The first match at Europe Championship Rink Hockey in Paredes

Yesterday Spain, Portugal and France won the first match at Europe Championship Rink Hockey in Paredes. On the first day of the European Championship in Paredes, France, Portugal and Spain signed their first victory: two excellent performances for Portugal and Spain, queens of European hockey, great job for France.

The most exciting match was the first of the tournament, between Italy and France, where the fight to the sound of goals was won by France 8-5. A victory signed by the Di Benedetto brothers, “poker” goals for Carlo and “hat-trick” for Roberto, to which the Italian doubles of Gavioli and Ambrosio responded.

Spain, in the afternoon, won 11-0 against Andorra, thanks to the doubles of Alabart, Aragones, Font and Bargallò, while Portugal, in the evening, won 10-0 against Germany, thanks to the doubles in this case of Telmo Pinto, Jorge Silva and Gonçalo Alves.

A big step for France that tomorrow night at 21:45 (local time) will face the hosts, in which you will see the real strength, both of the hosts and the “Blues”. It is a decisive day to decide who will not go to the Final, because Spain and Italy clash at 15:30 and at 18:30 the challenge between Andorra and Germany.
Among the scorers in the lead Carlo di Benedetto with four goals scored today.
