Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto make a strong start

Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto’s Infantil team won 38–26 this afternoon against Villa de Aranda in a match settled by Fertiberia in the first 25 minutes, securing their first victory.

Fertiberia took to the court showing a high level of play, and the red-and-white side soon moved ahead at 5–2 thanks to good defending and excellent attacking accuracy. Villa de Aranda’s timeout was not long in coming, as they were unable to stop the red-and-white attacks. After the first ten minutes, Villa de Aranda suffered the first suspension of the match, an opportunity the red-and-whites did not let slip, extending their lead to 14–7. At the 20-minute mark, Fertiberia continued to dominate the contest with a compact defence, capitalising on the Aranda side’s turnovers to maintain their advantage and go into the changing rooms leading 20–14.

The second half began with Fertiberia highly focused, giving their opponents no opportunities as they became bogged down in attack against the red-and-white defence. Jandro Pérez’s players showed no sign of weakness or nervousness, extending their lead further on the scoreboard to 30–20. In the closing minutes, the Valencians merely had to manage the advantage gained in the first half to collect their first two points, beating the Aranda side 38–26.

Fertiberia’s next fixture will be tomorrow, when they play their second group match at 17:00 against Colegio PuertoSol.
