Heads and tails of the Agustinos Foundation and EÓN Horneo Alicante on the eighth day of the Silver Honor League in men’s handball. The first one defeated Zamora at home (30-21), while the second one suffered a tight defeat against Guadalajara (33-32).
EON took on one of the promotion’s favorites. Every time they thought they could turn the score around, attacking mistakes occurred. Fernando Latorre’s team knew how to recover from the initial slump and managed to enter the first half with only a one-point lead (17-16).
After passing the locker room, EÓN Horneo Alicante came out with everything and managed to take the lead. However, when it looked like they were in control, Guadalajara took the game into their own zone and advanced to the 4th place, while at the same time EON could not score and could not get any closer to the scoreboard.
Despite this, the Alicante team did not give up trying and they only managed to go one minute ahead with less than five minutes remaining. Guadalajara managed to react and the local goalkeeper stopped the seven-metre shot; This was the third time EON had failed to score and this could well have helped them take the lead.
With half a minute remaining, EÓN had a new opportunity from the over, thanks to a chance from Alberto González, but once again the local goalkeeper prevented the goal from entering. Like this, Guadalajara remained ahead in the scoreboard despite playing the last seconds of the match at a disadvantage..
