The words of Ferdinando De Giorgi

Ferdinando De Giorgi, on the sidelines of the opening ceremony at the Auditorium Testori in Palazzo Regione Lombardia of the “40th Sport Movies #38; Tv – Milano International FICTS Fest,” spoke to the microphones of Sportal.it about his Italvolley team’s triumph at the World Cup: “It was a historic result, because we hadn’t won for a long time but above all we did it with a young team that showed great attachment to the jersey and dedication to work. Now we raise the bar, looking forward to the European Championship at home and the Olympics that will close this cycle.”

Closing on the women’s side, with what happened to Paola Egonu: “Meanwhile, I’m sorry that more was said about that than about the thirteen medals obtained by all the national teams and also about the bronze medal itself obtained by the girls. I don’t know her but the topic of social media is important and you have to know how to handle it. The advice I would give in such cases is to turn them off and not look at them as even greats like LeBron James do.”
