The La Rioja team managed to celebrate for the second time in the tour of the Federal Capital by defeating San Lorenzo de Almagro.
The National League day opened at the Roberto Pando Sports Center, with a game hosting San Lorenzo and Riachuelo de La Rioja. The rivalry was even, but the visitors were the ones to celebrate, taking the game 72 to 62. With this result, those led by Leo Costa were left with a record of 10-8, placing them in eighth place Riachuelo, for his part, is close to 50% effective for the season. In 17 games played, he reached a record of 8-9 and is excited about reclassification (13th).
The game had an even process from the start, but with the visitors taking the actions thanks to the intense activity near the edge. With Andrés Ibarguen and Young trying to create space, those led by Sebastián González began to take advantage. On the perimeter, Anyeuri Castillo’s hand is also important. El Ciclón suffered from a lack of effectiveness from the perimeter throughout the game; with only two conversions in the first half. On the way back from the locker room the story got a little rougher; with players sparking each other in the defensive sector. This benefited the home owner, who made his rival uncomfortable and managed to score in a few minutes. Despite his efforts, the Blaugrana missed many chances and ended up leaving empty-handed.
The figures:
Three players ended up in double figures for the Rioja team. Anyeuri Castillo was the scorer with 18 points, in addition to 7 rebounds and 3 assists on his personal scoresheet. He was accompanied by Andrés Ibarguen, author of 14 units. Anthony Young completed the offensive trident with 13 points and 7 boards. In San Lorenzo the best came from the hand of Kévin Hernández; author of 15 points, with 5/8 on two-point shots and 1/1 from the perimeter.
