Corrientes once again received the Women’s Basketball League. A great leadership bet so that the Corrientes franchise can play the quarterfinals of the competition as a local. Well, he took advantage of it because he became strong with a great offensive solidity to prevail by a great difference 51 to 38. He shared the scoring between García, Cabrera, Murphy and Armesto.
Despite the good decisions in attack, for both teams it was an erratic start, just with two minutes and a fraction to go until the closing time, the scoring opened. This seemed to suit Los Indios better, as they were able to break through Corrientes’ defense and go up 7-6.
The second quarter was played at a different pace, running and moving the ball well, the Corrientes found a goal and escaped on the scoreboard (11-15) with four remaining to play. The answer was not long in coming from Los Indios, who were still effective from 6.75 and González discounted. However, in the best moment of Pérez’s, Corrientes adjusted in defense and in attack he looked for Murphy who with three consecutive triples closed the fourth up by a clear 17-28.
In the third, Corrientes continued to impose his rhythm, aggressive in defense and running in attack, hurting in the painted area with D’agostino and García to widen the difference to thirteen (21-34). Los Indios improved in the closing, capitalized on errors by Corrientes and the game became more even, the scoring decreased although those led by Almeida would again take over the partial by 10-9 to continue on top (26-38).
With a 5-0 run, Corrientes Básquet started determined to close it quickly, but Los Indios was far from worrying and without despairing with a more fluid offense in the hands of Alonzo and González closed the gap (36-43). This led to the call for attention from the Corrientes bank that in the resumption did what it should, returned to command the actions. Imposing his rhythm, playing a long attack with more determination to widen the difference again and thus sentence history in the hands of Sofía Cabrera. Thus, Corrientes Básquet prevailed 51-38 in the first point of the quarterfinals against Los Indios de Moreno.
