Since Altuna III returned after recovering from his shoulder injury, everything has changed for the combination he forms with Martija. The first match they played together was missed by a goal after the man from Amezketa hit a ball on the plate, but in the next three their improvement has been notable and this Sunday they started the year with a smile at the Astelena fronton in Eibar . They have defeated Peña II and Albisu, they leave the bottom of the Parejas classification at the end of the first round and become rivals to keep in mind for the second round.
Those from Aspe have achieved a fairly comfortable victory against opponents who have only lasted the first part of the match. In the second they have brought out their worst version with constant errors and have sold themselves down in an incomprehensible way. The Tolosa striker had had a bad night due to gastroenteritis and retired to the locker room when the score read 8-7, but he returned to the game and was able to finish it.
The more than a thousand spectators who gathered in the stands of the Gipuzkoan fronton were left wanting a ball. They have enjoyed until the halfway point of the contest, but the second part has been a monologue from the Colorados.
After the first break
And almost no one expected what happened given the equality that existed in the first goals. Those who have dressed in blue have managed to counteract the play of their rivals because Albisu has hit good shots that his teammate has taken advantage of perfectly. Martija suffered and lost the only two balls of the entire match, but he was well helped by an Altuna III that went further and showed the quality it possesses.
It was after the first mandatory break (12-9) when Baiko’s team began to dissipate and were unable to raise their heads. The Colorados made a ball from their rivals that was more difficult to move because it had lost its shine, and the rest of the game was a walk for them. Peña II and Albisu have lost up to eight balls, many without any mystery. And in a situation like this, the winners have known how to move perfectly. The goals were short, and Altuna III and Martija moved the ball well and broke the confrontation definitively.
When it wasn’t due to the opponent’s mistakes, the man from Amezketa has found the spaces he was looking for both in the ‘txoko’ and at the back. With a right hand from their defender to the nine-and-a-half square against the wall, they reached the second mandatory stoppage (18-9) and, from then on, Peña II and Albisu have definitively collapsed.
In the first match of the Promotion Couples that opened the festival, Egiguren V and Aldabe, Eskuza’s substitute, defeated Bakaikoa (22-21), who played in place of Alberdi II, and Morgaetxebarria.
