Fertiberia record a convincing victory against former Asobal side Zamora

Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto secured a convincing 37–22 victory over MMT Seguros Zamora in a match they dominated from start to finish against another recently relegated side from the top tier of Spanish handball.

Fertiberia took to the court eager to get back to action after the Christmas break. Following a closely fought opening spell, the red-and-whites began to build a lead as Don David Bruixola shut the door in the home goal and Josep, Marcos, Pocholo and Camacho were highly accurate in front of goal. As a result, they went into half-time with an 11-goal advantage (19–8).

After the interval, the match continued along the same lines and Vicente Nogués decided to give the less frequently used players some minutes. They delivered, not only maintaining the 11-goal lead but extending it. Chueca performed well in goal, Ángel López scored twice, and Óscar, Nacho, Toni and Corzo performed as they usually do.

It should be noted that before the match, the club paid tribute to its academy players and to the female academy players of sister club BM Morvedre for the excellent results they achieved at CESA 2019.
