Even on the last day of competitions in the pool of the European swimming championships, Italy is stocking up on medals.
The Azzurri, rulers of the medal table of the competition underway in Rome, take home another six: two golds, four silvers and a bronze .
The most precious metal goes to the 4x100 mistra relay and to Thomas Ceccon , who wins the 100 backstroke race in 52 '' 21, three hundredths ahead of the Greek Christou, more detached instead the French Boyard.
The afternoon of the finals began with Leonardo Deplano's splendid silver in the 50 freestyle, the blue in 21.60 surrendered only to the English Proud, bronze for the Greek Gkolomeev.
Immediately after another silver for Benedetta Pilato in the 50 breaststroke, behind the Lithuanian Meilutyte and ahead of the English Clark.
Then, after Ceccon's gold came Ilaria Cusinato's bronze in the 200 butterfly. The blue finished behind the Bosnian Puldar and the Danish Bach.
Splendid silver also for Alberto Razzetti in the mixed 200 (behind the Hungarian Kos and the Portuguese Lopes) and for Simona Quadarella in the 400 freestyle . The Roman - already gold in the 1800s and 1500s - surrendered to the German Gose, bronze for the Hungarian Keseli.
Finally, the apotheosis with the mixed 4x100 men, the last race of the program, dominated by the Italians. Ceccon, Martinenghi, Rivolta and Miressi made a void behind them, giving more than 4 seconds of gap to France who finished second, bronze for Austria.
