Waterpolo World Cup: Setterosa, first win against Hungary 10-9

After the draw on the debut against Canada (7-7), the first victory for the Setterosa arrives at the World Cup in Budapest. Carlo Silipo’s Italy, in a match valid for group A, beat the hosts of Hungary 10-9. A very heavy victory in the home of the European multi-medal winners.

ITALY-HUNGARY 10-9 (3-4, 2-2, 3-1, 2-2)

–

A prestigious victory in the Margaret Island pool filled with fans who flocked to their water polo temple. The Setterosa ruins the party and after the initial fear he recovers, puts the arrow and definitively closes the accounts even if with only one goal difference. Same result as the last one, on April 24 in Tenerife in the World League Europe Final, with which Italy won the qualification for the Superfinal. The Hungarians had returned from 35 goals to Colombia, while the Italians had suffered more than expected in the first outing, drawing 7-7 with Canada. After 48 hours, things have reversed and now it is the blue who rejoice. Friday 24 at 19.30 the setterosa returns to the water for the comfortable match against Colombia in the third and final match of the preliminary round. Following Hungary will challenge the Canadians who will attempt the feat. On Thursday the Settebello in the water at 19.30 (on Rai Sport) challenges Canada instead.
