Alimerka Oviedo always puts itself at the level of its rival, whatever it may be, it even surpasses it, without ever leading the game; and in the end, as happened again this Saturday against Fuenlabrada, they throw away all the work done in a last stretch in which they always fail and the rival usually gets it right. There is always someone who stands out, almost always Martí. Against Fuenlabrada, Josep Pérez, who had been missing for a long time, once again had a good game, but as sure as that is that there will be someone else who disappears, on this occasion none other than the team’s top scorer. , Horton, who did not add a point in what was his worst game of the season. In total, there are six defeats in a row for an OCB that, at least, remains two ahead with relegation.
This duel against Fuenlabrada, as happened in Pumarín, was difficult, thick, difficult to digest, but except for a bad start, the Oviedo team knew how to adapt to it and take the initiative. In the early stages, after a few minutes of equality, Fuenlabrada made a surge (21-11) culminated in a three-pointer by Jordan Swing, a former Oviedo Baloncesto player who was decisive in his team’s victory. The advantage reached twelve (23-11), but OCB was able to change the course of the match, with some good minutes from Lobaco and with great defensive actions from Hugo López, who also played a very estimable game. The duel went into the second quarter with a five-point advantage for the home team (25-20) and with the OCB more in tune.
This seemed to be confirmed and, in fits and starts, the Oviedo team stopped the scoring of its rival, who was left with only six points in the second quarter. Once again, the OCB squandered the opportunity to get more value out of this good work. But like this, in a game with a broad stroke, at least the Asturian team went to the locker room with an advantage (31-34).
And after the break a disoriented OCB came out, with Elisias doing very strange things that allowed his rival to take the initiative again (38-34) in three minutes in which the visiting team did not open its score. A very forced triple from Chapela began to change things for the Carbayón team and, little by little, with another triple from Lobaco, with Josep Pérez contributing, with Hugo López leaving interesting details, finding Martí in good positions and with some success They went six up (43-49) with 1.26 left in the third quarter, which ended with one less (46-51).
On the horizon the possibility of a tight ending began to appear again, the kind that the OCB throws away time and time again. To make it even more frustrating, Javi Rodríguez’s team remained ahead with some margin until there were 4.42 left to finish (55-61). And there Swing appeared to score three, Sanz made a mistake by posting with Swing himself to try to get the fifth foul and Garino tied (61-61). From there, Martí left himself a free throw, Hugo López was in charge of shooting and missing a triple, two free throws from Josep put Oviedo ahead again (63-64, 2.19 from the end), but Swing shot He made a single triple (66-64), Sanz missed his, Bellas also hit three and only Josep was able to add it again from the free throw line (69-66). An offensive rebound went to Bellas, who added two from the free throw and now, with a five-point lead (71-66) with 45 seconds remaining, there was little more left to do. Just in case, Sanz did not touch the rim in an attempt from three with 20 seconds left that could have put Oviedo Baloncesto within two. But in a tight ending this team always comes up tails.
