Ca´Mario Lanzarote San José Obrero suffered its third consecutive defeat on Saturday afternoon, a setback that does not allow it to reach the second position and take advantage of the stumbles of the rest of the direct rivals. The Lanzarote team is going through a game crisis both in attack and defense, which was evident in the match against Melilla Virgen de la Victoria. Against one of the last classified in the category, San José Obrero was thick in attack and despite this was about to score.

The beginning of the match did not foreshadow the outcome of it, seeing a Ca´Mario Lanzarote San José Obrero eager to turn the situation around and offer a new victory to its loyal fans.

At halftime, the score was 11 to 13.



Far from improving the game of Ca´Mario Lanzarote San José Obrero in the second half, it worsened as the minutes passed. The players of the local team were apathetic on the court. In attack, they rushed when choosing the best action, making goalkeeper David Salvador Enrique the hero of his team. And the defense was soft, only goalkeeper Pablo Chantada was successful in keeping his team alive.

With five minutes left in the match, the score reflected a clear 18 to 22 in favor of Melilla Virgen de la Victoria, at which point the reaction of Ca´Mario Lanzarote San José Obrero arrived. Vicente Poveda transformed a seven-meter shot and Nico Nuñez made it 20-22. Alexis Rodríguez with a powerful shot and Veljko Davidovic, culminated the partial score of 4-0 to put the score at 22 to 22 in the 28th minute.

Two final minutes of the match that were heart-stopping and in which the fans dreamed of their team's victory. Francisco Campoy put Melilla ahead again on the scoreboard and Veljko Davidovic tied with one minute left. Melilla Virgen de la Victoria would score again in its last attacking play, through an immeasurable David Álvarez who rose from the center and surpassed Chantada. Ca´Mario Lanzarote San José Obrero showed its terrible attack in the last play and failed to tie.

Third consecutive defeat for Ca´Mario Lanzarote San José Obrero, which has not yet found its best version on the court.
