Earn to grow. AtticoGo CBM Elche seems to adopt this axiom at this point in the season when players led by Joaquín Rocamora are going through a sweet moment after the difficult start of the course. In A Guarda, the “Franjiverdes fighters” added their fifth consecutive win in the league; this will be eight wins including the competition and the Cup across the continent and climbed to fifth place in the standings.

The match was complicated from start to finish in a pavilion where winning is always difficult. The Galicians started much better with a very serious threat of secession (7-3, min.12) led by an extra-motivated Afrika Sempere. It was difficult for the women of Elche, but they gradually overpowered their opponent and, inspired by the Wolfs, who would finish the game as the team’s top scorer with six goals, they again dueled. In the total number of players playing the match, only Marqués (seven goals) surpassed him.

At the start of the second half, Wolfs’ hand response was completed with a partial hit that allowed AtticGo Elche to flex and gain the advantage (16-19, min 44). It looked like the ideal moment to break the game and set sail for a comfortable victory, but the locals responded with a 3-0 draw, leveling the score.

The final moments left several alternatives and options to win on both sides. At that moment, Brazilian Do Nascimento emerged, who was involved in the franciverde discipline to put his signature under the performances like yesterday. The veteran winger scored two of his team’s last three goals, including 23-24 with two minutes left.

In the last 120 seconds, the result has not changed anymore. AtticGo Elche, with its goalkeeper and defense, defended two points that allowed it to continue to rise in the rankings and above all to keep growing a project that had only brought good news lately. They are already in fifth place and are just one point ahead of the three teams. Next Wednesday is the time to accept the leader Bera Bera.
