Gianmarco Tamberi third at Golden Gala

Gianmarco Tamberi, applauded and cheered by the crowd that flocked to the Olympic Stadium, finished in third place in his own high jump competition in the Roman leg of the Diamond League. The Italian, in fact, jumped 2.27 meters, finishing third tied with Ukraine’s Doroshchuk, failing his three attempts with the pole positioned at 2.30 meters.

Lorenzo Simonelli disappoints at the Golden Gala in Rome in the 110m hurdles. He closes in sixth place in 13.34 on the same track that two months ago had seen him graduate as European champion in 13.05. “This year è started with a bang, too bad for the Olympics because I believed in it – he told Rai – È it was a mistake, it happens but we must not get demoralized. There will be many other opportunities”. Speaking about the evening, he added: “L’Olimpico è always a thrill, but the condition was not that of the European Championships. I am glad I participated, despite everything I am happy because é the audience è super warm”. Frenchman Sasha Zhoya wins in 13.18.

Andy Diaz, Olympic bronze medalist in the triple, wins the Roman leg of Diamond League. To win the Golden Gala he jumps 17.32, while finishing second is Germany’s Max Heb with 17.01 and third is Brazil’s Almir dos Santos with 16.89. “I want to win everything, today I did it in front of this wonderful audience. The world record? I feel I can do it, I feel it in my legs. Today it didn&#39t come out but it will come out soon”. Soì Andy Diaz. “&Eegrave; the first time I compete here, not even Paris was like thisì. Not è the size I wanted but I won”, he concluded.

Leonardo Fabbri, gold medalist the European Championships in Rome 2024, closes the Roman leg of Diamond League in 2° place. The Italian weightlifter è managed to throw up to 21.70 meters, which earned him the place of honor. Triumphing è was, instead, the U.S. Ryan Crouser first with 22.49 meters, a measure that earned him the meet record, while 3° place è went to the other star athlete, Payton Otterdahl, who è stopped at 21.63 meters.

“The fifth throw è was a bad throw, I let myself go and instead it was good, in my opinion almost 23. Unfortunately, my legs were not 100 percent today, but that’s okay, I enjoyed it. È it was nice to get the warmth of the stadium. I want to finish the season throwing 23 meters because I know I am worth it. The past cannotò be changed, you can only correct mistakes”. These are the words of Leonardo Fabbri after his second place in the Rome leg of the Diamond League.

Then, after the nice little joke with Tamberi, who jumped on the shoulders of the Italian during the interview, Fabbri wanted to emphasize how “Gimbo è a great guy, he gives energy to everyone. È he was the first to call me when I was getting results and he did it after Paris as well, that shows the work he is doing”, he concluded.

For the first time in 40 years, the Olympics will not be broadcast in Russia

for-the-first-time-in-40-years,-the-olympics-will-not-be-broadcast-in-russia

Not a single TV channel, streaming platform or cinema in Russia will show the competitions from the Summer Olympics in Paris, which begin on July 26, sports.ru writes. This happened for the first time in 40 years, when in 1984 the USSR boycotted the Olympics in Los Angeles.

The official explanation is that this time only 16 athletes will participate under a neutral flag, without an anthem and in “unpopular sports”. The unofficial thing is that this is a purely political decision of the Kremlin, and heads of federations call those who agreed to participate traitors, homeless people and foreign agents.

Paris Mayor on Russians at the 2024 Olympics: It would be better if they didn’t come

Anne Hidalgo condemned the International Olympic Committee’s decision regarding representatives of the aggressor country, she said already in March.

According to the official, it would be good if athletes from the terrorist country did not participate in international competitions.

“I prefer that they not come. We cannot act as if the invasion does not exist. We cannot act as if Putin is not a dictator who is threatening all of Europe today.”

At the same time, she added that such sanctions cannot be imposed against Israeli athletes, since Israel’s actions are different from Russia’s aggression.

“There can be no talk of imposing sanctions against Israel in connection with the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Because Israel is a democratic country,” the mayor told Reuters.

Theo Hernandez tries to shut down the controversy

In the second half of the challenge between Milan and Lazio Rafa Leao and Theo Hernandez did not participate in the cooling break with their teammates. The two champions remained on the other side of the field and did not join the group that was listening to Paulo Fonseca&#39s instructions.

The behavior è appeared to be a kind of polemic against the coach, who was guilty of keeping the Portuguese and the Frenchman initially on the bench.

In the postgame Theo Hernandez tried to explain: “We had been in for two minutes, we did not need the cooling break. It was nothing against team and coach. Now we have to keep working to win all together. Then people talk, they say things that are not true. Rafa and I are always with the team to help, and è that’s the important”.

These are the words of Paulo Fonseca on the’incident: “There are no problems with Theo Hernandez and Leao, we do not create cases becauseé this week I spoke with both of them explaining my choice, which they accepted. I didn’t see that they stayed on the field during the cooling break, but they had been in for two minutes and didn’t need to stop or directions. The players’s reaction to entering the field è was positive, so let&#39s not create problems that are not there”.

Antonio Conte furious: “Absurd, soì è difficult”

At the end of the match won in extremis against Parma, Antonio Conte è vented: “It’s absurd that the soccer market ends on the third day. You coach players who are going to leave and you find yourself playing with players you haven&#39t coached. Since soccer è is constantly changing I hope we change this rule that è is absurd. We had Lobotka and Anguissa on the field today and I didn’t have any other midfielders on the bench because Iaccarino and Saco who were with us were sold on loan”.

“This is not good and I hope that in the future we will change this rule. Lukaku today è entered with two training sessions, Neres è arrived very recently. Now I hope to use this break to get both of them fit, while Gilmour and McTominay will leave with the Scottish national team and return next week. Soì è really difficult”.

The Parthenopeans triumphed 2-1 thanks to goals from Lukaku and Anguissa, both of which came in the dying minutes: “I told the boys that we have to sweat the three points and always celebrate wins. Every game will be hard-fought and we should sweat it out. We have a path to take. The way we approached these three games, with a small number of players, there’s something to be proud of. Today we had no changes in midfield, è the è absurdityà of starting the championship with the market in progress”.
