The peñistas lost again and they did it clearly on the Leyma Basket Coruña court in a match with two very different sides and in the first two quarters Carlos Lanau’s men managed to maintain their form and reach the break with 39-33. But in the second period the team fell apart and the superiority and quality of the Galicians ended up sentencing the Huesca with the final result of 83-65.
Levitec Huesca La Magia has accumulated twelve defeats and knows that in order to win games it has to compete for 40 minutes and at a very high and demanding pace that it cannot maintain against rivals such as Leyma Basket Coruña who, as Carlos Lanau had said in the previous one, even with Low has a lot of potential. In addition, once again the squad was depleted by the casualties of Javi García who is injured and Xavi Rey at the last minute due to knee discomfort.
The game began with a lot of equality and thanks to this the electronic score was maintained with a 17-15 at the end of the first quarter. In the second, Coruña went one step further and Peñas began to see shortcomings, but the score at half-time was still tied at 39-33 for the locals.
As has happened on many occasions throughout the season, Peñas suffered a lot in the second half and from 42-33 there was no reaction and the differences widened until the end of the third quarter with 62-49 and everything was sentenced.
In the last ten minutes, Basket Coruña finished off a Levitec Huesca La Magia delivered with the final 83-65. The days continue to pass and there are already twelve consecutive defeats that weigh like a slab. Sikiras with 15 points was the supporters’ top scorer, the same points scored by Rafa Casanova and Ayoze Alonso scored 14. Dial debuted with 7 points and had his first minutes wearing the Levitec Huesca La Magia shirt.
The arrival of the reinforcements has brought a bit of fresh air, but they are young and inexperienced players and if we add the casualties again, there are few options left to try to add a good result.
The next match will be against Acunsa Gipuzkoa on Wednesday the 16th, at 8:00 pm, at the Palacio de los Deportes where the team will have another opportunity to try to change the dynamic.
