MILAN (ITALPRESS) – To use the words of the President of Coni Luciano Buonfiglio, today also in the tedophorus, is the night before the exams but Italy is doing well its tasks. Tomorrow in San Siro – but also involving the other places that will host the races – will rise the curtain on the Winter Games of Milan-Cortina with an inaugural ceremony from the great signatures (among the most anticipated artists Mariah Carey, Andrea Bocelli, Laura Pausini, Pierfrancesco Favino, Sabrina Impacciatore, Matilde De Angelis, Ghali, Cecilia Bartoli and Lang) and institutional presences Announced the presence of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, there will obviously be the number one of Cio Kirsty Coventry and then various Heads of State and Representatives (for the U.S. Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio). Italy will run with Arianna Fontana and Federico Pellegrino in the head, while Federica Brignone and Amos Mosaner will lead the blue delegation in Cortina

Speaking of Mosaner, it was up to him and Stefania Constantini to inaugurate the commitments in the race of Italy Team. But the day of the blue tandem engaged in the double-mixed tournament was sweet: after the excellent debut against South Korea (8-4), the Olympic and World Championship champions were heavily defeated by Canada (7-2 after six end), interrupting their streak of consecutive victories at 23 games. The warmth of the Arena Santa Giulia has instead pushed the female national ice hockey to a historic victory: 4-1 on France in reassembled and first absolute joy at five blue circles, which in the only participation in Turin twenty years ago had lost all three games. “I’m not surprised – applauds his girls ct Eric Bouchard – We had the advantage of home ice, with an incredible audience. The preparation in Montreal was crucial to this team. We had the opportunity to create a great bond as a group. We are a family, we are all in the same direction and we are on the same wavelength.”.
