Water Polo, Setterosa World Quarters against the United States

Rome, 22 July. (Askanews) – An eighth final encounter with the right attitude to try to turn the world upside down. Setterosa doubles Australia 14-7 (4-1, 6-2, 1-3, 3-1) and enjoys a thrilling quarter in the Water Polo World Championships against the three Olympic champions of the United States, as well as four world champions. It will take place on Monday, July 24th at 4:00 pm local time (9 am Italian time). “There’s still a bit of work because we worked well today in defense for the first two times – coach Celebeau thinks – and then there was a small setback but it wasn’t the Ceterosa I knew who won for fun from the European Championship onwards.

Today, the forward centers are doing well, making good moves and always liberating our shooters. Now we’ve dealt with the quarter-final game against the United States where we’ll have to make them feel the pressure of the match inside or out. They start as favorites and we’ll have to get good at counter-punching and limiting bowlers. But without fear, play as in the last two World Cup matches: in Rotterdam and in Athens we played well against them until the end. We need to turn the page after the bad defeat against Greece, where stress played a bad joke. I was also wrong because I was able to read some phases of the game better and use less space and more physical contact which suits my daughters defensive characteristics.”
