In front of 3,472 spectators who were 10 and created a very high-level atmosphere, Roberto \u00cd\u00f1iguez&#8217;s team have competed with admirable identity and ambition, dominating the game for many minutes and having the classification in their hands in a last play that did not want to enter.   <\/p>\n\n<p>With Fontajau more alive than ever, after a start with exchanges (6-7), Spar Girona managed to impose its offensive rhythm with a 13-0 run to differentiate itself, highlighting the 9 points from Mariam (19-7). Little by little, Valencia woke up thanks to Fiebich and Hillman, but Girona&#8217;s dynamic was sustained with Lola&#8217;s points to close the quarter with an 8-point advantage (28-20). <\/p>\n\n<p>With the change of quarters, the orange team has approached only 3 points (30-27), but an action by Jocyte for Mariam has stopped the half (32-27). That said, the success of the visitors, with Fiebich and Fam as protagonists, has reversed the situation to place a -4 on the scoreboard (39-43). The difference has not intimidated our team, who through Klara and Mariam have tied the result at 43, which has forced Burgos to stop the clash 2 minutes before the half. Fiebich has converted a triple to close the Valencian attack, while Klara has not missed the free throws to place 45 to 46 at halftime.   <\/p>\n\n<p>The change of pace in the locker room has awakened the Girona ambition and, with an action by Mariam, a triple by Quevedo and a transition by Klara, Burgos had to call a timeout (52-47). The orange reaction was not long in coming and Fam and Buenavida tied the game at 54. Shortly before the end and with Fontajau pressing, the crowd was ignited by a basket by Ainhoa, and despite Carrera&#8217;s equalizer from the personal, Klara&#8217;s final passes gave us a small advantage to close the third period (60-56).  <\/p>\n\n<p>With a lot of nerves, Queralt did not forgive the first Valencian attack (60-59). That said, Girona&#8217;s reaction was not long in coming and a tackle by Ainhoa \u200b\u200band the magical actions of Klara drove Fontajau crazy (66-59), forcing Burgos to stop the game with 7:08 to go. Then, Mariam&#8217;s points put our team ahead (70-61), but the success of Fam, Carrera and Anderson brought the orange team closer again (70-67), which led Roberto to call a timeout with 3:18 to go. A three-pointer by Anderson tied the game at 70 and, immediately, Carrera put the visitors ahead +2. From the free throw line, Klara added a point and, shortly after, Mariam scored two to tie the tie (73-72). Shortly before the end, Anderson had the opportunity to score for Valencia, but the pressure from the crowd influenced her and she only scored a free throw (73-73). With 5 seconds left, Roberto designed a play that ended with Mariam under the basket, but the ball did not want to go in and Valencia secured access to the league final.      <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spar Girona has been left just a breath away from the grand final of the LF Endesa after tying Fontajau (73-73) and taking Valencia Basket to the absolute limit.
