The first half began with Burgos dominating the pace and generating the first gaps in the scoreboard. However, a 2-8 run put the Girona team back in the game, which saw some good inside plays (22-16). The intense defensive approach meant that both teams went to the free throw line frequently, allowing B\u00e0squet Girona to score 17 of the 41 points they scored in the first half from the 4.60-meter line. Pep Busquets’ scoring lead (13 points in the first half) allowed them to maintain the margin with the home team, who proved to be successful in attack (49-41). <\/p>\n\n
An 18-0 run in the second half has catapulted the home team’s aspirations of victory, adding a twenty-point advantage that they would lose in the last play (97-79).<\/p>\n\n
