Paola Egonu and Mazzanti, Papi’s judgment.
The words of Samuel Papi
At the microphones of the sports publication News.Superscommesse.it è spoke Samuele Papi, a great volleyball champion currently second coach in men’s A2 on the bench of Tinet Prata of Pordenone.
"Did I expect that the men’s national team would not make it to Paris 2024 directly from the Pre-Olympics? Honestly no, forò I must say that è it was a really long season and many teams arrived tired. However, I believe that in the end Italy will be quiet looking at the ranking, just do a good Volleyball Nations League. Needless to think now about what è happened. This è a group of very strong guys also mentally, getting to play another European gold always makes you mature, even if è a defeat came. Let them work calmly, è a group that at the Olympics can è do the big thing”.
Closing remark on the women's team, with the farewell of coach Davide Mazzanti after the Paola Egonu case: "It was hard to imagine, although I have to say that I follow more the men's and the things I know are what I read. Since I have been coaching I have però understood one thing: situations can change suddenly. I am sorry because he's a great coach, a serious person who gave Italy a lot. We hope that whoever will come; can do very well".
