The team led by Toni Larramona dominated the match from the start, but the lead widened significantly at the beginning of the third quarter thanks to a “galactic” performance by point guard Iker Fernández, who hails from Vilafranca. Fernández finished the game with 23 points and a 29 valuation score. The home team maintained the pace, closing the scoreboard with a 44-point difference.
After a first quarter that ended 24-14, featuring penetrations and three-pointers from Stefanuto, Buscail, Loras, and captain David Fernàndez, the CBT continued to extend their advantage. Debutant Day Hall made his presence felt in the second period with baskets and assists, leading the score to 51-35 at halftime, despite some controversial referee decisions at El Serrallo.
The second half began with a recital by Iker Fernández, who led the blue attack, contributing to definitively breaking the game with a 70-41 score.
The negative point of the day was the injury sustained by Dani Stefanuto, a key offensive player, who had to leave the court and is awaiting medical evaluation. Nevertheless, the final minutes allowed for game time for Tomás Kohan, returning after a wrist injury, and confirmed the potential of Day Hall and Adri Duch.
