There are some teams a special gift dominating a game calmly and comfortably, savoring the sweetness of victory as the minutes pass, and suddenly, almost motionless, thinking that victory slipped through our fingers as the game was just ending. We saw this in the World Cup final on Sunday, where Argentina had to win with great pain three times, and we saw it several times at the Lucentum ground with uneven results. It’s clear it’s like one of the parties Germany won last Friday, by a margin of almost fifty points, do not attract the attention of fans or allow many sports results to be drawn when, for whatever reason, the distance between opponents is too great. But when you have to sink into the mud, when circumstances require you to give your best in an even fight, it can only be decided with a blow of skill, faith, and dedication… ah, friends. Then you fall in love with a team or sport forever. We were all suffering with Argentina, Messi., stroking the cup almost to lose, helpless in the face of the French resistance. No World Cup final with so much emotion, high-voltage shocks and micro-infarctions on the pitch and in the stands has represented anything so well. Followers of HLA Alicante have experienced many times. Because you won the lottery, basketball doesn’t accumulate victory through luck. Here, as the tango says, fighting is brutal and there is a lot, and when you win through suffering… victory tastes better.
It was very difficult to lose a game that we won in 35 minutes, as it was against Palencia at home last season and what could happen to albiceleste in Qatar. But Lucentum’s history also contains many epic encounters. won at the last second (they know this well in Germany) and tremendous victories that many remember from the team’s ACB era. The final season for Lucentum’s participation in the top category of Spanish basketball couldn’t have started more intensely than this. It was played with Bizkaia Bilbao Basket at the Modernization Center., the current league runner-up bringing a great star team like Mumbrú, Raül López or Grimau. The Lucentino side had Llompart, Singler, Ivanov, Rafa Luz… and Txus Vidorreta from Bilbao as coaches. The margin was tight throughout the game, but with less than three minutes to go, Lucentum was down 9 points. It’s four behind with 32 seconds left and my heart is in the fist. We finally managed to win that game with a lot of pain by four points, but what a great way to start the season! How well does he know how to win against Argentina, because he elevates game-changers from the sports Olympus to the category of gods.
We have a date in Pumarín this Thursday. Oviedo by Trifón Poch and Chuso González HLA Alicante does not want to come out of the play-offs, while they want to go to the midfield with relegation places. The Asturians are in good shape and have already shown in this LEB Oro that they can reverse a game they lost by almost twenty points in the last quarter, so a high-tension game is coming. Because we don’t have Messi or Mbappé, we don’t need that either. Rafa Monclova and his men know that those who never give up will win in the end, son.
