Beijing, Feb 15, Anatoly Samokhvalov. Russian figure skater Alexandra Trusova said that her expectations from the Beijing Olympics did not match reality. Trusova finished fourth in the short program at the Beijing Olympics. The figure skater fell while performing the triple axel. «In Crystal» (in training) I very rarely made mistakes on it, and this time (in training in Beijing) I almost did not make mistakes. It was a long-awaited performance. I usually worry and can't ( axel) to do. This time I don’t understand what happened. I imagined the Olympics differently. I can’t say, just different impressions. After I fell off the axel, everything was easy. I got points that always happen when I I’m falling off the axel,” Trusova told reporters. The figure skater explained that she didn’t plan to give up the triple axel. “I have already said that this is my goal, I want to achieve it, no matter who skated how, what competitions, I need to do this jump. If I jump the axel, then there is a possibility that I will win Olympic gold,” said Trusova.
