The match in Santiago del Estero was a real battle, Fusion got the advantage from the start and Instituto followed closely. Those from Ramella took advantage of the physical power in the paint, while those from Alta Córdoba were strong from the triple. The locals took advantage of the entire first period thanks to Fabián Ramírez Barrios (21 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal). In addition, Glory’s invalidation was added, which made them run from behind. Quimsa scored the maximum in the entire second quarter, which was 13 points. But Victoriano’s team reduced the gap to single figures and the defending champions trailed by seven at half-time.
If the first part of this story was exciting, the second is even better. Instituto recovered and was able to return the score in the third quarter with Nicola Pomoli (21 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals). Ramella’s men managed to put the points back in their favor in the last quarter and with the loss of a very important player to sending off. Brandon Robinson was ejected due to a disqualifying technical foul after the collision with Pomoli. The Uruguayan also received a technical foul, but was not ejected from the game with six and a half minutes remaining. In addition to the expulsion of the American from the Santiago team, Mauro Cosolito was expelled from the Institute for a technical foul and unsportsmanlike conduct. They also sent coach Lucas Victoriano to the locker room.
However, Juani Brussino (21 points, 2 rebounds, 6 assists) put on a superhero cape at the end and the Fusion dominated again. Quimsa won a match that showed why they are the defending champions and defeated a candidate for the title by 14 units. The victory positions it as a leader than ever with three more wins than its chaser, Olympic, with 12 dates left to complete the regular season.
What’s next for you two?
The Instituto will return to the Caldera de Alta Córdoba to welcome La Unión de Formosa. Sepo Ginobili’s team achieved victories that allowed it to move out of the second to last position. La Gloria is focused on taking second place from Olympic, but Platense is also on the lookout. While Quimsa finished this window without defeat at home and will now go to Corrientes to visit San Martín, another team that has been consistent throughout the second half of the tournament and is in the Playoff fight.
