Atticgo Balonmano remains in the fight with Elche Málaga as they prepare for a pivotal Wednesday night clash at 20:30. The team meets Costa del Sol in the season finale, a decisive match that could crown the Guerreras Iberdrola League champions. The playoffs hinge on a single victory, and the home side will count on its crowd to push for glory. The road ahead is demanding, yet Elche’s squad refuses to back down.
Defender Danila So Delgado spoke to Televisión Española’s Teledeporte ahead of the clash. She expressed cautious optimism: the goal is to extend the campaign for one more game and keep the title dream alive. Elche’s bid to claim the league crown and leave a lasting mark on Spanish women’s handball remains firmly in play, with the squad focusing on Málaga to manage fatigue after a quick succession of travel days.

Opportunities
Following a 24-23 win in Esperanza Lag, Joaquín Rocamora’s crew earned their first chance to clinch the title on Sunday. The match proved tightly contested, and So Delgado admitted afterward that the mood dipped after a late loss (28-26) despite holding a two-goal lead at times. The team faced a stretch of unconverted chances and several defensive slips, yet they never let the game slip away. The late misfires and individual errors at the back were noted, but the spirit remained intact and fight persisted.

Head coach addressed the group on the importance of keeping calm under pressure and reducing mistakes. There is still a single encounter left in the season, and if Atticgo Elche have already beaten Costa del Sol Málaga twice and managed another draw in the mix, a second win could be within reach.
Effectiveness on targets
So Delgado commented, “There was a lull in activity and the saves by the keeper influenced the outcome. When a team defends for extended periods and finally concedes, that sequence matters.”
With a season packed with high-stakes moments and strong showings in domestic cups and European play, the Aragonese fullback praised her teammates and the constant progress they’ve shown week after week. When asked about the support from fans who fill arenas and stadiums, Danila spoke from the heart: the sight of so many supporters fuels her and serves as a beacon for younger players who follow her on social media and look to her leadership as inspiration.
Danila So Delgado continues to be a key figure as the national team selection process nears, aiming to complete the season with league glory as well as a potential call to the absolute squad.
