The severe impact of the sixth wave of the pandemic has not ignored the sport and, in the case of basketball, both the Women’s League Uni and the Girona Gold League have been stopped for days by the cases detected in your dressing room and / or in rivals. But once the situation is over, both Spar and Bàsquet Girona are ready to compete again. They will do it tomorrow. The girls, in Valencia (4pm), twelve days after their last appearance; the boys in Madrid, on the track of the Estudiantes (12h), the most formidable rival of the competition, big favorite in the ascent.
“The match with Valencia is not in the best conditions. The pandemic is strongly attacking society at large and sport. We have come out of a major outbreak and the return to work has come with many conditions. Just today (yesterday) we were able to do a group training, with all the loss of small mechanisms that this entails “, said Alfred Julbe yesterday. The Spar Girona coach considers that “we have to do what we have to do, which is to provide entertainment and fight hard to make Uni solid in all competitions”. Eldebrink, who is still injured and has been out for a couple more weeks, and Araújo are shaping up as the only casualties for tomorrow.
Even more days ago, the players of Girona Basketball did not compete. Stopped since December 17, when they beat Palma in Fontajau, the matches against Oviedo, Lleida and Melilla have been falling one after the other. For outbreaks in one’s own dressing room, and that of rivals. Finally tomorrow, if the virus does not prevent it at the last minute, Marc Gasol and his teammates will return to action, in Madrid, against Estudiantes. The game, which is already quite attractive, has the incentive to also allow the debut of the latest signing, Máximo Fjellerup (Palma) who arrived this week and is already training in Fontajau. Fjellerup arrives, and Robert Cosialls loses the card to make room for him as he negotiates his departure from the club.
