What kind of sacrifices have you made in order to arrive where you are right now?
It is not easy to combine sports with study. Therefore, we need a great deal of determination and perseverance. Our love for this discipline helps us in every moment: since we come from different cities, we do not have many chances to train together. So, this feels like a gold medal.
How do you manage to properly concentrate before every dive?
Well, we do so many dives our body already knows what to do, so the important thing is to always keep calm and to stay focused on the objective. Calm is essential, since in this sport you find yourself alone on the springboard.
Is this your first time in Naples? What do you think about this city?
-Porco Francesco: Yes, it is. Everything here is amazing and well organised. Universiade is a great event and everything works fine.
-Cosoli Andrea: Not for me, I come to Naples often, since I have relatives living here. But every time I enjoy coming back here, because Naples is a fantastic city.
