[phelps 7,696]

unlucky draw and disappointing performances plagued the Italian team...

 

in the women's Epee, Santuccio and Rizzi had to face each other in the round of 16, meanwhile Navarria and Fiamingo were eliminated in the early rounds (in particular, Fiamingo got humiliated by  Vitalis by a score of 15-3 after a truly irritating match)

 

in the men's Foil, 3 guys are still in contention for the medals (and there's no internal affair match in the quarters, so they could all of them get a medal)

on the other hand, Macchi lost badly in the round of 16 vs  Choupenitch...he was leading 11-8 and then had a blackout and took 4 consecutive hits in very few seconds...finally, he tried to comeback from 12-14 down, but a pair of bad ref calls -and unfair behaviour by the Czech guy not punished as it should have been- sealed the deal for Choupenitch and left Macchi empty handed)

43 years (and 11 months) old Embrich wins the individual title... it might be a record for the European championships.

The results of Navarria and Fiamingo recently are becoming more and more irritating... In addition Fiamingo will probably fail in the team again.

how to avoid an Italian clean sweep in women's Foil...just put Errigo and Favaretto in order to face each other in the quarterfinals, then possibly add the 4th Italian in the same quarter of the brackets...and you're guaranteed some new, unexpected gal in the medal rounds 

 

not that we have a truly balanced bracket also in the men's Sabre...Sandro Bazadze, Aron Szilagyi and Gigi Samele all in the same quarter
