Word to the two blue protagonists of the fantastic double in the super-g of Sankt Moritz.
Saturday 14 December 2019 3 minutes reading time
A dream day, the umpteenth donated by the Italian ski team that, two weeks after the one-two Bassino-Brignone in the giant of Killington, signed another double win, with Sofia Goggia and Federica Brignone first and second in the super-g of Sankt Moritz.
Divided by a single penny, almost like a sign of destiny, and with another star like Mikaela Shiffrin on the third step of the podium at 13 cents, for what is the 11th double win in the history of the Italsci , the third in super-g and all ... in Sankt Moritz, after Putzer-Alessandra Merlin in '99 and the same Karen first before Daniela Ceccarelli in 2001.
"Crazy, it's really a great day - the first words of Bergamo at the finish line - I unlocked myself, I risked as usual, but I wanted this result after Lake Louise. The stick? Things that happen, I put so much strength ... ", laughs Goggia thinking of how much combined in the final of a crazy test, confirming what we had anticipated yesterday, or tomorrow's debut in a new specialty for her like the slalom parallel, perhaps even thinking about climbing the World Cup standings.
At first, as was normal, Brignone did not hide the bitterness for having left his third super-g victory on the plate for a single penny, but the post-race was really just a party. "Of course, losing a victory for so little burns, but I knew that Sofia could have beaten me - the Valdostana confessed - I did a great race, I'm really satisfied with my performance. Another double arrives after Killington, we cannot but be happy â€.
