At the European Games…

“I must perform better as this one is a more prestigious tournament. I must be satisfied with my performance. We don’t set boundaries for the worst of best result. It’s impossible to go to a tournament making calculations; it would mean that instead of doing your work you are busy with making calculations.”

The days of the cycling tournament at the European Games are June 27, 29, 30.
