Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto make their debut in front of their fans on Saturday

       

Toni Malla’s side will play their first División de Honor Plata match at the Port de Sagunt Municipal Pavilion

 

Fertiberia Balonmano Puerto Sagunto will play their first home match of the season against Balonmano Caserío de Ciudad Real. The match corresponding to Matchday 2 of the División Honor Plata will take place at the Port de Sagunt Municipal Pavilion next Saturday, 21 September, from 18:30. The match can be followed via streaming on the club’s YouTube channel.

The red-and-white side come into the match after securing an important away victory at the start of the league campaign against Vilanox Novás (24–31). ‘We are making our home debut very excited by the work we have been doing in recent weeks, which was confirmed in last weekend’s match against Novás’, explains Toni Malla, coach of the side from Puerto de Sagunto.

Regarding the opponents they will face, Malla says ‘things are different now, because this Saturday we welcome a firm promotion candidate in Caserío. They are not the team that came here two seasons ago, in the year of promotion. They have kept part of the squad but have strengthened very well and are very dangerous’.

‘They are currently the favourites for promotion because they are an established, well-built team that have just played in the promotion phase. We, meanwhile, are in the midst of building our team, even though we won against Novás on Saturday’, Malla adds about Caserío.

The red-and-white side face their first home league match, according to Malla: ‘with complete responsibility and maturity, and it is very important that, whatever happens, we continue to grow and develop. This is a long season and there is a lot still to come. If we win, there will still be a lot to come, and if we lose, likewise. We are going to give everything because our people deserve it’.

‘We hope the pavilion will be full and that people will come to enjoy these lads, because regardless of the results, I am convinced that we will enjoy the team’s commitment’, Malla concludes.
