The year for Barça basketball did not start in the best way with the positive cases of coronavirus, and the lost games that the National League gave up for not having presented a team, plus the defeat with Unión. However, all this could change with a new title to continue enlarging the showcase.
It is that for having won the last National League, San Lorenzo earned the right to play the third edition of the super cup, a tournament that it has already won in its last two editions. The appointment will be next Saturday, January 22 from 6:30 p.m. at the Rock Temple, home of Obras Sanitarias, and its rival will be Quimsa from Santiago del Estero, champion of the Super 20 edition 2021.

The Super Cup was played for the first time in the 2017 edition, where San Lorenzo was crowned against Regatas. The following year the Cyclone defeated San Martin de Corrientes, and lifted the trophy for the second time. However, the 2019 edition, which had to face those from Boedo with Quimsa, was suspended due to the pandemic (it was going to be played in April 2020). The same thing happened with the 2020 edition, where San Lorenzo was already classified for having won the Super 20, but when the LNB was canceled, the trophy was not disputed. This will be the third edition of the Super Cup; Can Castiñeira’s team be crowned three-time champion?
