Spar Girona started a new week of work yesterday with the aim of recovering from defeat in front of the Casademont Zaragoza (65-38) in the first match of the Women’s League. The team led by Laura Antoja missed the many casualties that it carries and was left without arguments at Príncipe Felipe, where it became clear that it still needs more preparation time and, of course, cash available in the squad. In this sense, Uni has good news: Morgan Bertsch arrives in Girona tomorrow.

The American player, who has to make a difference in the Girona team, is the last to join once her presence in the WNBA was closed after being eliminated by the Aces with the Chicago Sky in the quarter-finals by 2-0.
The club has managed to speed up his arrival and Bertsch has barely been able to enjoy a few days of vacation to be able to put himself under Antoja’s orders as soon as possible, but, even so, it is very complicated, at times from now on, that can help theSpar Girona this Friday in the semi-final match of the Catalan League LF against him Barça CBS which will be contested at the Palau d’Esports de la Seu d’Urgell (6:15 p.m.). Surely, it would be hasty. However, in this way, Bertsch will be able to attend the League opener in Fontajau on Saturday 7 October against the Blaugrana.
Earrings by Ainhoa López
The Spar Girona infirmary is full and it doesn’t look like it should be emptied soon. The team is awaiting the return ofAinhoa López, after suffering a hamstring injury in his left leg earlier this month. The escort missed the first League game in Zaragoza due to relapse prevention, but her evolution is favorable and Antoja will have to decide whether to count on her in the Catalan League.
On the other hand, there are the injuries of Magali Mendy and Irati Etxarri. As well as that of Kelsey Mitchell, who is still on vacation and won’t join the team for a few days. The club is confident that he can make his debut on October 7 against the Barça CBSjust as Bertsch will.
Casualties condemn Spar’s options in Zaragoza (65-38)
“We have to take stock of the construction and put ourselves in the real situation we are living. We have to open up the landscape. We are missing five players and there are details to improve, especially offensively. We have to work on the collective game, play the ball and have more mobility without people stopping. It’s a very hard start to life, but we have to keep working”, said Antoja after the defeat in Zaragoza.
