Xeneize received Comunicaciones in the penultimate game of the year in the National League. It was a victory for Boca in Luis Conde, who are positioned in sixth place in the table. Carlos Duro’s men want to return to the top and end a three-match losing streak at home. In addition, they returned to high scores, something not seen in these matches.
Xeneize ends bad streak at home
At the start of the match, it seemed a narrative foretold for Xeneizes to come from three defeats at home. Comu led the scoring with Evan Maxwell (9 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists) leading the way. The American center stood firm throughout the first quarter and imposed the maximum eight for those from Corrientes. But with a close finish and a great comeback from Boca, the locals turned things around and went on to win.
The match continued in the second period, Communications did not let up and once again took the lead in points. But Carlos Duro’s men quickly put themselves on top and never went down. Raven Barber (20 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist) is starting to show what kind of night he’s going to have and it’s going to be a very good one. Boca retired at half-time seven points ahead of its rival.
The second half is about the locals getting themselves into the game and starting to build their distinction. However, Communications tried to ensure that the people of La Ribera did not distance themselves. But in the middle of the third quarter, they could not avoid the effect of their rival. In the final period, Boca reached the maximum of 19 with the extraordinary Pepe Vildoza (19 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal). But the visit reduced that inequality to 15 and that was the final score.
How are you two?
This is the penultimate game of the year for the National League, therefore, and after Platense – Obras, there will be a two-week break in the competition. Boca will return to the fields on January 8 when it visits Unión de Santa Fe at Ángel P. Malvicino. A Tatengue in need of victories will have to face sixth place in the table, a difficult challenge for those from Ponce. While Communications will have filming again, starting on the 12th. It will host the Zárate Basket in Corrientes. Comu also need to win to climb the positions, but it will be difficult against the Manu Anglese team, which is rising higher.
