The game started with a lot of intensity and pace, but with inaccuracies on the part of both teams. A three-pointer by Ryan Logan, thanks to a great defense by Albert S\u00e0bat, made it 9-5 on the scoreboard. B\u00e0squet Girona managed to close the defensive rebound and put pressure, which allowed the Girona team to continue with the advantage on the scoreboard. Ryan Logan with his second three-pointer in the first quarter has left the home advantage at four points (14-10). <\/p>\n
The second period began with a three-pointer by Robert Cosialls and great defense by B\u00e0squet Girona. Both teams continued to press, but the home team went up another gear and went ten points up in the electronic thanks to the second triple of winger-pivot Robert Cosialls. Pepo Barral’s game direction was key to maintaining the distance with the rival team in the second quarter. In the last part of the period, the game was very even between the two teams, exchanging baskets and defenses as the quarter ended (35-27). <\/p>\n
The second half of the match saw the same tone as the first: intensity and defense were two determining factors. Olaf Schaftenaar brought good feelings thanks to a triple when little possession was needed, although Melilla made some good defenses in the following attacks. Five minutes into the quarter, B\u00e0squet Girona had a seven-point lead. The visiting team, with a score of 2-10, managed to take the lead for the first time with two minutes to go. The pace of the game continued at its best, leaving the team from Girona three points behind in the quarter (53-56). <\/p>\n
The final quarter began with an unsportsmanlike foul in favor of B\u00e0squet Girona, which K\u00e1ri J\u00f3nsson converted to give the team strength. A three-pointer from the rival team has left the team from Girona with a point advantage after four minutes of the quarter. Robert Cosialls converted a triple as soon as he entered the court, which was followed by a great defense of the team. In the following attacks, taking advantage of his state of grace, Robert converted a counterattack that put the team eight points ahead. Girona Basketball has made a 9-0 run taking advantage of two good defenses by Pep Busquets. In the last moment of the game, the team from Girona hit the table and ended up winning by fourteen points (77-63). <\/p>\n
Statements by Carlos Marco: <\/p>\n
“We’ve been very good in the defensive plan we had, like stopping Wintering, the pivots in the two-on-one, the guards, the wings, we’ve been very good because we’ve made them miss a lot even though we haven’t been good in rebounding .”<\/span><\/p>\n “In the third quarter we came out well again, despite some doubts, bad defenses and two three-pointers from Dedovic. Their secondary players played very well and got ahead. We had some doubts, but I’m happy of how we got back into the game.”<\/span><\/p>\n “The last timeout they were 70-62 and they finished with 63. I think it was great. Happy for the people and for us because we work so hard to win and have these satisfactions and it’s another step to keep – us next season in the league.”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Girona Basketball puts salvation on track virtually<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6763,"menu_order":0,"template":"","categoria_noticia":[],"class_list":["post-23936","noticia","type-noticia","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
