Fertiberia want to beat Nava with the help of their supporters

Fertiberia Balonmano Puerto Sagunto face Balonmano Nava at the Ovni on 22 April, from 18:30. The match is effectively a final between the first- and second-placed teams. A key match in the race to get closer to automatic promotion. The red-and-white coach, Toni Malla, says they are approaching the match with some peace of mind after winning last weekend at the O Rosal sports hall against the team in third place: ‘We are approaching this match with much more peace of mind after beating Novás. But now we have to face the next challenge, focusing on what we set out to do at the beginning of this phase: take it one match at a time ’.

Regarding the opponent they will face, Malla says: ‘We are facing the best opponent to visit the Ovni this season. They are a great team with many players who were playing in ASOBAL last season. They have great quality and are very dangerous in every aspect of the game. Defensively, they are a tough team; they are also running more and more, and their attack is full of options. If the match against Novás was extremely difficult, this one will be even more so. We have to come to the Ovni with the utmost concentration so that everyone can do their job. It will be the most complicated challenge we will face for the rest of the season, and we approach it with the peace of mind of knowing that we won last week, which allows us to make the occasional mistake. Obviously, we are going for the two points because the more matches we win now, the better’

‘We are very excited about the match and encourage the supporters to come and fill the Ovni, although I think they will do so anyway because, just as the team is excited, I think the supporters are too. We need their backing more than ever because it will make the difference. The match will be decided by fine margins, and their support will be decisive. When we go there it will be hell, and we have to make the Ovni the same for them ’, concludes Malla regarding the importance ofthe supporters’ backing for this match.
