World Cup starts in Lisbon The Russian national team, which flew to Lisbon yesterday, is a fusion of youth and experience. Indeed, along with renowned champions such as Stanislav Pozdnyakov, Sergei Sharikov, Pavel Kolobkov, Svetlana Boyko, Ekaterina Yusheva, Oksana Ermakova, there are very young fencers included in the team with an eye not even on the 2004 Olympics, but, perhaps, already at the 2008 Games. These are Alexey Yakimenko, Artem Sedov, Victoria Nikishina, Lyubov Shutova.
