A few hours after the very strong emotion that Stefania Constantini and Amos Mosaner gave to all sportsmen and to the entire curling movement, with the gold medal in the mixed doubles, the men's Olympic tournament for the Italian national team led by Joel Retornaz who, flanked by Mosaner himself, by Sebastiano Arman and Simone Gonin, went down on the ice for an immediate match against Great Britain.
A 7-5 knockout came, in a challenge decided on the last shot, with the British point to permanently stretch after Italy had had the chance between the eighth and the ninth end. to catch up or overtake rivals.
A decidedly hard start for Retornaz and his teammates, back in the race on Friday morning (at 2.05 Italian, 9.05 local time) to challenge the great Edin's Sweden, in the first rematch after the semifinal of the last European championship.
