --> 01:24:52.666 You helped me quite a bit too. Thank you. 888 01:24:54.833 --> 01:24:58.416 So, you got what you wanted, then. You're at the Olympic Games. 889 01:24:59.791 --> 01:25:02.666 Yes. Even though many doubted I would. 890 01:25:03.291 --> 01:25:06.625 I didn't doubt it. It's just that I was worried for you. 891 01:25:07.041 --> 01:25:09.208 I didn't want you to run such risks. 892 01:25:11.625 --> 01:25:13.166 I will be rooting for you. 893 01:25:40.708 --> 01:25:45.500 This is the biggest moment in an athlete’s life. This is the Olympics. 894 01:25:45.666 --> 01:25:48.541 This is the summit that someone will conquer today. 895 01:25:48.625 --> 01:25:51.208 This is the strongest competition line-up in my memory. 896 01:25:56.333 --> 01:26:00.041 Excuse me, please. Could we switch the channel to women's fencing? 897 01:26:00.125 --> 01:26:01.458 Huh? Switch to what? 898 01:26:03.875 --> 01:26:06.583 Guys, his wife is performing at the Olympics. 899 01:26:11.416 --> 01:26:13.916 Yes, we're expecting today to be very tense. 900 01:26:14.000 --> 01:26:17.625 The strongest Sabre fencers will be fighting for the right to go to the Final. 901 01:26:17.666 --> 01:26:21.208 Nina Pogodina, Kira Yegorova, Alexandra Pokrovskaya. 902 01:26:21.666 --> 01:26:24.333 Today we have to support all of our female athletes. 903 01:26:24.375 --> 01:26:27.791 There are no opponents among them. They'll be fighting there for us. 904 01:26:29.083 --> 01:26:32.333 Pokrovskaya is a true legend of Russia's national team. 905 01:26:36.000 --> 01:26:37.083 Well done you. 906 01:26:40.583 --> 01:26:43.916 From the get-go, in the very first bout she's showing off her fantastic skill. 907 01:26:44.000 --> 01:26:45.916 Yes, Pokrovskaya's confident attacks 908 01:26:46.000 --> 01:26:48.791 leave us no doubt regarding her ultimate goal of coming here. 909 01:26:48.833 --> 01:26:50.916 She won't settle for anything less than Olympic gold. 910 01:26:51.000 --> 01:26:53.375 Kira Yegorova. She is that very girl who recently took 911 01:26:53.458 --> 01:26:56.666 the world of fencing by storm and has already managed to stir things up. 912 01:27:07.125 --> 01:27:08.750 Kira looks very confident. 913 01:27:12.833 --> 01:27:14.375 Victory goes to Kira Yegorova! 914 01:27:14.458 --> 01:27:15.458 Yes! 915 01:27:15.958 --> 01:27:19.250 Russian Sabre fencers are performing remarkably. 916 01:27:19.375 --> 01:27:22.416 If that's their coach's strategy, he must be ingenious. 917 01:27:23.625 --> 01:27:24.833 Good job, Alexandra. 918 01:27:28.416 --> 01:27:32.166 Look at that! The Russian Panther keeps winning on one leg. 919 01:27:32.500 --> 01:27:35.791 As the saying goes, a wounded animal is very dangerous. 920 01:27:37.375 --> 01:27:40.333 Pogodina makes an unfortunate mistake in the second half of the bout. 921 01:27:40.416 --> 01:27:43.416 Sadly, it means the end of these Olympic Games for her. 922 01:27:45.500 --> 01:27:47.000 The Russians suffer their first losses, 923 01:27:47.083 --> 01:27:49.458 while they still have their main opponents to look forward to. 924 01:27:49.541 --> 01:27:51.375 I wonder, can anybody stop them? 925 01:27:53.041 --> 01:27:55.291 Well, we've made it to the semifinals. 926 01:27:55.541 --> 01:27:57.708 Here, Pokrovskaya will face the legendary de Galier. 927 01:27:57.750 --> 01:28:00.833 It was her who snatched the gold from Alexandra at the previous Olympic Games. 928 01:28:00.916 --> 01:28:04.875 De Galier is in impeccable form. She is the World Champion 929 01:28:05.125 --> 01:28:08.541 and the main contestant for the victory. And she’s got a lot of confidence. 