The lack of continuity in attack Senior Male 1st National DBC-SUMA It complicated the match a lot and ended up preventing them from adding a new victory in the trip made this week to the Onil field (71-64).
From the outset we controlled the match through our defense and mastery of the rebound. Although our difficulties in scoring against their tight defense soon began to show, we were able through our efforts to escape with an eight-point lead in the course of the second quarter.
Onil, however, came back taking advantage of our growing doubts and in his best minutes he distanced himself by more than ten points.
Bernardo Sanz managed to put the team in order and the offensive production rose again, leveling the score with only two minutes remaining.
The greatest success in individual actions of the locals in the outcome of the match ended up giving them victory.
Next week the team will have to play a double day again, facing Elche on Friday at Joan Fuster, and visiting the leader of the classification at the Novelda pavilion on Sunday.
Senior Female Preferred
The Preferred Senior Women's team played a new league day in Pego, beating their rivals in a cold and somewhat soulless environment (25-50).
The game did not last one hour of real time, against some locals who only had six players to play and who took refuge in a closed area for forty minutes.
With little rhythm and without the possibility of getting into dynamics, those of Juan Luis Pérez they had to adapt to the circumstances and pulling their own hands they were sealing a new victory, which was perhaps in the end the only highlight of what was experienced in this match.
The team must recover the level it had before the interruptions due to the pandemic if it wants to arrive in the best conditions at the end of this second phase of the competition.
Next week they will have to play two games against Teulada, on Saturday as visitors and on Sunday morning as hosts, thus recovering one of the days postponed due to the pandemic.
Senior Male Preferred
The Preferential Senior Men extended their losing streak for another week and could not beat El Pilar de Valencia (45-73) in a match played at Joan Fuster's pavilion.
Carlos Vila's men jumped onto the field convinced of being able to compete, and had a good first quarter that ended in a balanced manner.
A hard partial against conceded in the second quarter thanks to the great success of the Valencians in our basket, however, made the match very difficult for our team.
Despite this, we were able to recover based on pride and intensity in defense without giving the game up for lost at any time. But we didn't have all the luck we needed when it came to the basket and our rivals on the other hand had the patience to accept our reaction without worrying, and then find the moment to sentence their victory.
Next week we will visit Algemesí, another court complicated by the strength of the rival, against whom, however, we will have to try to give our best to start adding points again in the standings.
Junior Female Preferred
The leader Godella was far superior to the Preferred Junior Women's team in a match played on Saturday at Joan Fuster's pavilion in which we could hardly put up a fight (45-87).
The lack of conviction on the part of Juan Luis Pérez, the casualties with which we faced the match and, above all, the strength of the Valencian women took away the ideas worked out to try to surprise them.
Godella completely dominated the boards and always imposed the pace of the match, leading the score from start to finish, taking a victory that forces us to concentrate and unite even more, if possible, to play a good role in the remainder of this Preferred Championship.
Regret the injury of Laia Molina that adds to the team's list of casualties. We hope that everyone recovers in the shortest possible time and can return to the group's work dynamics.
Junior Male Preferred
The Preferred Junior Male could not take the victory of the Miguel Buigues pavilion of Xàbia (66-41). We played a very good first half, correctly reading the game that Xàbia proposed, managing to break his defense with order and being able to have balance in attack, occupying the spaces very well and with good performance on the rebound.
The only but was our percentages at the time of completing the good work done, a situation that was constant throughout the match and that made us go into the break with a disadvantage of fifteen points, nothing in line with what was seen on the pitch.
Although we kept trying, our spirits were declining because the sensations were of playing a good game without achieving the result we expected. Joventut ended up sentencing the result in the last quarter as our desired change in offensive trend did not end up coming.
Next week the team will face a very important match in Joan Fuster in the fight for permanence against Don Bosco from Valencia, a direct rival who easily beat us in the first round and against whom we will have to show our best face to try to add victory .
