Le perle di Mezzarobba, stella esplosa all’HaBaWaBa

I talenti sbocciati negli scorsi anni all’HaBaWaBa International Festival stanno crescendo, trasformandosi in giocatori veri e con prospettive a cinque cerchi. In questa stagione abbiamo già visto Thomas Vernoux brillare in Champions League, mentre sabato scorso, in A1, Michele Mezzarobba (foto in homepage mc59.com) è stato uno dei grandi protagonisti del successo di Trieste sull’Ortigia. Il 19enne ha segnato 2 magnifici gol a una leggenda della pallanuoto come Stefano Tempesti, dimostrando ancora una volta forza, tecnica e personalità, doti che erano già emerse nelle tre edizioni dell’HaBaWaBa International Festival (2009, 2010 e 2011) a cui aveva partecipato da bambino. Il percorso per diventare un grande giocatore, per arrivare all’azzurro - per ora solo sfiorato in qualche collegiale - è ancora lungo. Ma con passione e sacrificio, Mezzarobba può completare quel cammino: dall’HaBaWaBa al Settebello. Clicca qui per altri video
