Malagò: 'It's difficult to repeat Tokyo in Paris, better in Beijing'

After the 40 medals won in Tokyo 2020 "it will be very hard to do better, but in Paris we will do well anyway. I say instead that compared to the 10 medals won in Korea, at the now close Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, we will do better".

This was said by the president of Coni, Giovanni Malagò, at the presentation of the book Photoansa 2021 underway at MAXXI in Rome.

"Of course at the Snow Games the variables are much more, also because the locations and slopes are almost unknown, but I am optimistic", he added, citing Sofia Goggia's hat-trick last weekend.

"There was this strange atmosphere in the stadium. The delegations had brought as many athletes as possible to see the races and the fans were Marcell's teammates. They were all around the corner where Tamberi's race was. I was in the stands. members of the IOC and I started exactly at the start, Do you know when one feels things? Already at the false start of the final it was clear that the planets were aligning. When I leave this world I can say 'I was there, I saw it '", said the president of Coni, Giovanni Malagò, on Jacobs' gold in the 100 meters in Tokyo 2020 at the presentation of Photoansa 2021 underway at the Maxxi in Rome.
