Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto win through their defence

Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto beat AX Puente Genil Avia 29–25 This Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto team is built from the back forwards, and it is certainly proving that in these first seven rounds. Croatian coach Nikola Milos stopped the flow of goals conceded by the Valencian side, the league’s most heavily defeated team for two consecutive seasons, and with that, together with a goalkeeper who once again recorded 44% effectiveness, victory is getting closer. And this Puente Genil side is not the same as in other seasons either. Quino Soler has given the team more defensive attitude, and with Oliva behind him (36% for him), that also raises the level of the Puente Genil side. In fact, the match began favourably for Puente Genil, who scored fluently and kept the Valencian attackers quiet. As a result, the Ovni had to wait until 4:38 for Fertiberia’s first goal. Along the same lines, they did not move ahead until the 16th minute, when a 7–6 score gave them their first lead, which they would not surrender until the end of the match. The aforementioned defensive contribution and the first appearances of the Valencians’ two first-line players, Sorrentino and Pacheco, meant that the home team reached half-time with a four-goal lead. They initially maintained the gap in the second half and, although Josic was less effective today, scoring four goals, Rudovic was the only Puente Genil player whom Bruixola could not decipher, finishing the match with ten goals. A Puente Genil surge midway through the second half brought them within one goal of Puente Genil, but that was as close as they came, because David Bruixola and Sorrentino took the comeback on their shoulders to restore the four-goal margin. It remained that way until the end, securing Fertiberia’s first home victory in this Liga Loterías Asobal season. Fertiberia’s next match will be at the Catedral against Helvetia Anaitasuna next Saturday at 17:00.
