Fertiberia defend, convince and win

Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto secured a convincing 35–21 home victory over Acanor Novas in a match that began evenly, but in which the red-and-whites took control in the second half and left their opponents with no options. The match began very evenly, with Ovni’s blue court witnessing an exchange of goals. Both teams were serious in defence and made things very difficult for each other. Once again, David Bruixola demonstrated why he is expected to be the best goalkeeper in the division, while Querín and Pocholo delivered in attack. At the end of the first half, the home side moved ahead on the scoreboard and both teams went into the break with the score at 15–12. After the break, the red-and-whites took control of the match. Nogués’s side brought out their full arsenal, and Montoya, Dorado and Folques proved impossible to stop in attack. Bruixola also continued to keep the goal firmly shut, and the Galicians were unable to close the gap. A great second half gave the Valencians the victory they needed to begin moving towards the top places in the table.
