Germanys Felix Loch successfully defended his gold medal in mens luge on Sunday at the Sanki Sliding Center in Sochi. Already owning gold from competition in Vancouver in 2010, Loch posted a combined four-run time of 3:27.526. That included a track-record third run of 51.613. "Im really overwhelmed. We have worked very very hard over the summer," Loch said. "[Coach] Georg Hackl and I are a superb team. He helps me a lot." "We experimented a lot over the summer and it paid off." Russias Albert Demchenko was unable to catch the defending Olympic champion, but snagged a silver medal with a time of 3:28.002. Italys Armin Zoeggeler became the most decorated mens luge athlete of all time with a bronze medal-winning time of 3:28.797 for his sixth medal in as many Olympic appearances. Zoeggeler eclipsed Lochs coach, Hackl, for the all-time mark with two gold, one silver, and three bronze over the Italians career. Canadas top slider was Calgarys Sam Edney, who finished in 11th with a combined time of 3:29.777. Edney will return to the luge track as part of the Canadian team relay squad, with competition beginning in that event on Thursday. Olympic rookies Mitchel Malyk and John Fennell, both 18-year-olds from Calgary, finished 26th and 27th overall, respectively. "I cant complain, its my first Olympics, its a new experience," Fennell said. "The amount of people that showed up for the race was unthinkable.

Vasili Berezutskis stoppage-time goal which gave the Russians a 1-1 draw with England in Marseille at the weekend was greeted like a winner and they will take confidence from that.They will come up against a Slovakian side which needs points, however, after they lost their first fixture 2-1 to Wales. With four third-placed teams going through, a failure to win would not necessarily be fatal for Jan Kozaks side but the need to start collecting points has undoubtedly increased.Slovakia will take heart from the fact they have not lost back-to-back games for more than two and a half years. Vasili Berezutskis late goal gave Russia a point in their tournament opener against England They will also be encouraged by the fact Russia have kept just two clean sheets in their last 16 European Championship finals outings - and won just one of their last six matches.With heavy rain falling in Lille on Wednesday, the retractable roof at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy could be closed for the match.Team newsRussia midfielder Denis Glushakov may start if deemed to be fully-fit following a calf strain after featuring in the last 10 minutes against England.Back-up goalkeeper Yuri Lodygin missed training on Tuesday with a knock.Following a 2-1 loss to Wales on Saturday, Slovakia coach Jan Kozak may decide to make changes to his side, with Ondrej Duda pushing for a start after scoring against Wales shortly after coming on a substitute.Opta statsThis will be the ninth time these sides have faced each other.

Ondrej Duda scored for Slovakia against Wales but it wasnt enough to spare them from a 2-1 defeat in Bordeaux Slovakia are without a goal in 243 minutes against Russia and have scored only one goal in their last four games with them.Three of Russias last four goals scored in the European Championships have come in the final 11 minutes of games.Russia have only managed to score twice in their last four meetings with Slovakia but the scorers - Alexander Kerzhakov (2014) and Alan Dzagoev (2011) - were left out of Russias Euro 2016 pool.Mersons predictionMuch has been made of Russia being poor against England but I thought Roy Hodgsons side were outstanding. Saying that I dont think Russia are as bad as people think. Slovakia may have lost against Wales but they did have their moments against Chris Colemans side. At 1-1 I thought there would be only one winner so fair play to Wales for coming back. I cant split these two sides and think theyll share the spoils in Lille.PAUL PREDICTS: 1-1BettingRussia are Sky Bets 13/10 favourites for the victory with Slovakia given a 9/4 chance while a draw is 21/10.
