Spain is disappointed to be penultimate in the artistic swimming free duet

The harvest of medals in Spanish artistic swimming at the Fukuoka World Cup has slowed down. It's probably not over though. The possibility of a metal in the final of the free duet, with the Andalusian Alisa Ozoghina and the Catalan Iris Tió, vanished with an unexpected note: 175.7437 points were awarded by the judges to their exercise in the final, which sent them to the penultimate place (11th), far from the podium taken by Austria (255), China (255) and Japan (249).

In the final, Tió and Ozoghina, directed by Mayu Fujiki, the team and duet selector, performed a choreography to the theme Can't hold us by Macklemore

The option of the seventh medal for Spain in the World Cup, which could come this Friday (12:30 pm, Spanish time) in the final of the free team exercise, which was second in the preliminary, vanished. The technical team already took the gold on Tuesday.

So far, in seven days of competition, Spain has accumulated six medals, three of them gold, in the technical team, and in the two men's solos, technical and free, with Fernando Díaz del Río and Dennis González, respectively.

Iris Tió has two bronzes, in the technical solo and the technical duet with Alisa Ozoghina, in addition to the gold of the technical team.
