European Swimming Championships: What to do with all the medals?

Shared happiness is double happiness. This is probably how Nicolo Martinenghi (26.33 seconds) and Simone Cerasuolo (+0,62 seconds) will feel. On Tuesday they secured an Italian double victory in the 50-meter breaststroke. Lucas Matzerath from Germany received bronze, he was 69 hundredths behind gold medalist Martinenghi.

There was another double victory in the 200 meter butterfly – but not for Italy. The Hungarians Kristof Milak (1.52,01:2,77 min.) and Richard Marton (+3,00 sec.) shared their joy at the top of the podium. The Azzurro Alberto Razzetti (+16 seconds) won the bronze medal and relegated his compatriot Giacomo Carini to the ungrateful fourth place because of 200 hundredths. Razzetti won another bronze in the XNUMX-meter individual medley later that evening.

Margherita Panziera was able to win another gold medal. She won the 59.40-meter backstroke with a time of 100 seconds ahead of Medi Harris (+0,06 seconds) from Great Britain and Kira Toussaint (+0,13 seconds) from the Netherlands. There was also gold for Benedetta Pilato (29.85 seconds) in the 50-meter breaststroke. And Gregorio Paltrinieri (14.39,79:1500 mins) was able to pick up a silver medal for his performance in the 14.36,10 meter freestyle. He only had to admit defeat to Mykhaylo Romanchuk (XNUMX mins).

Sara Franceschi also won bronze in the 2.11,38-meter individual medley (200:21.72 minutes). Shortly afterwards, Lorenzo Zazzeri (50 seconds), an Azzurro, won another silver medal in the 4-meter freestyle. Bronze also went to Stefano di Cola, Matteo Campi, Alice Mizzau and Antonietta Cesarano in the 200xXNUMX meter mixed relay.
