Fertiberia aim to turn it around at the Ovni and stay alive in the Copa del Rey

Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto face Ángel Ximénez Puente Genil tomorrow at 18:30 in the second leg of the third Copa del Rey tie. After Wednesday's 31–28 result at the Alcalde Salas Pavilion, qualification for the next round remains undecided at the Ovni. The red-and-whites approach the match with enthusiasm and, despite the absences of Mirallave and Leo Querín, want to overturn the narrow deficit with the fans' support and continue enjoying matches against Asobal teams such as the Córdoba side visiting the city tomorrow. The red-and-white assistant coach, Vicent Sos, said after Wednesday's league match that he was “very satisfied with my players' performance, despite all the adverse circumstances. It is clear that the pace of Asobal teams suits our players better than the speed and intensity of Silver Division play. The possibility of giving the fans something to celebrate remains, and we hope that the coming together of our entire academy, whose presentation is on Saturday, and our fans will give us the extra strength we need to dream of a comeback.” Iván Montoya will be a Hispanos Junior player again Red-and-white pivot Iván Montoya has been called up by Isidoro Martínez to take part in the Four Nations Tournament in Santander with the Hispanos Junior side. Montoya will wear the Spain shirt from 7 to 14 January and will face the national teams of Portugal (11-01-2019), Germany (12-01-2019) and France (12-01-2019). The club congratulates our player, who is one of Nogués's key attacking players, having scored more than 75 goals so far in the regular league season. “It means a lot to be included in a national-team squad again, and I am very excited, as this is the first activity of the year in which the World Championship will take place. I think it will be a wonderful experience and a great tournament which, moreover, is being held in Spain. I am really looking forward to going and starting to work together,” Montoya says.
