According to LEN water polo manager Marco Birri, more than 25,000 people have watched online broadcasting from the opening ceremony of the European championships in Chelyabinsk.
“This event exceeds all my expectations. I would like to thank the president of the Russian water polo federation Vadim Somov and local authorities for perfect organization. The competitions will last for 7 days, but the opening ceremony is the best that I have ever seen,” Marco Birri says.
