Hotel Lancelot suffered another defeat in their visit to Grupo Pinta in a match dominated by the Santander team from start to finish, although with minimal differences on the scoreboard.
The first 10 minutes were tentative. From that moment on, and with a tie on the scoreboard, two good defensive actions by the Torrelavega team culminated in counterattacks, which allowed Grupo Pinta to gain a two-goal advantage that would last until halftime.
Second period
The beginning of the second half offered greater defensive intensity from the locals, who were willing to finish the match, especially in defensive tasks, which allowed them easy counterattacks against which Hotel Lancelot could do nothing, as they went to Torrelavega with depleted troops. In the middle of the second period, Grupo Pinta achieved its biggest lead on the scoreboard (23 to 17), a lead that was maintained until the last 5 minutes, in which the islanders, thanks to a more open defense, managed to tighten the score to that final 27-25, with which the match concluded.
This Saturday from 7:30 p.m. in the Titerroy Pavilion, San José Obrero receives Beti Onak, a team that is on the island preparing for the very important match. According to Casanova, "it is a team very similar to us, they use fast play although they are players with greater stature. I hope that once again the fans respond and come to the match because it is a direct rival for permanence."
