Milan-Cortina, Abodi: ‘Short track relay brings more glory for Italy’

Rome, 21 February (LaPresse) – ‘27’ frozen!!! The spectacular Italian short track relay team with Pietro Sighel, Thomas Nadalini, Luca Spechenhauser and Andrea Cassinelli wins bronze in the 5000m by a … skate! It was an electrifying, intense race, with sudden changes of pace and twists and turns, pure adrenaline and cheering that shook the stands of the Milano Ice Skating Arena! Once again, Italy was there and proved it knows how to conquer the glory of the podium! Our boys and girls have made us fall in love with short track and other ice sports. Now it is up to us to help build dedicated facilities, starting in Milan, at Rho Fiera, passing through Rome and reaching other major cities. It is time to build on the legacy of the Games’. This was written on social media by the Minister for Sport and Youth, Andrea Abodi.
