Olympics: first week completed

So ended the first Olympic week. It's time to bring the first intermediate results. For the results of the Russian national team very disappointing. Contrary to expectations, Evgeni Plushenko was not able to win the men's singles 'Ice Dance' and was satisfied with a silver.





Olympic champion in the discipline became Evan Lysacek (Evan Lysacek).



By the way, it was the sixth gold of Americans at this Olympics. And it seems that this forum will have no real competition in the overall medal standings. The gap between the US team every day is increasing. On the third line rating climbed total team Norway. This was made possible thanks to a double victory in the biathlon.
Emil Svendsen Egle (Emil Hegle Svendsen), disregarding the authority of Ole Einar Bjoerndalen (Ole Einar Bjoerndalen), won a gold medal in the individual race at 20 km.



Living legend biathlon came second ...



Bronze very suddenly shot off himself Belarusian Sergei Novikov



Another gold won the Norwegian biathlete Tora Berger (Tora Berger).



It is worth noting that in the female "prostitutes" was not without Belarusians on the podium. Third at the end of the race came Darya Domracheva.



Her partner on the team, Lyudmila Kalinchik, was only ninth.



Continuing the theme of injuries and falls, we note that only luck saved Keralt Castellet (Queralt Castellet) from severe injuries.



But it does not mean. With the fall - the lot of athletes from "not winter" countries. Olympic champion from the US downhill Lindsey Vonn (Lindsey Vonn) could not stand on skis during the slalom.



In all hockey championship is still without any sensationalism, the Americans beat the Norwegians with a score of 6: 1.



Norwegian fans can only enjoy the success of his other Olympic team.



Although the Americans in the game had quite a hard time.







But Canadians with great difficulty, defeated Swiss with a score of 3: 2. How can you not dance?



The Swiss still have been put on his knees in the shootout.



Obviously, in the hockey tournament is increasingly heating up, and the Swiss did not have quite a bit to the first sensation. We are waiting.
