Easy victory for the Apennines

The match between Italy and Estonia took place in parallel with the match of the host team and it can be said that this match was much less intriguing than the match in the main hall.

The Italian team managed to gain an advantage at the start of the game, which was increased throughout the first half, and finally ended the half with a big difference of 20:5.

Although the Italian team played with less concentration in the second half and allowed the opponent to score twice as many goals as in the first half, the difference on the scoreboard at the end of the match was still solid – 34-15.
