Moreno’s team with a great and explosive first quarter led the victory over San Justo by 89-61. Martirena was a scorer with 23 points.
Match without equivalences, Los Indios came out to be forceful against Huracán and with Kevin Jerez Pilotti intractable from 6.75 and Martirena in the painted zone, they resolved a match that on paper could be even. The pivot born on July 9 finished with 23 units, while the former Lanús point guard finished with 17 points and 9 assists. On the side of San Justo, Mansilla and Ortega, with 16 each, were the offensive lighthouses.
From the initial jump, Los Indios went out to eat the Globe raw, with Jerez Pilotti (15) as master and lord of the game nailing a whopping 5/6 in triples. From that gale, the Indian was able to take advantage of the movement of the ball to find Martirena (10) under the basket and thus continue to do damage. Those led by Ariel Mansilla had answers thanks to the tireless Alen Mansilla (9), plus the entry of Ortega (7), in this way Moreno’s closed up 35-21.
In the second chapter, those led by Juani González did not take their foot off the accelerator. Martirena (6) continued to be the reliable way of scoring in the paint, plus a good entry from Sánchez (5) to take the maximum (48-29) with 2:15 to play. However, those from San Justo did not lower their arms and with a zonal defense dried up the locals. Key entry of Abalo (9) in a run of 10-0, to reach parity (48-39) at the long break.
After talks in the locker room, the tone of the meeting did not change. Los Indios pressed and found an inexhaustible source of goals: Martirena (7) sealing the defense to be unstoppable under the rim and begin to define history in favor of the locals. Hurricane was left without a goal and only the hot hand of Ortega (6) left him down 22 (73-51) at the close of the third.
In the last ten, those led by Juani González did not take their foot off the accelerator, to finish breaking the game. Good passage from Piaggio (6) to get the maximum (84-54) in the epilogue of the fourth. Both coaches were able to give minutes to the bench and the result was sealed at 89-61 for Moreno’s team.
