This time last year, Sofia Goggia had just overcome the critical phase of the nasty injury she sustained in training and was trying to find the strength to return in the best possible way in late fall. Twelve months later, the champion from Bergamo has instead closed the snow season with the knowledge that she has found happiness on skis again.

The class of 1992 athlete wanted to dedicate a special message to her fans through her social profiles: “I do not know on what train the happiness of the song travels, but I know for sure that mine, of happiness, travels with me, on my skis – she wrote -. I have a heart full of gratitude for these beautiful days of training that have just ended”.

“To have the opportunity to ski at the end of April is a privilege that I have rarely, in my career, been able to take advantage of because I simply, at the end of the season, have almost never gotten there – he joint -. When I finished the last lap today, I almost couldn…t believe it… It’s nice, beautiful to be able to feel fully grateful and I know for sure, this happiness that I have and that we have felt these days, we will jealously guard it and bring it to the next gathering, again on the Snow, when they will re-start training”.

“I want to-and we must keep it with Us! Thank you to everyone who shares this ‘journey’ made of dreams and goals, with me” concluded Sofia Goggia, who in the 2024-2025 World Cup season finished third overall, equaling her best career result by winning two races, the Super-G in Beaver Creek on Dec. 15 and the Downhill in Cortina on Jan. 18.

The Stadio ‘Marcantonio Bentegodi’ is preparing to host, on the evening of Monday, April 28, the challenge of the thirty-fourth day of Serie A between Hellas Verona and Cagliari, two teams in the second half of the standings but relatively calm, although not yet arithmetically safe. The Scaligeri, with a win, would go +10 from the third’last place, while a success by the islanders would bring the latter to +8.

The Hellas have not won since March 15 but in the last five they have also lost only once, on April 19 against Roma. Confirmed Tengstadt’s absence, Dawidowicz won&#8217t be there either: both are in lucky. In Paolo Zanetti’s 3-5-2 there will be space for the defensive trio Ghilardi-Coppola-Valentini, while in attack there will be Sarr and Mosquera.

David Nicola’s Cagliari comes from two consecutive knockouts, against Inter and Fiorentina, and has won only one of the last nine games played, against bottom-of-the-table Monza. Unavailable, due to injury, are Yerry Mina and Roberto Piccoli: Palomino is expected to play in the center of the three-man defense, while the’only offensive point of reference should be Luvumbo, with Viola a trequartista.

Probable lineups

HELLAS VERONA (3-5-2): Montipò; Ghilardi, Coppola, Valentini; Tchatchoua, Duda, Suslov, Bernede, Bradaric; Sarr, Mosquera. All. Zanetti.

CAGLIARI (3-5-1-1): Caprile; Zappa, Palomino, Luperto; Zortea, Adopo, Prati, Deiola, Augello; Viola; Luvumbo. All. Nicola.

The curtain on the April 28 competitions of the Madrid tournament has closed far in advance due to the maxi blackout that, from about 12:30 p.m., left all of mainland Spain, as well as Portugal and parts of southern France, without power. In fact, all competitions in the afternoon and evening sessions were postponed until Tuesday, in the hope that the problem that caused the’huge power outage will be effectively resolved.

Thirteen singles scoreboard matches are affected by the postponement: Draper-Berrettini, Tsitsipas-Musetti, Dimitrov-Fearnley (suspended on 6-4, 5-4 – 30-40), Norrie-Diallo, Khachanov-Paul, Tiafoe-Muller, and De Munaur-Shapovalov for the’ATP Masters 1000; Shnaider-Swiatek, Sabalenka-Stearns, Kostyuk-Potapova, Keys-Vekic, Uchijima-Alexandrova and Svitolina-Sakkari for the WTA 1000.

“For reasons beyond the control of the’organization and due to the national blackout that hit Spain on Monday, April 28, the program of the Mutua Madrid Open cannot continue as planned – organizers of the event informed -. The power failure has led to the operational collapse of infrastructure throughout the country, including the Caja Magica”.

“The’organization, after consultation with the relevant authorities, had no choice but to suspend and cancel all sporting activities in order to ensure the safety of the players, fans and staff at the Caja Magica– the note further reads.”

The tournament has activated the appropriate protocols for these extraordinary circumstances, the impact of which is still being assessed by the relevant authorities. An announcement will be made as soon as there are updates. The Mutua Madrid Open recommends that all spectators leave the Caja Magica for safety reasons”.
