Guberniev called Korostelev's result in skiathlon worthy

On February 8, TV commentator Dmitry Guberniev called the result of Russian skier Savely Korostelev in skiathlon at the 2026 Olympics worthy.

"A very worthy fourth place. The debut Olympic race. He stayed in the leading group. He was a little behind on the ascents, but at the finish he forced the fight. It was very difficult to reach the prizes objectively. But he became the fourth — a great fellow," Guberniev said in an interview with Sport-Express.

He expressed the hope that the athlete would try to compete for medals in other races.
