Fortress Pro Recco, the team of invincibles, national champion since 2006, collapsed at the end of four last-gasp challenges.

"Even before the great athletes, this Scudetto was won by real men", the Patron of AN Brescia Marco Bonometti does not hide the emotion. "Brescia needed to get up after such a negative period due to the pandemic, this is a sign of rebirth also for all other sports and for our city. An excellent result obtained with the work of many years, with the team that has been a driving force to promote sport among young people. Because this is a healthy, clean and extremely formative discipline: my invitation to the boys is to get closer to water polo ".

President Andrea Malchiodi: "Today we are enjoying a victory that we have been chasing for ten years, always undoing and rebuilding new teams. Thanks to the support of the brothers Marco and Franco Bonometti, we have always managed to set up competitive and big-hearted teams. This is a championship title. which is worth ten of those who are used to winning ".

Coach Sandro Bovo dedicates the victory to Piero Borelli: "We want to dedicate this victory to him, with our Piero watching our backs we have crowned our dream. Today I saw a photo of him and I thought of a great gift for him".

Brescia was the strongest, Brescia won!
