Peterlini, the first words after the crash: "The surgery went very well, my heart still in pieces"

Today the blue slalomist was operated on in Bolzano to reconstruct the ligaments of her right knee: "They say that time heals everything, I want to try to believe it again".

A broken heart during a cursed heat, the second of the slalom bis in Valle Aurina, European Cup. Yesterday in the early afternoon, Martina Peterlini's Olympic season ended like this, in a moment, with the right knee that gave way and a diagnosis that, a few hours later, was simply a confirmation: rupture of the Crusader, classic, as well as of the meniscus and collateral. Today the surgical operation in Bolzano, and in a few days the process between rehabilitation, recovery in the gym and then on the track will begin, to introduce himself to Levi, in "his" slalom ", at the beginning of next season. “Here I am, in black and white - writes Martina on social media, posting the photo from her hospital bed - Yesterday I broke my anterior cruciate ligament, menisci and collateral ligament. The operation went great, but my heart is still broken. They told me that time heals everything, and once again I want to try to believe it. Thank you for all your messages, the nice words and the "affection received". If it was a blow for the blue slalom, we dare not imagine for the 24-year-old from thirty, who has become the reference point of the national team in this discipline. He will come back, but now it hurts so much.
