The final seventh and eighth rounds took place in Almaty on Friday, April 10. Our team defeated the teams of Sri Lanka and Mongolia with a clean sheet. Unfortunately, this did not help her rise to first place – schoolchildren from Uzbekistan became the winners. The Russian team consisting of Roman Shogdzhiev, Matfeyi Yurasov, Arseniy Kleshchevnikov, Mikhail Ippolitov and Iliana Masaeva (captain Vyacheslav Borisov) won the silver medal.
