The Spanish water polo teams they already have team for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. This Monday the lists of thirteen chosen by David Martín and Miki Oca were announced, both without surprises and with expected names. In water polo, quotas are thirteen total players per team, with no additional substitutions.
The current Olympic runners-up will travel to Paris with their gala team. It is composed of Laura Ester, Judith Forca, Bea Ortiz, Maica García and Paula Leitón (Astralpool Sabadell); Martina Terré, Paula Crespí, Nona Pérez and Elena Ruiz (Saint Andrew); Isabel Piralkova, Pili Peña and Paula Camus (Terrassa), and Annie Espar (Assolim Mataró).
This way, Miki will have his usual girls for the Olympic tournament. Elia Jiménez, Daniela Moreno, Alba Muñoz and Paula Prats fell compared to the last call at altitude in the Sierra Nevada.
In this case, Miki Oca seems to have removed the possible doubts about the formation of the team for that concentration in the Sierra Nevada. Neither Mariona Terré nor Ariadna Ruiz approached him., perhaps the two biggest candidates for the Olympic team not in Paris. Thus, Spain trusts in its common bloc, which will need to fully manage the forces behind a time that was very physically demanding where the main players like Judith Forca or Maica García did not have an easy path and others like Anni Espar, Elena Ruiz or Bea Ortiz had many minutes. United States, Italy, Greece and France They will be the opponent of the Spaniards in the first stage.
There are no surprises on the men’s list either. David Martin, where doubts arose after Álex Bustos did not travel to the last preparatory tournament in Italy. The thirteen summoned were Unai Aguirre, Felipe Perrone, Alberto Munarriz, Bustos, Marc Larumbe, Bernat Sanahuja, Miguel de Toro, Martin Famera, Unai Biel and Roger Tahull (Zodiac Barceloneta); Edu Lorrio (Astralpool Sabadell); Sergi Cabanas (Jug Dubrovnik), and Alvaro Granados (Novi Beograd).
Therefore, Martín also keeps the players he counts during the cycle. Sabadell players were removed from the call with respect to the last Sardinia Cup event Blai Mallarach and Fran Valera, as well as the Marc Valls of CNB. Spain will take part in a group at the Games with Hungary, Serbia, France, Australia and Japan.
