Ski champion Sofia Goggia watched at the Assago Forum at game 2 of the playoff quarterfinals of the basketball Serie A championship between Olimpia and Reggio Emilia, won by Milan, which brought the series to 2-0.

The Italian skier on the sidelines of the game spoke to the microphones of Reggionline: “What do I like about basketball? The athleticism of the players, the elevation of the jumps, the speed and quickness of the changes of direction, it’s a completely different sport, a team sport, but it’s really nice to watch.” In addition to Goggia, there were also two other champions such as former goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon and MotoGP rider, now tester, Daniel Pedrosa.

Sofia Goggia is enjoying a period of relaxation after a busy season. The champion from Bergamo, a recent guest on the program “Che tempo che fa” on Nine, had admitted that the year had not been easy on a mental level: “When you close the season with a Specialty Cup and an Olympic medal, you cannot be dissatisfied, although perhaps I could have achieved more. It was very difficult on a mental level.”

During the broadcast, Sofia had wanted to send a message to Federica Brignone: “It’s good that Federica doesn’t want to quit, at the end of the day life as an athlete is privileged. We know that our time is determined but we have to take advantage of the moment as long as we are successful and can express ourselves in a certain way. With her and the others we have played the role of the blue avalanche, not with that magnitude but we are still doing it.”