930 01:28:08.625 --> 01:28:12.166 Pokrovskaya has no chance. This will be the end of her story. 931 01:28:16.291 --> 01:28:17.750 De Galier deals a blow. 932 01:28:18.625 --> 01:28:21.208 Sooner or later Russia’s luck had to run out. 933 01:28:28.166 --> 01:28:31.333 Alexandra's main task now is to control her emotions. 934 01:28:39.791 --> 01:28:43.000 Pokrovskaya is taking a pause after the first period. 935 01:28:46.833 --> 01:28:49.708 Why are you afraid of her? Stop overthinking it. 936 01:28:50.000 --> 01:28:52.000 - I can't. - But you have to. 937 01:28:52.458 --> 01:28:54.541 Break through this barrier. Just smash through it. 938 01:28:54.625 --> 01:28:57.166 If you're losing, just keep going. You got it? I can't hear you. 939 01:28:57.250 --> 01:28:58.291 I got it! 940 01:28:58.333 --> 01:28:59.916 And move smoother. Come on. Do it. 941 01:29:13.291 --> 01:29:15.333 Look at that, Pokrovskaya is now angry. 942 01:29:15.416 --> 01:29:16.416 Good. 943 01:29:17.791 --> 01:29:18.791 Yes! 944 01:29:18.875 --> 01:29:21.708 Yes! Pokrovskaya is catching up to her opponent! 945 01:29:22.916 --> 01:29:24.083 A hit by de Galier. 946 01:29:26.958 --> 01:29:28.208 And by Pokrovskaya again. 947 01:29:28.291 --> 01:29:30.041 Come on, come on, come on, come on. 948 01:29:35.333 --> 01:29:36.333 It's a win! 949 01:29:36.416 --> 01:29:38.875 That's amazing. The bout seemed as good as lost. 950 01:29:38.958 --> 01:29:42.125 But Alexandra by some miracle managed to change the tides and won the fight. 951 01:29:42.208 --> 01:29:45.833 What an incredible bout that was. Pokrovskaya goes to the Final. 952 01:29:45.916 --> 01:29:48.250 Indeed, Pokrovskaya is a remarkable fencer. 953 01:29:50.250 --> 01:29:53.291 Russia! Russia! Russia! Russia! 954 01:29:53.750 --> 01:29:57.666 That's it. Well done! Well done you! You beauty! 955 01:29:57.916 --> 01:30:00.208 - I actually beat her! - You beat her beautifully. 956 01:30:00.291 --> 01:30:03.333 Right. Go have a rest. Restore your energy for the next fight. 957 01:30:09.916 --> 01:30:12.916 Alexandra. You really need to stop... overthinking it. 958 01:30:13.000 --> 01:30:15.416 - U-huh. - Do you hear me? 959 01:30:16.708 --> 01:30:20.375 U-huh. In just fifteen cuts you'll become an Olympic champion. 960 01:30:20.458 --> 01:30:22.583 Do you hear me? Fifteen cuts, Alexandra. 961 01:30:39.958 --> 01:30:43.958 You let in way too many of her hits. It's all because you just barge forward. 962 01:30:44.041 --> 01:30:45.833 Without watching your opponent. 963 01:30:45.916 --> 01:30:48.208 What else? Why don't you just tie me to the piste? 964 01:30:48.333 --> 01:30:49.500 I would if I could. 965 01:30:52.958 --> 01:30:54.166 Ok now, listen to me. 966 01:30:55.416 --> 01:30:56.500 I know this fencer. 967 01:30:56.916 --> 01:31:00.416 She's going to provoke you. It's crucial that you stay calm. 968 01:31:01.166 --> 01:31:03.666 And just keep doing what we've practiced. 969 01:31:03.916 --> 01:31:05.916 Focus on her torso, and pay attention. 970 01:31:07.875 --> 01:31:12.458 Kira will be fighting an experienced Sabre fencer from South Korea Kin Gan Xin. 971 01:31:15.250 --> 01:31:17.125 Before Yegorova came into picture, 972 01:31:17.208 --> 01:31:19.583 Xin was deemed the fastest female Sabre fencer. 973 01:31:26.291 --> 01:31:27.916 Xin scores the first point. 974 01:31:33.750 --> 01:31:36.333 Yegorova keeps getting hit again and again. 975 01:31:38.875 --> 01:31:40.250 Yes! Yegorova scores. 