Hozono Global Jairis Alcantarilla, mathematically saved from relegation for several days, did not say goodbye to his fans as he would have liked this season in the Endesa Women’s League and lost 50-55 against Lointek Gernika Bizkaia during his last game at home in the campaign of his first in the national basketball elite.

The game, which also bid farewell to 41-year-old Brazilian international center veteran and true basketball legend Erika de Souza, was dominated by the Basque team from the start, albeit by a narrow margin in the Fausto Vicent pavilion. .

The first period ended with Gernika up four points (9-13) and went into halftime with a 25-28 lead. After the intermission, the same trend of few annotations and minimal advantages continued for the Biscayan team, which planted in the last ten minutes with a +4 (37-41).

The final stretch, with the uncertainty of the result, kept the same scenario and scoring each basket was expensive. In this context, the team coached by Eric Surís remained close to their rival but ended up giving in despite the 12 points of Rebeca Cotano and the 9 of the Canadian Aislinn Konig, top scorers of the Murcia team.

Belén Arrojo and Slovenian Shante Evans remained in 7, Mozambican Tamara Seda in 6, Brazilian Débora Costa in 4, Claudia Contell in 3 and Erika de Souza in 2, while Portugal’s María Bettencourt did not make the first .

In the rival, the top scorer was Laura Spreafico with 18 goals.

The last match for Jairis, fourteenth in the standings with 11 wins and 18 losses, will take place next Saturday at 7 p.m. at the Perfumerías Avenida de Salamanca pitch.
