The Italian volleyball team has won the World Cup.
"We are a national team at the top of the world, with an average age of 24, never anyone like us, only the USSR which no longer exists. We in sport and those who look at us from the outside are very proud of it: long live volleyball, long live Italian sport long live Italy ". Thus spoke the president of Coni, Giovanni Malagò during the meeting with the President of the Republic.
An important victory that shows how Italy can shine in many disciplines despite a declining football.
“We are very happy, when yesterday we thought of having this meeting with those who had been protagonists in the Volleyball World Cup, I found in her a great attention and sensitivity for her great love for sport and in particular for volleyball. She told us - 'let's organize anyway even if they don't win'. An incredible team, 24 years of average age, born from a formable intuition of President Manfredi which I believe was decisive, to put De Giorgi at the helm of this national team, who added a World Cup to the three already won as a player ".
A great success that saw the match followed by many spectators during a tight match that ended with the Italian victory.
To make the result important there is also the young age of the players, a team among the youngest ever, capable of bringing home the greatest possible result.
The victory was celebrated on TV and in the Quirinale, with the meeting with the national authorities of the moment.
A result that has brought many sports fans closer to volleyball, a sport that is often little considered but which still has its important following.
We know well that there are less popular sports, but they are often real sports, still safe from the media and economic system linked to football and other disciplines that are becoming shows of little real interest.
In conclusion, the Italian national team managed to bring home an incredible result and to renew the attention towards volleyball.
And who knows that this victory does not push many young people to try this sport in the background, perhaps discovering a passion for it.
Let's just hope that the national team players don't immediately become the new faces of sponsors and other sad initiatives.