976 01:31:44.666 --> 01:31:46.166 Don't you take your eyes off her. 977 01:31:46.708 --> 01:31:48.375 Xin prevents Kira from catching up. 978 01:31:48.666 --> 01:31:49.708 Come on, come on. 979 01:32:00.375 --> 01:32:04.541 It's a shame that Yegorova's injury stops her from giving it her all. 980 01:32:05.166 --> 01:32:08.291 I don't get how they let her perform in the Olympics if her knee's injured? 981 01:32:08.375 --> 01:32:11.208 Because it's different from your football where a slightest touch 982 01:32:11.291 --> 01:32:13.291 makes you fall down on the ground and start crying. 983 01:32:13.583 --> 01:32:15.625 Kira now has a short pause to regroup. 984 01:32:21.500 --> 01:32:24.416 Calm yourself down. Just take a good look at her. 985 01:32:44.625 --> 01:32:45.625 And she scores. 986 01:32:49.833 --> 01:32:50.875 Yes! 987 01:32:50.958 --> 01:32:53.041 Now this is the Russian Panther we know and love. 988 01:32:54.083 --> 01:32:55.375 Attack her. Attack her. 989 01:32:56.166 --> 01:32:59.125 Yegorova is on a roll. Nobody can stop her now. 990 01:33:02.041 --> 01:33:03.041 Yes! 991 01:33:04.666 --> 01:33:05.666 Yes! 992 01:33:06.541 --> 01:33:07.666 Yes! 993 01:33:07.750 --> 01:33:12.208 You can call it whatever you like: a big surprise, pure luck, a coincidence. 994 01:33:12.291 --> 01:33:14.208 But she did it. 995 01:33:14.458 --> 01:33:17.416 Now this nineteen-year-old girl from the town of Grizovets 996 01:33:17.500 --> 01:33:19.666 is in the Olympic Games final. 997 01:33:40.416 --> 01:33:44.041 It is common for athletes to be dissatisfied with their coaches. 998 01:33:44.291 --> 01:33:46.833 They consider them bad. That's inevitable. 999 01:33:47.833 --> 01:33:49.416 And I'm ready for that... 1000 01:33:52.625 --> 01:33:55.708 But I just want you to know that all I've ever done... 1001 01:33:55.958 --> 01:33:58.458 I've done it for the sake of your victory. 1002 01:34:02.375 --> 01:34:06.625 You're a fighter. You know it yourself there can be no friends on the piste. 1003 01:34:06.750 --> 01:34:09.875 The piste is the place for just one thing and it's the fight. 1004 01:34:09.958 --> 01:34:12.500 It's quite simple: either kill or be killed. 1005 01:34:16.166 --> 01:34:18.791 I am begging you, please, just switch off your feelings. 1006 01:34:18.875 --> 01:34:20.500 And switch on your instinct. 1007 01:34:21.875 --> 01:34:25.666 Remember what you were like when you defeated her in that fight. 1008 01:34:25.750 --> 01:34:27.708 This Olympics is yours, Alexandra. 1009 01:34:28.208 --> 01:34:29.333 And you must win it. 1010 01:34:49.041 --> 01:34:53.875 So, it's the Olympic Games Final. And it's going to be Russian. 1011 01:34:54.500 --> 01:34:57.250 Yes, these are Alexandra Pokrovskaya and Kira Yegorova 1012 01:34:57.333 --> 01:35:00.416 who will fight for the title of the Olympic champion. 1013 01:35:01.750 --> 01:35:02.791 Thank you. 1014 01:35:14.333 --> 01:35:19.125 Words simply can't describe it. Everyone is so excited to see the Final. 1015 01:35:19.375 --> 01:35:23.375 Regardless of this fight's outcome, it will definitely make history. 1016 01:35:24.916 --> 01:35:28.666 And look, the coach of Russian Sabre fencers goes and sits in the audience. 1017 01:35:28.750 --> 01:35:30.666 I suppose, it's the only right choice. 1018 01:35:30.750 --> 01:35:34.708 It's up to Pokrovskaya and Yegorova now to decide which of them is the best. 1019 01:35:35.541 --> 01:35:36.708 Go on, girl. 1020 01:35:38.375 --> 01:35:41.000 Thanks to all the drama of this fight, for one day, 1021 01:35:41.083 --> 01:35:43.958 sabre fencing has become the most popular Olympic sport. 