Fertiberia give Asobal’s Huesca a real challenge

Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto once again produced a good performance away against Bada Huesca. The red-and-whites were not afraid to face an Asobal team and led on the scoreboard throughout the first half. In the second half, as happened in Elche against Benidorm, they ran out of steam and could not complete their excellent first-half performance, eventually losing 29-26. Dija Cruz’s 10 goals deserve a special mention; he played only in the first half. Cruz was not the only player who did not play after the interval: David Bruixola also did not feature, being replaced by Chueca in goal, while Marcos Dorado was shown a straight red card. After the match, the red-and-white coach, Vicent Nogués, stated that “Today we leave Huesca with positive feelings. For the second week running, the team competed for all 60 minutes against an Asobal side. I think we played a very good first half, 13-16, and in the second half the young players made a very good contribution. Tomorrow, more and better.”   Bada Huesca: Alberto (3), Gerard (3), Delgado (1), Adriá (4), Ostojic (1), Jorge Gómez Lite, Filipe, Jorge Broto, Gonzalo (6), Eloy (2), Mendoza (1), Nicolas, Marco, Alejandro (5), Miguel, Juan.
