Sochi: Russian President Vladimir Putin took a fall on Friday while waving at the crowds following a ice-hockey game with former NHL players.
The Russian leader earlier scored eight goals during the exhibition match which has become an annual tradition.
He played on the "Legends" team alongside Russian hockey stars such as Slava Fetisov and Pavel Bure.
