This time it was at the Ciudad de Santiago del Estero Stadium, where again, with a great collective effort, the team from Corrientes accounted for Catamarca Basket by 61 to 47, thus adding the fifth victory in a row.
From the first quarter Novatti’s took an advantage that allowed them to clearly dominate the game to their liking until the close. Sofía Cabrera was again a figure with 15 points, while Armesto and Bazán converted 10 each. In Catamarca Rebola was the top scorer with 14 points.
The first part of the game showed some parity on the board until late in the quarter, when things went 8 to 10 for Corrientes, in an entertaining duel with a good pace from both sides. In this way they achieved a partial from 0 to 8 to finish the initial quarter 8 to 18.
The second period continued with the superiority of the team from Corrientes, which put its second unit on the field to maintain the intensity and defensive pressure, and making the attack flow by moving the ball. With this good level of play, those from the Northeast were up 16 (11 to 27), and were able to maintain the advantage almost without complications, and the first half was 17 to 31 for Corrientes Básquet.
