In St. Moritz Sofia Goggia is ready to impress again
In St. Moritz Sofia Goggia è ready to amaze again
This weekend the Women’s World Cup è in St. Moritz, where two super-Gs will be held. After a fantastic return-to-competition weekend in Beaver Creek, with a second place in the downhill and a victory in the super-G, Sofia Goggia è is ready to amaze again, and with her teammates, starting with Federica Brignone and Marta Bassino. The three Italian stars want to lead their teammates to another great collective performance. Here are their words on the Fisi website.
Federica Brignone: “I really like Sankt Moritz becauseé è a varied and difficult slope, it has a lot of terrain movements and one curve different from the other. There are gates that have a lot of bumps, it can’t be a section where you can’t see anything, like last year that was really tough. Completely different from Beaver Creek, I really like the track, you have to be ready, conditions I like and these challenges stimulate me. In Beaver I couldn’t ski the way I wanted on the downhill, I felt stiff. After the first run maybe I put too many expectations on myself, in the superG I had a good race, it was very easy. there was nothing difficult and I could have done much better the steepest part. The’attitude for’was there, so’as in the women’s giant, although I didn’t feel good in the race in the first run, too bad the’exit in the second run where I was doing much better”.
Marta Bassino: “The giant remains always the favorite discipline, forò the superG I like more and more;. I have seen over the years that I put together one piece after another, for example in sliding where I struggled for so many years, now I feel much improved. I really liked Beaver Creek, it was a complete technical slope, we were coming from Copper where we had had a good training, now we are here without having skied yet since coming back to Europe, but it’s not a problem. I really like Corviglia, especially if it’s sunny. Attitude will come into play, which will make the difference even more than in other races because with overcast skies the visibility gets much worse as there are no reference points. The organizers are working on the course, so we will all be in the same conditions. I am happy to continue with the speedà then we will switch a little bit to the giant during the Christmas break before Semmering”.
Sofia Goggia: “I am very happy with my return, in Copper we had trained very well, I was aware that I had the speed to compete, sometimes when you come back from injuries è it is easier to face the races lightly becauseè nobody expects anything from you, so you should have this attitude always. Last year in Sankt Moritz I won just in superG, we hope to confirm this feeling with Corviglia. We know that it è a strange race, there are no references for the many buns, we will have to do a reconnaissance at the top, focus on the steps to perform. Trying to do my race, cross the finish line and look at the scoreboard what it says. I have done a few days of giant slalom, però the work done over the years at the technical level è remained, after Christmas we will go for a good session to prepare ourselves in the best way on the hard, keep the sensations to get back into the race in Kranjska Gora at the beginning of January”.

Roma-Juventus: Igor Tudor pampers Kenan Yildiz and makes an announcement about Cambiaso and Douglas Luiz
These are the statements made in a press conference by Juventus coach Igor Tudor on the eve of the challenge at the Stadio Olimpico against Claudio Ranieri’s Roma, valid for the 31st day of Serie A.
“I am happy with this my first full week of work. We trained on the two phases, set pieces and physical condition. I saw the boys with the desire to do well. With Roma it will be an important game, but not a decisive one. It’s a difficult match against a team that is going through a very good moment of form. We, however, want to think about ourselves and try to field the things we are working on” began the Bianconeri coach.
“We have to grow game by game. I believe a lot in working during the week. A team with Juventus must be perfect from a tactical point of view, from the style of play to the structure to the defensive phase. I arrived at a rather delicate moment, but now we have picked ourselves up and started pedaling” continued the former Lazio coach.
“I have seen Kenan in five or six trainings. To be a champion you need consistency in performance and this can only be achieved with continuity, especially mental. I see a young man who is serious and focused on soccer. I urge everyone to be consistent in their growth, work and not settle. This is the key of champions: maintaining the same level of play against every team. Yildiz is young and still has a lot of work to do, but the starting point is very good” added the Croatian coach.
“Douglas Luzi and Cambiaso have only recently returned to the group, so they do not have the 90 minutes in their legs. We know that McKennie is a wild card and his pliability will be very useful to us right now. Conceiçao is a smart player and I think he can also play more centrally. He needs time to settle in that area of the field and grow, but I like his mentality and attitude of work” concluded Igor Tudor.
