The Malta Football Association (MFA) has appointed Davide Mazzotta as interim head coach of the national football team following the departure of Michele Marcolini.

Mazzotta, who served as the team’s assistant coach between 2020 and 2023, will take charge for Malta’s remaining four matches this year, including a friendly against Turkmenistan and crucial UEFA Nations League games against Moldova and Andorra.

Mazzotta, a 54-year-old Italian coach, previously worked under Devis Mangia and briefly led the team to a 2-1 victory over Israel in 2022 before Gilbert Agius was named interim coach. His career includes time with Premier League club Chelsea, where he was part of Antonio Conte’s coaching staff, and more recently with Serie B side Salernitana.

MFA president Bjorn Vassallo expressed confidence in Mazzotta, praising his familiarity with the players and his tactical knowledge. Mazzotta himself said he was honored to return and is motivated to help the squad perform at its best.

Joining Mazzotta as assistant coach is former Uruguay international Ernesto Javier Chevanton, who has notable experience coaching Lecce’s Under-19 team to an Italian championship in 2022.

Neil Agius Explains the “Why” Behind His 60 Hour Swim

Sep 24 2024 Share

Whilst Neil swam for over 60 hours, @zibelofficial and @waveofchangemalta hosted clean-ups to promote cleaner seas around Malta and Gozo. This remarkable effort was part of a broader mission to raise awareness about protecting marine life and the urgent need to preserve our waters. Neil’s swim is complete, but our collective commitment to safeguarding the seas has only just begun.

The joint initiative highlights the importance of community action in addressing environmental challenges. Protecting our seas isn’t just about one person’s effort, but a united front to protect our planet for future generations.

Neil’s marathon swim symbolizes resilience and determination. “This swim is a testament to human resilience, and it’s a message to the world,” Agius declared. “If we can face the toughest of seas and prevail, we can take on the toughest challenges our planet faces, too. Together, there’s nothing we can’t achieve.”

This incredible feat, paired with the coastal clean-ups, sends a powerful reminder that through unity and perseverance, no challenge is too great—whether it’s swimming for over 60 hours or working tirelessly to protect our seas. The mission to defend marine life and promote cleaner oceans will continue, and together, we can make lasting change.
