Olympic de La Banda hosts Platense in Vicente Rosales in the second match of the quarterfinals series. El Negro took the 2-0 matchpoint in the matchup for a place in the semifinals. El Calamar stayed close and it wasn’t a match like the previous one where Gatti’s men won a big advantage.
Black is 2-0
The All Black match against Vicente Rosales. Gatti’s team once again dominated from start to finish, but this time it was no longer calm, as Platense came close to making a run. El Calamar is not accompanied by effectiveness and this is mainly thanks to the excellent defense of Olympic. In the second quarter, Marrón’s coach, Alejandro ‘el Cholo’ Vázquez, was sent off after an exchange of words with one of the referee’s shortlist judges. The locals were not as effective as in the previous match, but they were able to pull off. And led by Jony Machuca (19 points, 3 rebounds), Olimpico led by nine points at halftime.
The second half was a similar story, but the locals managed to overcome the double-digit distance barrier in Platense. Eric Flor (18 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists) added the most to the visit, but he wasn’t enough. Olimpico has four players with more than ten units converted, Patricio Tabarez with 17, Nico Romano with 16, Alex Negrete with 13 and Penka Aguirre with 11. In addition, Romano’s son who Camilo, had his debut, who did not hesitate to shoot at. his two minutes on the court. Gatti’s team reached a 23 point difference over Calamar and took the second game by 16.
How does the series continue?
The third crossing will be at Calamar’s home in Buenos Aires, which will have the possibility of having a discount at its stadium, the Ciudad de Vicente López, where it has built strength throughout the season. However, Olimpico won by a good margin in both matches, but during the regular season, Platense walked away from the matchup. This creates a big unknown for the third game, so we’ll have to wait until Friday to find out if we have a semifinalist or a fourth game.
