The Russian national team retained the second place in the team event at the World Cup aquatic species sport that takes place in Budapest. On the tenth day of the competition, it was not possible to replenish the medal box, Russia still has eight gold, three silver and three bronze awards.
China is in the lead with nine gold medals, the third place is taken by the French team, which has five awards of the highest standard. So far, 33 out of 75 sets have been played.
The Water Polo Technical Committee of the International Aquatics Federation (FINA) has approved the victory of the Russian women's team in the 1/8 finals. Our team defeated the Dutch team with a score of 11:10, but the rivals tried to protest the result of the meeting.
“In the third period, when the score was 8: 8, our attack was going on, there were six seconds left before it was completed, and at that moment the whistle blew,” said the coach of the Russian national team Andrei Belofastov. - We could see from the bench that the Australian referee Daniel Flahive showed the removal of an opponent. Naturally, in this situation, we decided to take a time-out. But Greek referee Georgios Stavridis said there was no removal.
We began to look at the side judge, who is responsible for the siren, and she was on the floor at all ... After a long meeting, the referees finally decided to leave us six seconds of attack without removing the rival. This is weird. It was necessary either to send the Dutchwoman off - or to assign a penalty in our direction for the wrong time-out. The judges did neither.
Yes, this pause allowed our players to take a break, who were tired by the third period, but this episode cannot be considered the key mistake of the match, it did not affect the outcome.
The score did not change, there was even more period left to play. It would be one thing if this happened in the last seconds of the match, and it seems to me stupid to file a protest in such a situation. You need to be able to lose with dignity. In my opinion, this is the agony of the Dutch coach, who for recent times lost all key tournaments. Perhaps Arno Havenga needs to change his occupation, "All Sport quotes.
However, the technical committee, having considered the requirement of the Dutch side, came to the conclusion that the victory of the Russian national team was just, and officially declared the Russians as quarterfinalists of the world championship. This was announced by the President of the Russian Water Polo Federation Andrei Vlasenko.
“I just got a call from the FINA water polo technical committee and said, 'Congratulations, Holland's protest is rejected.' Justice has triumphed, ”Vlasenko said.
The best Russian swimmer failed to make her way to the World Championship final at a non-core distance of 200 m with a complex. Threefold Olympic medalist and the four-time world champion became only 14th (2 minutes 12.88 seconds) and did not make it to the decisive stage. The best time showed Hungarian Katinka Hoshu (2.07.14).
The Russian men's national swimming team did not have enough to get on the podium in the 4x100 m freestyle relay competition.
And they were fourth with a result of 3.12.58. Athletes from the USA became champions, the Brazilians got silver, and the Hungarian national team won bronze medals.
“We wanted to keep up, to stay in the leading group, which in principle happened,” Lobintsev said. -
Quite a bit was not enough before the medal - out of nowhere the Hungarians crawled out, before that they were not visible. The task was to overtake the Italians, since we have approximately equal forces and it worked. "
The chance to compete for medals will be given to the Russian who reached the final in the 100m breaststroke swimming. Moreover, Prigoda set a record for Russia - 59.24 seconds. This, however, turned out to be only the eighth time. The Briton won the selection, ahead of Kirill by almost two seconds - 57.75.
The Russian woman failed to bring the points of the Russian national team to the medal box. In swimming at 400 m, Popova became the eighth crawl (4.07.59).
The victory was predictably won by the American Katie Ledecky (3.58.34), becoming a ten-time world champion. Her compatriot Leia Smith showed the second time, the Chinese woman Li Bingji won the bronze medal. However, the Russian woman did not hide her joy that she managed to get to the final at all.
“I am very glad that I made it to the final of the World Championship,” said Popova. - In the morning I swam on better result, but could not break the Russian record.
And in the evening ... Probably tired. It's unusual to swim like this long distance twice a day. But there is something to strive for. Getting into the finals, you understand that everything is real, that you can fight for medals, ”said the Russian woman.

What is the memory of the water world championship in Budapest - the version of the correspondent "BUSINESS Online"
The World Aquatics Championship has ended in Budapest. Hungary viewed this tournament as the largest sporting event in the history of the city, and the President of the International Swimming Federation (FINA) Julio Maglione recognized the 2017 World Cup as the best of all time, including better than the Kazan tournament two years ago. The sports edition of "BUSINESS Online" sums up the results of the past water world championship.

