Matilde Lorenzi’s sister in tears: "She gave all her strength to Fede"

TG3

Triumphant day for Italian ski cross: Simone Deromedis and Federico Tomasoni won gold and silver medals in the Olympic final at the Winter Games in Milan Cortina. A historic achievement, which Tomasoni dedicated to Matilde Lorenzi, his fiancée who died in 2024 after an accident on the ski slope.

The TG3 heard from his sister Lucrezia, a former skier, who could not hold back her emotion: “This piece of the medal is thanks to her and all the energy and strength she sent to Faith today. It makes me feel good because I know that in this medal there&#8217s also a little piece of her” she told TG3.

“It was she who gave that extra finger to allow him to take the silver. As he was coming down in the final, I knelt in the snow and turned toward the sun. I looked at the sun and not at the phone, then I heard the’explosion of joy and of the commentators…”.
