The Sabalero cast achieved another victory at Roque Otrino after beating GEPU 96-79 for a new date in the Argentine Basketball League. Gian Franco Sinconi was the scorer of the night with 34 goals.
The first ten minutes were the most complex for the local team. Even though they began taking a seven-point advantage, the shortcomings and impressions arrived early, where GEPU took advantage of those errors through the presence of Gustavo Acosta and the joint game between Feder Ponce and Pablo Osores that in the blink of an eye took the first quarter by just one point.
Already in the second quarter, it was the Colón of most of the games who came out to play with GEPU, leaning on Joaquín Baeza to begin to diagram the play in question through combinations with Russell and Gian Franco Sinconi.

It was one of the moments where Colón managed to have a better team game but above all with the right concentration that this match required. With a great game by Lisandro Gómez Quintero, a Russell who generated much more than the goals he scored and a fiery Gian Franco Sinconi, he caught up with the red and black to be able to have GEPU in his hands.
On the other hand, the visiting cast had several good moments where they always bet on the partnership between Valentín Costa, Gustavo Costa and, to a lesser extent, Pablo Osores, who was in charge of stamping the last triple of the first 20 minutes to go to rest with a partial of 48-37 in favor of the local.
The third step Colón came out onto the field with an intractable Gian Franco Sinconi from all kinds of aspects, where in a matter of two minutes, he managed to add seven points on his personal score. Possibly this was the room where the local team had the most unity, through Joaquín Baeza, NIcolas Bravo himself, the scorer of the night and the contribution of Lisandro Gómez Quintero who not only put aside defensive shortcomings but also who took center stage and achieved a maximum of 21 points in favor.
For their part, those led by Gustavo Fernández tried to get in tune through Jeffrey Merchant, who little by little gained ground in the game, and one of his best players on the hot night in Santa Fe, Valentín Costa, who was They could only shorten the difference a little to go to the bench with a partial in favor of Sabalero by 76-60.
The last rung of the night, Colón defended until the last ball the difference he had achieved on the scoreboard through an outstanding game and contribution from Luca Chiapella and the unity and understanding that existed between Nicolas Bravo and Russell. For its part, GEPU tried, along with several inaccuracies and errors, to get close to Colón on the scoreboard to be able to force an extra time, but the confidence that the team led by Juan Siemienczuk had managed to obtain prevented it, so the fourth and the match ended up being for Colón by 96 to 79.
With this new victory, the Sabalero team must meet one more visitor date on December 9 against one of the strongest teams in the tournament such as Ameghino and will only play again against their people next Monday the 12th when they receive San Isidro.
