The adventures of the girls of the Italian national team officially begin, after more than 24 hours of travel, the players have landed in Auckland, the city that will host the blue delegation in the first phase of the tournament. A festive atmosphere accompanied the players, who were very well received both at the airport and at the hotel. After lunch, to adjust to the time difference and immediately familiarize themselves with training camp, the Azzurre went to Shepherds Park for a short muscle building session.
A not-too-inviting climate of pouring rain and cold weather accompanied the Italian girls, who kept their euphoric mood and focus high. The head is on the next games, on July 24 (8am Italian) at Eden Park in Auckland, the debut with Argentina, on July 29 (9.30am Italian) and on August 2 (9am Italian) at the Regional Stadium in Wellington capital of New Zealand, the games against Sweden and South Africa. Italy has set the minimum goal of getting into the group. The ambition is of course to improve, even if it won’t be easy. At the last edition in 2019, the “Ragazze Mondiali” reached the quarterfinals and made millions of Italians fall in love with them.
