Fair defeat of Magec Tías "Against Gender Violence" against the bottom team of the Women's League 2, the CB Aridane, in the Canary Islands derby of the category. The team trained by Jesús García was surpassed by its rival in many facets of the game, which resulted in a victory for the palmeras and a defeat, the third, for the Lanzarote team, which is still having an excellent season.
The local team tried to surprise with the debut of the French Morane Soppi and the Cadiz native Marta Pérez, and although the visitors knew about their signing, they had problems avoiding the group play of CB Aridane.
Despite how close the score was in the first half, concluding with the local victory by 30 to 27, it seemed that the match could change hands at any moment, which did not happen, since the Magec Tías "Against Gender Violence" could not get ahead on the scoreboard at any time in the second half where the impetus shown by the players of Jorge Carreira surpassed that of the red and black team.
"There is no other option than to continue working and raise our heads", explained Jesús García at the end of the match, emphasizing that "we are clear about what the objective is and it is for what we have to fight, turning this defeat around and being positive for the future". The Lanzarote team returned to the island crestfallen after having lost a great opportunity to win, finally falling defeated by 65 to 57.
The Magec Tías "Against Gender Violence" will begin this Monday to prepare for the clash this coming Saturday against Hierros Díaz Miralvalle de Cáceres, a match that will be played at 8:00 p.m. at the Lanzarote Sports City.