1022 01:35:44.916 --> 01:35:48.666 The entire world is waiting to see the outcome of this face-off. 1023 01:35:49.208 --> 01:35:52.500 Wow, who would have thought I’d root for Russians so much! 1024 01:35:58.291 --> 01:36:00.000 Can I have some water please? 1025 01:36:26.541 --> 01:36:29.125 Yes, it really looks like it's going to be a very difficult fight 1026 01:36:29.208 --> 01:36:32.708 and most of all emotionally difficult. There's no 'us' and 'them' here. 1027 01:36:32.791 --> 01:36:35.250 Both of the fencers are certainly worthy of this victory. 1028 01:36:54.916 --> 01:36:55.916 Yes! 1029 01:36:56.000 --> 01:36:57.416 Yes! 1030 01:36:59.291 --> 01:37:01.500 So, it's Pokrovskaya who scores first. 1031 01:37:07.083 --> 01:37:09.125 Pokrovskaya is off to a very confident start: 1032 01:37:09.208 --> 01:37:10.583 her experience really shows. 1033 01:37:18.500 --> 01:37:22.375 Meanwhile, Yegorova is not her usual self. As she lets in the third cut in a row. 1034 01:37:22.458 --> 01:37:25.916 Yes, but Alexandra too seems to be unhappy. What's going on? 1035 01:37:26.583 --> 01:37:28.041 Although I don't quite understand 1036 01:37:28.083 --> 01:37:30.750 what Pokrovskaya could be unhappy about in this situation. 1037 01:37:34.333 --> 01:37:37.000 Pokrovskaya scores again. She's obliterating her. 1038 01:37:37.833 --> 01:37:39.083 What's up with Kira? 1039 01:37:41.375 --> 01:37:43.583 Don't you dare doing that, you understand? 1040 01:37:43.666 --> 01:37:46.791 - But these are your Olympic Games. - I don't need a victory of this kind. 1041 01:37:46.875 --> 01:37:48.125 Fight me! 1042 01:37:49.708 --> 01:37:52.750 Throwing fights is not what I taught you to do. Fight me! 1043 01:38:16.375 --> 01:38:17.916 Yes! Good job! 1044 01:38:18.375 --> 01:38:21.166 And it's Yegorova's first hit. Has Kira awaken from her sleep? 1045 01:38:26.416 --> 01:38:27.416 Yes! 1046 01:38:27.500 --> 01:38:29.000 Yegorova scores once again. 1047 01:38:31.333 --> 01:38:32.500 An awesome hit! 1048 01:38:33.791 --> 01:38:35.416 A splitting attack from Pokrovskaya. 1049 01:38:35.875 --> 01:38:38.208 Kira just can't seem to break into the lead. 1050 01:38:43.416 --> 01:38:44.833 Yegorova scores again! 1051 01:38:46.708 --> 01:38:49.625 And again! Kira narrows the gap. 1052 01:38:52.000 --> 01:38:53.250 Come on, darling, come on. 1053 01:38:53.750 --> 01:38:55.458 Pokrovskaya retaliates. 1054 01:38:57.958 --> 01:38:59.625 And Yegorova scores again! 1055 01:39:05.416 --> 01:39:07.166 Yegorova evens the score. 1056 01:39:07.250 --> 01:39:08.375 Yes! 1057 01:39:13.250 --> 01:39:16.041 It looks like Kira's knee injury is giving her trouble. 1058 01:39:16.333 --> 01:39:18.041 The timing couldn't be worse. 1059 01:39:46.708 --> 01:39:47.750 Yes! 1060 01:39:50.791 --> 01:39:53.666 Pokrovskaya takes lead. The score is 14:13. 1061 01:39:54.083 --> 01:39:57.041 She's just one hit away from victory. 1062 01:40:04.208 --> 01:40:06.375 You must not just adapt to your injury. 1063 01:40:06.708 --> 01:40:08.791 You must completely change who you are. 1064 01:40:08.875 --> 01:40:11.708 You must learn to use this pain to your advantage. 1065 01:40:22.208 --> 01:40:25.000 Yes! Yes! Well done! 1066 01:40:25.375 --> 01:40:29.541 Kira successfully overcomes her emotions and lands a very important hit. 1067 01:40:30.708 --> 01:40:33.541 The current score is fourteen all. Now it will be this final hit 1068 01:40:33.625 --> 01:40:36.041 that will determine who the gold medal will go to. 1069 01:41:29.083 --> 01:41:33.166 Yes!
