1 World League: l’Italia tiene testa all’Australia e cede di misura di Redazione 11 Giugno 2015 – 17:48 Genova. Dopo aver battuto Cina e Russia, le azzurre si fermano con l’Australia: sconfitte 8-7 chiudono al secondo posto il girone preliminare della Superfinal, in corso di svolgimento a Shanghai. Venerdì 12 giugno nei quarti di finale le italiane ritroveranno l’Olanda, ad undici mesi di distanza dalla semifinale choc degli europei a Budapest. Appuntamento alle ore 9 italiane per la tanto attesa rivincita. Era il 24 luglio del 2014 e per un malinteso l’Olanda acciuffò il pareggio su rigore a 7 secondi dalla fine della partita (8-8) che poi vinse ai rigori (12-11). La lezione è servita. Ora è un’altra Italia. Anche oggi con l’Australia si è espressa bene. Sempre avanti ed Australia ad inseguire fino al 6-7 di inizio quarto, siglato da Zagame. A 3’40” del quarto periodo il 7-7 di Chiara Tabani in superiorità numerica. A poco più di minuto dalla fine (1’04”) un rigore ha fatto la differenza; fallo fischiato a Garibotti (il secondo personale) e penalty realizzato da Isobel Bishop (tripletta personale). A pochi secondi dalla fine due occasioni per pareggiare con Bianconi e Frassinetti. Anche a Kunshan la settimana scorsa, nella China Cup, le azzurre avevano perso nella fase conclusiva (9-5) ma avevano giocato alla pari per tre tempi. Oggi, invece,hanno fatto fatto un passo avanti e giocato con grande intensità fino al fischio della sirena. E’ il secondo stop del Setterosa quest’anno in World League dopo l’11-8 del 27 gennaio a Genova24.it - 1 / 2 - 30.09.2021 2 Kirishi contro la Russia.

We are pleased to see continuing strength and commitment from our first division Clubs to the sport. It has been a big year for our athletes, in particular those who competed in Rio with many players having some down time after the Olympic Whirlwind. We were all delighted and proud of the announcement of the Aussie Sharks & Aussie Stingers teams, with 15 NSW players selected to represent Australia; an enormous achievement. Post Rio, Water Polo Australia High Performance Manager Tom Hill said, “Without a doubt we are disappointed in the outcome but in no way of the effort, dedication, commitment and conduct of our players, coaches and support staff that wore the green and gold. Their spirit and resilience in difficult circumstances as our medal hopes were dashed demonstrated how far we have come in many ways this past four years. Thank you to all of our program partners and stakeholders who have made a valuable contribution to what has been achieved during this time.” The First Grade competition this year introduced a new finals format, which saw the first placed team go straight through to the grand final, and second and third placed teams play off for the remaining spot.
