Fantastic fencing from Daria, she made Errigo think a lot, and at this point it's already amazing job. This is highest place by Ukrainian femail foil specialists, and she really improved her fencing in USA

and now?

will our coaches take into consideration a possible switch between Gallo and Torre before Paris?

or will they leave the new European Champion out of the individual event in the French Capital?

and there's still one round left, but in the quarterfinals we might see a very rare  brothers' affair between Jean-Philippe and Sebastien Patrice with a medal up for grabs 

Every time two brothers go up against each other it reminds me of this scene.

after yesterday's triumph, Today  completed the total disaster...

For me it's simply bad. There is no chance for a medal in the men's individual epee: our leader- de Veroli took only one 3rd place in this season. In addition, he will not be seeded in Paris 99%. All that remains is to hope for a medal in the team.

 

The women's saber still has the same problem - missing of individuality for many years. The only thing we can afford is some bronze at the minor European Championships in the Olympic year or post Olympic year and now even that hasn't happened (in theory our athlete with the greatest potential for an individual result - Rosella Gregorio, will not even go to the Olympic Games...). In fact, with such weak material, the team's advancement to the Olympics is a small miracle. Of course, we can't dream about any medals there. Unfortunately, over the last 10-15 years we have not been able to overcome mediocrity when other countries have stars: Ukraine, France, Japan, USA, Hungary and now even Greece and Spain. With the missing of a leader like Kharlan, we can't count on the team winning any medals at a big event indidiwdual and also in the team. The world has moved forward and we stand still in this weapon. Let's be honest, if it weren't absence for Russia, our girls would have watched the games on TV.
