Major party in Fontajau

The team achieves its first victory at home in a choral performance against UCAM Murcia (100-89)

| Sunday, 30 October 2022

Básquet Girona dominated the match from start to finish, reaching a +28 advantage and a half-time score of 52 points. The desire for the first victory at home has been felt with the communion between the team and the fans.

The match was intense from the start, with a very active Fontajau, who helped the team in the start: good circulation, shot selection and defense were the keys to achieving a +14 in score (24-10) in the first 10 minutes.

The team from Murcia found, through the triple, a way to shorten distances in the second period and the Girona team lowered the scoring rate. However, Miletić gave the Girona players a breather again, with 3 triples in a row, to stay in the lead. The team reacted in the best way, gaining the maximum advantage and reaching the half with a 52-33. 

The break did not interrupt the good scoring rhythm, and the second half continued to belong to Básquet Girona. With 50% in field goals and rebound dominance (31-16 for the locals), Aíto’s men continued to set the tempo of the game.

A partial 0-8 from UCAM Murcia and a greater effectiveness of Sito Alonso’s men in the last quarter were not enough to overturn the scoreboard. With this victory,

The next match for the Girona side will be next Sunday, at 5 p.m., against FC Barcelona at the Palau Blaugrana.
