Coulibaly celebrates a basket with his fist raised. /
The IDK Euskotren has two days left to certify fifth place, the first this afternoon in the Fortunate Islands (20.00)
Azu Muguruza is able to show us that you can go by train, or by mole, to Gran Canaria. IDK Euskotren has its last two regular league games in just four days. Today’s, penultimate day, is in Gran Canaria (8:00 p.m.) and the closing match will be on Sunday at Gasca (8:00 p.m.) against Tenerife. The coach from San Sebastian has another huge challenge. Who was going to say it after three decades on the bench and having shown everything in the world of the basket. The coach from San Sebastian has within reach of reaching 18 victories in the regular league, 60% of victories. An enormous merit and it would become another milestone in her long career.
Because there is no quiet day in the Endesa Women’s League and Zaragoza’s victory against Girona means that the Ibaeta team cannot rest on their laurels. The tricks are tied with the IDK Euskotren, but the average favors the Donostiarras. Zaragoza has two affordable matches, so IDK must go to win both today and Sunday, if they do not want to fall to sixth position. Finishing fifth pairs in the eliminatory for the title with Cadí La Seu, an affordable rival. However, falling between sixth and eighth place means that the crossover is against the three almighty ones: Perfumerías, Girona or Valencia, so the objective is fifth place.
Coulibaly, in charge
The sensations are good for IDK Euskotren, who has just defeated Cadí in Gasca by twenty points with an imperial Mariam Coulibaly. If this team has shown anything over the course, it is that it is being very reliable and there is no doubt that they can win today. IDK’s offensive game will continue to pivot on the Malian interior, plus the points that come from the hands of the exterior. Lauren Cox, after having had the flu, did not have a good day last weekend, but with the Texan being at a medium level, she can swing the game in favor of the Gipuzkoans.

The Gran Canaria team is not an easy rival since they are going to rush their options to enter the playoffs for the title. He has a significant loss, that of his insider Sika Koné, who has affected the meniscus of her right knee. The African, a compatriot of Coulibaly, has averaged 12 points and 11 rebounds, and yesterday it was learned that she was selected by the New York Liberty to play in the WNBA next year.
Lydia Giomi (9 points and 9 rebounds on average), Blanca Millán (10 points per game) and Valerie Nesbitt (9 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists) stand out from the Gran Canaria squad.
