In the final leg of the game, however, Goikoetxea and Juanenea have gone down a little bit. Ansa has held on, speeding up the game, and Zubiri has got a little more right in the lead, allowing the representatives of the Bereziartua sidreria to make a hole in the scoreboard and win the game (9-15).
Inthe second game, the Alorrenea couple jumped onto the court with a change of strategy and a need for reaction. Juanenea began to squeeze from the corner and got ahead 4-0.
The Alorrenea lifts have advanced 7-2 and it looked like they were going to send for rest. But then Ansa has done a great deal in the comeback and the recovery of the Bereziartua pelotaris has come. The score has gone back and gone ahead to rest (7-8).
