incidents
Match corresponding to day 25 of the Endesa League played in the Nou Congost pavilion in front of 4,000 spectators.
The great defensive intensity of the locals marked the clash, which was presided over by the bad start of Obradoiro, who he was only able to score one of the first sixteen triples he attempted.
After a few first minutes of testing, Manresa broke the game with a three-pointer from Harding (15-7) and the lead grew to twelve points at the end of the first quarter.
A 14-2 run practically sealed the game seven minutes from the breakwhen the difference was already 20 points for the locals (29-9), which increased to 24 for Manresa, who was very inspired by rebounding, shooting and played in very fast transitions with Robinson as a stiletto.
At the start of the third quarter, Obradoiro has not shown signs of improvement. For its part, Manresa has followed its own, with a very good generalized shooting percentage in the team, very intense in defense and impeccable in attack (51-21 min 22:10).
Despite the fact that Manresa lowered its effectiveness, the zero of eight in triples for the visiting team and the good defense of Bages have maintained the differences.
When the game was already ready for judgment, Obradoiro showed his pride, began to score from the perimeter and managed to a partial 0-13 to make up the result (70-49 min 34:35).
The Galicians made more cuts, although a final reaction from Manresa has left the match at the final 80-65, with which Bages’ men take a new step towards permanence.
