MADRID, 18 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Japanese Mayu Fujiki, coach of the Spanish artistic swimming team, acknowledged that the conquest of gold this Tuesday in the technical routine of the World Cups in Fukuoka (Japan) was a “very good moment”, but that it was preferable to postpone the celebration for ” continue with this concentration until the end”.
“I think we will celebrate everything together when we finish everything on the last day. We have to continue because if you lose concentration a bit, other countries can ‘steal’ it from you. It’s a very good moment, but we have to continue with this concentration until the last day,” Fujiki said in statements provided by the RFEN.
The coach was calm after seeing the exercise in the final, despite the fact that the Italians and the Americans still had to swim. “We have seen energy in the girls in the warm-up before competing. They were focused and came out excited. I felt that they were very prepared and we left the warm-up pool with a good feeling. Also, when we have swum as well as possible on our part, the The only thing you can have is peace of mind because everything we could do has been done,” he admitted.
The Japanese stressed that they have worked “a lot on technique and timing” with the technical team. “While other countries were focusing a lot on difficulty, we wanted to go as high as possible in difficulty, but we also wanted to show item quality and timing as well,” she stated.
Regarding the role of Iris Tió, who is the soloist and who also makes a duet with Alisa Ozoghina, he recalled that “it is very difficult to manage with a team at the same time”. “I think it’s very difficult for Iris to organize her head for six different things, but she’s organizing her head very well and she’s very focused,” Fujiki said.
