Sofia Goggia celebrates the successes of Federica Brignone and the other Azzurre: "I have a regret" adds

Sofia Goggia was a guest on Non Stop News, on RTL 102.5, in the company of Enrico Galletti, Giusi Legrenzi, Massimo Lo Nigro and Lucrezia Bernardo. The Bergamo-born champion, bronze medalist in downhill at the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics, is testimonial of the much-listened-to radio station.

The successes of the Azzurre at the Milan Cortina 2026 Olympics were numerous and Sofia celebrates them. “I start with what have been the achievements of Federica Brignone, cha did something extremely great after her injury – she says -. There are athletes who take years to get back to the level they were at before they got hurt; however, when it comes to great champions, in the end their talent beats what can be an adverse fate, and what you really are never dies. I’m happy for all the female athletes who won so many gold medals, Lollobrigida, Vittozzi. I think it was a fantastic expedition by Italy and I am proud to have given, in my small way, my contribution.”

“On the Giant I did not feel disappointed. It is clear that, when you are third in the first run at the Olympics and then you finish eighth, disappointment is also described by the media headlines for what could have been another medal – she adds -. But, to tell the truth, I haven’t been on the podium in the Giant since 2018 in the World Cup. However, I feel satisfied with my race, because I did two heats at a high level. Then, clearly, in the second run the real female Giant Slalom racers, who maybe had gone a little bit slower in the first run, got their act together and skied a little bit harder. However, I took four tenths in both the first and second runs from the winner, so my race was very linear. It is clear that then they reversed positions a bit and this can be seen as a disappointment”.

“I have to say that if I had to have a regret for something, in the case it would be for the Super-G, because I am much stronger in the fast disciplines, although I can ski Giant as well. Being in the lead until halfway down the slope with 65 hundredths of a lead and then making a mistake and not being able to finish the race, I was very disappointed. In the downhill, however, I managed to bring home this bronze” she then emphasizes the champion.

“Right after the Giant I took a plane to come to Andorra, where I am currently. In view of the upcoming World Cup races, we decided to come down to at least try to get my feet on the slope a little bit, and I think it was a good choice to come here after the Olympics in Milan Cortina, also to “switch” right away and continue with what will be the future goals”.
