Telecable Gijón celebration after their victory in the Super Cup. | David Valiant

Telecable Gijón could not have started the season better. The girls from Gijón brilliantly won the first official title, the Super Cup, by beating their black beast from last season, Palau i Plegamans, who won the league and the European Cup, both in Gijón. The duel had the intensity that was expected from two teams that do not speculate. However, the defenses were superior to the attacks during the entire first half in which the Gijonesas were unable to take advantage of a direct free kick after Mariona Colomer’s exclusion. Sara Roces could not beat Laura Vicente. The attacks were stopped with many fouls and this facet ended up being decisive, since with 12 minutes to go the Catalans committed the tenth and this time the corresponding direct foul did end in a goal after Marta Piquero’s shot. Telecable defended itself with order and maintained the result.
