“Repaid all the sacrifices of a year”
Marsaglia’s happiness after the match: “After the one in Tokyo with the synchro, we’ve now qualified together for Paris. I’m very happy, I’ve been preparing for this competition all year, it came out very well and I couldn’t ask for anything better. I did the first three dives, my best , the fourth very well, on the fifth I went worse than in the morning and then I did well on the sixth. I’m calm and energized for the final, whatever comes comes”.
Tocci is also radiant: “I’m over the moon. It represents all the sacrifices I’ve made. Emotions are skyrocketing, tension, adrenaline, it’s not easy. These races are difficult to face, many hours of competition between preliminary and semifinal, with even the break. Managing all these emotions isn’t easy, but we did it. Tomorrow we’ll enjoy the final”.
