KAZAN, January 20, Vadim Kuznetsov. Two-time European figure skating champion Alexander Smirnov said that he hopes for fair refereeing at the Olympic figure skating tournament in China, but in order to avoid disputes, Russian athletes need to perform much better than their competitors. «There is no stopwatch here. The advantage is that the Games will be held in China. This is a friendly country, let's hope that this factor will have an impact. Let's hope that everything will be fair. Hope, but don't make a mistake yourself. As Tamara Nikolaevna Moskvina likes to say, you need to be a cut above so that there is no talk about refereeing,» said Smirnov.
