The skilled team eliminated Perfumerías to repeat the final, while the ‘taronja’ defeated Movistar Estudiantes
MADRID, 23 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –
This Sunday, Casademont Zaragoza will seek to repeat the title in the LF Endesa Queen’s Cup, which is being held at the Carolina Marín Sports Palace (Huelva), after eliminating Perfumerías Avenida in the semifinals (61-73), meeting in the final with a Valencia Basket that gave no option (77-50) to Movistar Estudiantes.
In the first semifinal, the ‘taronja’ team maintained its favoritism to return to the fight for the Cup three years later. The current League champion entered with a 24-6 run that destroyed Movistar Estudiantes’ chances of continuing to make history. The Madrid team suddenly woke up from its dream of playing in the final.
Leticia Romero, Alina Iagupova and Alba Torrens destroyed ‘Estu’ to take the ‘Taronja’ team to the title match for the second time in their history after the final they lost in 2021. After the break, Gracia Alonso de Armiño and Stephanie Mawuli looked for a comeback, but Rubén Burgos’ team did not want any surprises.
This Sunday, at 12:30, Valencia, who wants to dedicate the title to Raquel Carrera who was seriously injured in the quarterfinals, will try to dethrone a Casademont Zaragoza team that made history last year with its first title and also at home . This time in the semis, the skilled team once again defeated a Perfumerías team that was clearly losing at halftime (26-43).
The current champion withstood the Salamanca’s attempted reaction in the second half, to seek a second title in a row. Diallo (16 points), Fiebich (15) and Mariona Ortiz (11 points and 7 rebounds) once again frustrated Perfumerías, like last year in the final, the team with the most Cups in its record (10).
