Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto treat themselves in Cangas

Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto have beaten BM Cangas convincingly (27–37).

When a team believes in themselves and their coach, all previous pre-season impressions are cancelled out. With the first two points at stake, Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto have shown that this league did not start in August but in September. When a team defends as well as this combative group assembled by Nikola Milos, and works hard enough to allow the tireless David Bruixola to shine, there is no opponent who can find the net. Bruixola once again finished with a stratospheric 44% save rate today, and in handball that is half the match. And if collective attacking play finally comes to the red-and-whites, and their key players begin to emerge, pivot Pozzer, 11 from 12, remains in Rio 2016 mode, while today Ángel Pérez de Inestrosa was the Ángel Pérez everyone had been expecting, scoring 8 goals from 10 shots. There is little more to say. Cangas, still under construction, were greatly affected by their new players' lack of adaptation, and only the experienced David Garcia and the ever-reliable Muratovic kept the Galician scoring going, with 6 and 7 goals respectively. The match was a Valencian concert, as after 15 minutes they had established the first gap. As we said, this came from the defence: 5–8 was the first of the advantages that continued to grow, thanks to defensive intensity, which allowed Milos's players to launch second and third waves today. A commanding 13–18 at half-time gave the Valencians wings. However, it remained to be seen whether their fitness would keep Fertiberia performing at that level. And so it proved: the defence did not drop its intensity one iota and, despite the imbalance in suspensions, the periods of playing a man down were handled well by the red-and-whites. In the end, Puerto Sagunto continued to vindicate themselves after their disastrous August, while Cangas abandoned themselves to their fate, leading to a decisive final margin of ten goals for Fertiberia. At the end of the match, Fertiberia's Croatian coach, Nikola Milos, stated that “I am absolutely delighted for the players, who fought like lions. I knew we had a good team, but today they gave a lesson in fighting, commitment and supporting one another, and that is what matters in sport.” After a long but enjoyable journey home, Fertiberia now face another challenge: this Wednesday from 20:15 at the Ovni against Villa de Aranda.
