KAZAN, February 18, Vadim Kuznetsov. The results of the Russian women's biathlon team at The Beijing Olympics highlight the unsatisfactory work of coach Mikhail Shashilov with the team, said two-time Olympic champion Dmitry Vasiliev. The Russian women's team was left without medals in the mass start at the Olympics, which took place on Friday. In total, the team won one silver medal in Beijing — in the relay. «Kristina Reztsova and Uliana Nigmatullina trained separately and looked better than those who worked with Shashilov. It's hard to add something new. I've been talking about Shashilov for two years already — this is our misfortune. This is a misunderstanding women's biathlon in Russia. The results speak for themselves,» Vasiliev said. According to the two-time Olympic champion, he was hoping for awards from the Russian women's team in individual races.
