"only" a silver and a bronze medal for :ITA in Today's team events

 

still, a very good start of the season for us (at least, where possible...the women's sabre is just a lost cause), given that we have (even too much) rejuvenated teams in all the weapons, except for Foil

But Fiamingo and Santuccio will return this season? What hurts the most is that Federico Vismara ended his career at the age of 27. Marco Fichera did the same after Tokyo 2021. Such fencers will be missed. As for women's sabre the Italian coach from Bologna led the Ukrainians to gold at the Olympic Games in Paris. Sure, they have Kharlan and we don't but the rest of the team is pretty average. Maybe the coaching staff for the girls should change, because something has clearly not been right in recent years.

yeah, but she's been raised in :ITA and has always represented :ITA (she won a few medals among the cadets/juniors with our team)

Her mother has lived in Italy for over 30 years and competes for us in veteran competitions. Additionally, she worked in the Italian federation in the epee training staff from 2006 to 2014.

But Poland raised her Mother, it's sad that she was not patriotic and did not have more influance on daughter to represent Poland. Italy is strong enough
