Denis Vyshegorodtsev, senior coach of the Sambo Department of Children's Sports School "Rus": "The result is gorgeous! To be honest, we came here just to test ourselves, but from the first eounds it became clear that Lera is determined to fight the more mature and experienced athletes, the leaders of the team. In the finals, due to a minor injury, together with the Russian national team coach, we decided to remove Lera from the duel for gold. Together with the silver medal, Valeria Anisimova got a ticket to the adult European Championship, which will be held in May. "
