Logical defeat of UEMC Real Valladolid Basketball on the Leyma Coruña court. The Valladolid team conceded in the leader’s court, but showed their face despite the losses and physical problems of recent weeks. Without giving up and competing, Paco García’s team completed a good first half and game in general terms, holding the score of the Herculinos and keeping the match with a low score, although they added a new medical incident after Ziggy , one minute into the game, received a blow to the shoulder and retired to the bench so as not to return to the court again, according to the club in a press release.
Leyma Coruña and UEMC RVB, thus, opened the contest with a frenetic pace, although without success, and bad news for Pucela at the first opportunity. If Paco García’s men already arrived in the box and with several players in the middle, Ziggy among them, a blow to the shoulder that the Lithuanian received sent him to the bench only a minute and a half after the ball was thrown into the air. Juan Lambás, the youth player, on the court. And the demonstration that, when in doubt, there is no risk. He had to put the clothes away and hope that they weren’t serious.
And under the leadership of ‘1’ the visitors had the quarter under their control almost until the end. With a low score, very low, and alternatives, UEMC RVB fulfilled the script perfectly for about seven minutes (10-11), but the squirrels lost order in the last three and Leyma Coruña struck. An 8-0 run triggered the advantage and the score so that Diego Epifanio’s men scored the first round (20-13).

The first difficulty of the match arrived and Paco García’s team stopped it perfectly. The UEMC RVB prevented the Herculinos from opening the gap with a great start in the second act. Lucas N’Guessan grew big under the basket and added five points in a row for the visitors, whose handle was now carried by Jaan Puidet, distributing minutes and the responsibility of the Pucelana direction (22-18).
It was a good day for tests, to try to confuse Leyma Coruña and the Valladolid coach opted for Nwogbo and N’Guessan to share the court, in addition to planting a zonal defense that collapsed the Galicians during several possessions. Without Diego Epifanio’s aim, Pucela was limiting errors perfectly… until a few minutes of confusion arrived again.
And the people of Coruña do not forgive one. The best attack in the competition is for a reason and in no time at all, after several losses and after opening the can in the triple (1/8 after seven errors), the local team escaped again (30-23 ). Picking up speed as the match progressed, Riazor’s team revved up and reached half-time with a 13-point lead despite the low score (37-24).

Defeat without lowering your arms
Without aiming in the triple for both teams (1/11 for both), it was difficult to add and score on both sides of the court, but in that aspect precisely the locals stand out and step by step they distanced themselves. The UEMC RVB returned without success, suffering from the physical level of the people from A Coruña and they, willing to break the game as soon as possible, showed one more march.
Also supported by the logic of having more troops, gasoline and energy that served to gradually put ground in the middle. With leads close to 15 points, the visitors were encouraged offensively (but leaving many free throws along the way), although always in tow and suffering to maintain the pulse that Diego Epifanio’s team proposed. This one, with 10 minutes left to play, had a lot of orange color (63-43).
With a good attitude and without giving up, a new series of consecutive baskets by Lucas N’Guessan kept the Castilians relatively close, although the white flag was beginning to be seen on both benches. Neither Leyma Coruña drew blood nor did the UEMC RVB go deep to try to make an epic machada, willingly accepting an exchange of baskets that kept the Herculean income intact (70-50). A good final stretch and triple almost at the buzzer by Juan García-Abril closed the match 80-66 and put an end to a logical but competitive defeat for the squirrels in the leader’s court.
The UEMC Real Valladolid Baloncesto is now facing the last four league games and in its next match it will host the Ureta Tizona Burgos Group on Saturday, April 20, not 90, at the Pisuerga Sports Center.
