Manuela Mölgg: “Fighting is my strength”

Sofia Goggia, bronze medal: "I'm so happy. I deserve this medal and I enjoy it. After the departure I was very disappointed, but perhaps it took this disappointment to understand what I really wanted. The most bitter thing was certainly the Super-G, where I skied over the slope without a fight. However, I did the giant slalom without having trained in this discipline in the last month. The medal came in the discipline where I least expected it. I hit the target with the last shot.” Manuela Mölgg, 6th place: “I actually managed everything well. After the first round I was in pain (abdominal muscles, editor's note), but fighting is my greatest strength. I'm happy for Sofia Goggia with her medal, but at the same time I feel sorry for Federica Brignone, who narrowly missed the podium. There are three Azzurres in the first six places – and Marta Bassino still has many World Championships ahead of her.” Federica Brignone, 4th place: “I attacked from the first goal in the second half. But I should have done that in the first run. Unfortunately I overslept in the morning. In the end I was surprised that I came fourth because I was actually scared from top to bottom of being eliminated. I did my job in the second run – but it wasn’t enough.” Marta Bassino, 11th place: “I tried in both rounds, but something was missing in both. The medal certainly did our morale good. The snow was very soft, but it was for everyone, so we don't even need to look for excuses. The winner was Worley, who proved she could be fast anywhere. You have to take her as an example.”
