Beach volley, Perusic/Schweiner si fermano agli ottavi. Ahman/Hellvig vincono la battaglia con i cubani

Non sono mancati spettacolo ed emozioni nella prima giornata dedicata agli ottavi di finale ai Giochi olimpici di Parigi nel beach volley. L’Italia ha perso la sua coppia nel torneo femminile con Gottardi/Menegatti sconfitte al tie break dalla coppia campione del mondo Hughes/Cheng, mentre gli altri campioni del mondo, Perusic/Schweiner sono usciti di scena perdendo con un secco 2-0 (21-18, 21-16) contro gli olandesi Boermans/De Groot.

I numeri uno al mondo hanno sudato le proverbiali sette camicie per avere ragione degli outsider cubani Diaz/Alayo che, dopo aver perso nettamente il primo set, hanno cambiato marcia ed hanno sconfitto nel secondo parziale 28-26 gli svedesi Ahman/Hellvig, poi sono stati battuti 15-11 nel tie break. Netta la vittoria dei tedeschi Ehlers/Wickler 2-0 contro i brasiliani George/Andre, mentre a rappresentare il Brasile restano Evandro/Arthur che hanno sconfitto in due set gli olandesi Immers/Van de Velde.

In campo femminile le svizzere Huberli/Brunner hanno superato 2-0 le spagnole Liliana/Paula, mentre l’impresa del giorno porta la firma dell’altra coppia elvetica, Esmèe/Zoè che ha superato 2-0 (29-27, 21-17) le cinesi Xue/Xia. Si fanno sempre trovare pronte al momento giusto le australiane Mariafè/Clancy che hanno sconfitto nettamente 2-0 le più quotate brasiliane Carol/Barbara.
