Paola Egonu’s words

Paola Egonu was the big star (and it could not have been otherwise) in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals between her VakifBank Istanbul and Vero Volley Milano.

The Venetian opposite, top scorer with 21 points in a one-sided match won 3-0 by the European champions in cafica, did not want to comment on rumors of her increasingly likely transfer to the very rivals of the day.

When it came to answering questions in Italian from the Gazzetta dello Sport correspondent, she entrenched herself behind a nonetheless meaningful “then no.”

Earlier, to the local media, she had spoken about the match, “We were good in every single dirty ball. I’m proud of myself, I’m happy, I keep pushing and doing my best.”