SWIMMING: THREE "GOLD" PER DAY
The 2017 World Championship can be considered the most successful for Russian swimming in the new century. The national team won 10 medals, and three "gold" won in just one day: Evgeny Rylov on the 200-meter backstroke became the first Russian swimmer for 14 years, who won the World Cup, Anton Chupkov sailed first on the 200-meter breaststroke, and Yulia Efimova expectedly won at a similar distance. Even in the West, the success of the Russians is considered. "Three" gold "in a row - one of better days for Russian swimming in recent years, - noted the American magazine Swim Swam. - Given the doping scandals that have affected Russia, any medal will be questioned by the world community. But Rylov and Chupkov were constantly progressing, and this helped them win. "
WITH better side a swimmer from Bugulma showed himself Alexander Krasnykh... It is difficult to call it the opening of the tournament: he performed at the 2015 World Cup and was noticed by the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Vitalia Mutko who praised him several times in the comments. But in Kazan, Alexander, according to him, was still young and inexperienced. Two years later, he was mature enough to win the first medal of the world championship in solo swimming - "bronze" in the 200 meters freestyle. Ahead of the Reds was an American Townley Has and Sun Yang- both with Olympic medals. It seems that if Alexander continues to develop at the same pace, he will soon not be inferior to them in this status. Also, the swimmer took "silver" in the 4x200m freestyle relay and thus became the most successful athlete representing Tatarstan at the World Championships.
Other swimmers from the Republic at the World Cup - Grigory Tarasevich and Nikita Korolev... Tarasevich reached the final of the 100-meter backstroke, but could not be on the podium, becoming fifth. In the 50 meter swim, the swimmer stopped at the semi-final stage. Tarasevich studied at an American university, and in the States he spends most of training cycle... Korolev was born in Kazan and in this city, in fact, in two and a half years he reached the level of the Russian national team. The history of his take-off is impressive: in 2015, he was involved in the opening ceremony of "Pilgrim" and did not take part in the starts at the World Cup, now he remained one step away from the podium in the 4x100 meter freestyle relay, and in August he will try himself in solo swims of the Universiade.
And Krasnykh, and Tarasevich, and Korolev are trained at the Volga Sports Academy. “We have a growing team, in which 90 percent are our own pupils: Bugulma, Chelny, Kazan. Of those who came to the Russian national team, only Tarasevich. The meaning of creating our team is in a family environment, where close people are gathered who support each other ", - before the start of the tournament in Budapest Main coach the national swimming academy Maxim Dedlovsky.
“We see points of growth in swimming - this is Moscow, the Moscow region, Kazan, St. Petersburg,” Mutko told TASS. Two years later, the first results are visible from the World Championship in Kazan. This year, the option was discussed in which Efimova could represent Tatarstan, which says a lot about the region's capabilities in sailing. The mass character is also growing, as Krasnykh says: “Previously, at the Aquatika school you could swim as much as you wanted - there was practically no one in the pool. Now we can come only at a fixed time - the children's trainings are scheduled for the whole day. "

SYNCHRONOUS SWIMMING: NOW ARTISTIC
If in Kazan the Russian team missed only one gold medal, then in Budapest - two: mixed and combined program of groups. In the second case, the team simply refused to participate, which greatly surprised everyone. Even so, everyone understands that Russia is invincible in synchronized swimming. After leaving Natalia Ischenko and appointment Svetlana Romashina coach, the role of the main soloist passed to Svetlana Kolesnichenko... She never performed in this capacity at an adult level, but still collected absolutely all the gold medals. Becoming the first in free program, Kolesnichenko said that she "showed everything that she is capable of at the moment." The most amazing thing is that four "gold" is not the limit. “We have to work harder and harder. I am satisfied with the result, but, of course, we cannot stop at what has already been achieved, ”added Kolesnichenko.
By the end of the synchronized swimming competition in Budapest, it became known that soon it would no longer be synchronized - FINA voted to use the name Artistic Swimming. Allegedly, this will increase the attractiveness of sports for international Olympic Committee... Now at the Games there are no solo performances - only duets and groups - and there are no mixes. Not only the Russian national team, which could win more gold medals, is interested in the changes in the Olympic program. "Solo should appear at the Olympics," said the Spanish synchronized swimmer She is Carbonel... “We showed the whole world that the mixed music deserves to get to the Olympics,” said the American simultaneous interpreter. Bill May.
