Perfumerías Avenida is already in the quarterfinals of the Eurocup Women. Anna Montañana’s team were much superior to Ferrol in the round of 16 tie and sealed their place with 57-79 in A Malata.
The blue quintet was made up of Iyana, Vilaró, Spreafico, Kiss and Cave. The charras tried to set the pace and not enter the Galician exchange. Iyana and Vilaró’s triples led the way and Kiss and Cave gave the Salamanca team six points (6-12). The second unit did not give Avenida more power on the court, but it did help them maintain the distance and lead 16-21 at the end of the first act.
The charras took advantage of the start of the second quarter to finish off (if it wasn’t already) the tie. Two plus one from Arrojo, triple from Vilaró and basket after an offensive rebound from Cave. 20-33. And both feet in the quarterfinals of the Eurocup Women. At halftime, the score was 31-42.
As soon as they returned from the locker room, a partial score of 2-12 for the Salamanca team and twenty points of advantage at the halfway point of the third act (36-56). And there the lead moved, two points up, two points down, until closing the event with 44-66.
The final ten minutes had no major mystery: the game was decided; the eliminatory too. And Perfumerías Avenida is already among the eight best in the competition.
