The activity in Santiago de Chile does not stop. On the ninth day of the Pan American Games, Las Panteras will seek to remove the thorn that caused the defeat in the semifinals against the Dominican Republic with the aim of obtaining the bronze medal.

Furthermore, in field hockey Las Leonas have the objective of starting the same as the men’s team (yesterday they won 10 to 1 over Mexico) in their debut in Group A against Uruguay. The Argentine team, world champion in Perth 2002 and Rosario 2010, also won three silver medals in the ecumenical tournament: France, 1974; Berlin 1976 and Dublin 1994, and three bronze medals: Madrid 1978 and 2006 and The Hague 2014.

Argentina also won the silver medal in the Sydney 2000, London 2012 and Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and the bronze medal in Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008. The players who will compete in Chile are Clara Barberi, Agustina Gorzelany, Cristina Cosentino, Juana Castellaro, Valentina Costa Biondi, Valentina Raposo, Victoria Sauze, Agostina Alonso, Sofía Toccalino, Sofía Cairo, Rocío Sánchez Moccia, María José Granatto, Julieta Jankunas, Eugenia Trinchinetti, Pilar Campoy, Agustina Albertario, Valentina Marcucci and Delfina Thome are those called up to the Argentine team . Marcucci and Thome traveled as reserves. The Lionesses, who in the tournament will seek qualification for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, share group A with the United States, Uruguay and Trinidad and Tobago.

Women’s basketball is obliged to beat Chile to maintain its chances of qualifying, after what meant the painful fall with Cuba by 86 to 74.

Without a doubt, attention will focus on a new presentation of racquetball when the duo composed of María José Vargas and María Méndez face the Mexican team with the dream of reaching the top of the podium.
