Roller hockey returns this Saturday to the Canterac sports center with a double day of the main CPLV teams. After a month-long hiatus in competition for the World Cup in Buenos Aires (Argentina), Caja Rural and Munia Panteras will host Skulls Almássera and SAB Tucans Vitaldent respectively, with defeats in both teams but with the clear objective of resume leagues with wins.
The first to jump onto the Canterac track will be the Panthers. With the aftertaste of the title in the World Championship, with Ana Sierra, Olivia Monjas and Anna Domenech as CPLV protagonists, the Valladolid team will receive, from 6:00 p.m., an opponent who always generates many problems and who does not hasn’t yet known defeat so far this season. It will also be the first time they meet since last season’s final, which opted for Munia Panteras.
The coach won’t be able to count on Ana de Saja or Corinna Weimann, but he has the rest available for what promises to be one of the toughest and most complicated matches of the season. In fourth place, with one win and one loss, Munia Panteras will receive third place, with two wins and no losses. And with players like Carla Bascón or Laia Mercadé, who were the best last year and are still in the Catalan team, as well as goalkeeper Xenia Seoane, an absolute international and also world champion.
From 7:30 p.m., it will be the turn of the Caja Rural CPLV, which will host Skulls Almássera. Pablo Gomes Navarro will have several injuries, including Marcos Pérez, who returned injured from the World Cup, Eloy Valls, who continues his recovery process from a broken arm, and Canadian Dave Hammond.
The residents of Valladolid sit second in the standings, just one point behind leader Molina of the Canary Islands. While the Valencians do not know the victory after three days. They have as new faces the coach of the Italian players Riccardo Iuriatti, the Argentinian Gustavo Rojas, and Toni Biosca and Marc Expósito. Among their ranks stand out the Slovak veteran Peter Varinsky and the Finn Olli Pietila.
To end the day on Saturday, the male subsidiary, the Lexus CPLV, will receive the Tucans Asme Optical Wall from 9:00 p.m.
