Alpine Skiing champion Sofia Goggia escapes terrifying accident

A post on X by a handle called Eurosport France read, “Avec Sofia Goggia, on peut s’attendre à tout”… sauf peut-être à la voir s’arrêter au bout 10 secondes à cause d’un technicien resté sur la piste. Plus de peur que de mal, et l’Italienne a finalement réussi à se qualifier. RDV à 13h sur Eurosport #ChaletClub

The translation stated, “With Sofia Goggia, we can expect anything”… except perhaps seeing her stop after 10 seconds because of a technician remaining on the track. More fear than harm, and the Italian finally managed to qualify. Meet at 1 p.m. on Eurosport #ChaletClub. In the video, Goggia was seen swooshing down the giant at high speeds, and she suddenly spotted a man shoveling ice by the flag. Thankfully, she swerved to the side with the utmost precision right on time, or it would have led to serious consequences for both people. Further tweets also highlighted the details of the almost freak accident that derailed her.

A post on X by a  handle called Łukasz Jachimiak read, “Niewiele brakowało, a Sofia Goggia staranowałaby tego pana z łopatą. Maryna Gąsienica-Daniel po pierwszym przejeździe giganta w #Soelden pewnie zostanie na 17. miejscu. Drugi przejazd od godziny 13.00.” 

Which translates to, “Sofia Goggia almost rammed this man with a shovel. Maryna Gąsienica-Daniel will probably stay in 17th place after the giant’s first run in #Soelden . Second ride from 1:00 p.m. #alpejski”. Further details emerged of the almost freak accident as fans watched in horror.
