Erkiaga is positioned to score a ball with his right foot. /
They get the ticket after beating Aimar and Olharan (2-1) in two very competitive duels, and the txapela will be played next Friday
The single basket punta that is played in the Mendibarren pediment in Berriatua will have the same finalists as last year. Erkiaga and López will play the txapela next Friday after winning the ticket last night by beating Aimar and Olharan (2-1), respectively, in two very even duels with full stands. The morbid is served
The striker from Ispaster had to squeeze himself to leave out the local puntista in a tough match, with few concessions and dominated by emotion. The first set went to the defender who, with a calmer ball, managed to dominate the rally. He was very focused, made few mistakes and the shots he made came off. The striker had a hard time getting into the clash and paid the consequences (9-12).
In the second, the ball caught more bounce and Erkiaga started better, but Aimar remained very serious and forced his rival to bring out his best version so that the game would not slip away. He came to have two goals ahead (9-11) and the option to close it, but he did not succeed and Ispaster’s is not one of those who fail when given the slightest opportunity (12-11). In the final the ball they were using broke but the forward had more resources when forces were scarce (5-3).
Reaction
And if the first was vibrant, the second was even more so. López wanted to get rid of last year’s thorn and reconcile with the fans, and he will have the opportunity to do so after defeating Olharan in a very physical duel in which he cost the Zumaia defender to come into play. The Basque-French knew how to tangle, moved well, and took the first set with considerable authority (6-12).
In the second, with the ball more lively, the forces were equalized from the first bars. The Gipuzkoan served better than his rival, gave the ball speed and did damage on the rebound. In this way he achieved a 5-1 run that led the match to the third set (12-8). In the final, the striker was given the serve and opted for a new ball. But López was sure and got to be 3-1. Olharan reacted and, after the draw at 4, everything was decided in the last breath. Both had the opportunity to finish and scored very difficult balls, but it was the man from Zumaia who took the plunge.
