the live scoring website is back...so, I've fixed all the news about today's events (see posts above)...

Errigo defeated Sauer in a very close match.. 2 medals for us

 

[phelps 7,687]

Errigo & Volpi easily through to the semis...

I hope Synoradzka can avoid the usual ITA vs RUS share of medals...

It's a bloody summer for the italian sport... We lost the women's individual gold after 5 years

This was obvious...

now we have to accept the fact that Deriglazova at the moment is the the clear number #1 in this discipline, the new queen of foil...

we don't have anymore the talent (and not even the depth) we used to have...

we have to enjoy each and every medal (silver and bronze, too) like a great result, as it is (and it's always been) in the other weapons...

women's foil is no longer our Gold medals factory...and sooner we understand that, earlier we would have the chance to restart from the beginning and maybe get back where we were...but it will take a lot of time (and for sure it won't happen with the current generations)...

in this frame, I still hope in 1 or 2 "lucky single shots" (possibly at the Olympics) by Errigo and/or Di Francisca (if she can get back to her best shape, sooner or later)...

[phelps 7,687]

c'mon, man! the re-match of the Olympic final (between Szasz, HUN and Fiamingo, ITA...2 of the most decorated epee specialists of the last 10 years) in the round of 32...

and Fiamingo (who won this time, after trying to waste a 14-12 lead) now has to face the former no.1 in the world, Ana Maria Popescu (Branza) from Romania in the next round...

 

p.s. not that she's ever been the slim kind of girl, but nowadays Szasz looks really overweight...she doesn't look a professional athlete at all...

only her immense class allows her to compete at this level...
