What one sensed a Barça walk in Irún, because Bidasoa was missing Azkue, Aginagalde, Salinas and Renaud, It is not that it ends in suffering for the Barcelona fans, but it did result in a I find myself entertaining and with interest until the end because Cuétara’s painting was not delivered never, recovered the differences, and showed that he has talent in his lower teams (Urruzola, Furundarena): 26-32 (11-16).
The difference in quality defined the match, especially because between Gonzalo Pérez and the full-backs, Langaro, Mem and Richardson, it would have been enough for Barça on any other court. Not in Irún, where Bidasoa commanded the first 15 minutes, and then it was falling by small Barça streaks to mark the differences.
Of course, Bidasoa plays, it has many movements and imagination, and above all a creator like Odriozola. Normally his position is far right, but without Salinas he had to play side, although he moves where he wants. Something will have to study his coach so that he maintains that activity when he returns to the extreme where, for the good of his team, he should not be tied up.
By inertia, Barçá was taking differences, with which Ortega sent the track to Barça B players who complete the call due to casualties, but in the final stretch, when Biadsoa lowered the seven goals (20-27) to four, he sent the starters to the court, and Parera and Palomino back to the bench. It is not to point them out, but to avoid scares.