But everyone understands that it's not just the IOC. With the name change, there will be a change of accents. The main thing will no longer be synchronicity, which is even in solo performances (you need to match the music), but artistry. “I think this is a plan to overthrow us from leadership positions, - wrote the coach of the Russian national team Tatiana Danchenko on Facebook. “But fuck them, the Russians don’t give up!”
“Suddenly FINA decided to rebrand the sport, which is already perceived only in the context of gelatinous hair, funny costumes and antics before diving,” - wrote the journalist The Associated Press Paul Newberry... The new name for synchronized swimming caused a heated discussion, but there is one thing that cannot be discussed - synchronized swimmers deserve much more attention than they do now. Nobody else in water sports works that hard and spends 9 hours a day in the pool.

OTHER KINDS: JUMP VICTORIES, DEFEAT 5:14
The main sensation of the World Championship in Budapest is that the Chinese jumpers, it turns out, are not always the first. "For the Chinese, this is one of the worst tournaments in recent years," said the Briton Tom Daly, who won gold in jumping from a 10-meter platform. In fact, one should not delude oneself: they say that China is just undergoing a change of generations and they will approach the Olympics in full force. But now Russia was able to take advantage of their weakness: gold, two silver, two bronzes - a very solid performance after the failed Rio. Tatarstan Nikita Schleikher showed the 13th result in qualifying in meter jumping and could not qualify further.
In addition to the Russian national diving team, the women's water polo team was pleasantly surprised at the World Championships. The Russians won the bronze, beating Canada 11: 9. Note that in coaching staff was included Andrey Belofastov, which this winter became the head of the Kazan "Sintez". Before the World Cup, he promised that the national team would “fight at all costs”. As for men, there is progress, but only for the reason that it was already difficult to go down further. In Kazan, the national team took 14th place, and according to the results of the tournament, Sports.ru released an article with the title “Why Russian water polo will not get out of the ass”. Two years later, the team was in 8th place. Most of all, Budapest remembered the match Hungary - Russia, which ended with a score of 14: 5. The Hungarians, of course, knew that their national team was strong, but so ...
In high-diving, Russia was left without medals. Igor Semashko from Tatarstan took 19th place, and Artem Silchenko became the 15th. Silchenko won the bronze medal two years ago. After two rounds, he was in 7th place, but the most difficult last jump allowed him to climb the podium. In Budapest, Silchenko was most likely prevented by the complication of the jumping program, due to which the eminent Briton flew past the top three Gary Hunt... High diving is very dynamic (for example, the winner of the 2013 World Cup Orlando Duque in Kazan became only 6th), and this is one of the reasons why it is gaining popularity all over the world. Photos of jumpers in front of the historical monuments of Budapest scattered across the vastness of the network at the same speed as pictures from Kazan in their time.
ORGANIZATION: KAZAN IS NO LONGER BEST WCH
“FINA President Dr. Julio Maglione in front of 400 people and Hungarian Minister Miklos Seshtak said that this world championship was the best in history,” said the vice-president of the federation in an interview with the official newspaper of the tournament. Tomas Giarfas... - This opinion is shared by many other people. We are delighted with the organization. The main feature of this championship is that it was prepared in a record short time". It was originally planned that Budapest would host the World Cup in 2021. But Mexico withdrew its bid for 2017, and FINA persuaded Hungary to move the tournament to an earlier date.
Newspapers, websites and posters write that the water world championship is the largest sporting event in the history of Hungary. The country has already announced its desire to host the 2024 Olympics, but the application had to be rejected after massive protests. World Aquatics Championship was excellent option to realize the remaining sports ambitions, and, perhaps, that is why Budapest prepared for the tournament in record time. But did Hungary's responsiveness make Julio Maglione it is not yet known whether to leave a flattering review. Most likely, it is a desire to please everyone. Just a couple of days ago, the FINA president said that Kazan had the best world championship in history two years ago. This opinion has objective arguments: there was a swimming pool in Kazan football stadium, all objects were nearby and many services have already been tested in the past sports tournaments which the city hosted.
International Federation swimming made it clear that she likes both Kazan and Budapest - these cities were entrusted with holding the World Short Course Championships in 2022 and 2024. All other FINA tournaments will be held in Asia, so Kazan and Budapest will be the only exits to Europe for the federation in the next 7 years.
