The men's reserve team of KH-7 BMG is just one victory away from being crowned champions of Group D of the First State League handball, with their first opportunity this Saturday in the match against Bordils.

The team led by Sergio Pozo will face a decisive match this Saturday on Bordils' court. A victory would not only secure them the league title but also direct access to the promotion playoffs, the main objective they had set for this season.

"I am very happy with the season we are having so far. In the first round, we had a slump of about three or four games, but we overcame it and now we are having a great second round."

Sergio Pozo · KH-7 BMG Coach
Pozo highlighted the difficulty of the upcoming match, as Bordils is a direct rival for both the league and the promotion playoffs. According to the coach, a defeat for Bordils could mean losing all their title chances.
With three matchdays remaining in the competition, and only six points at stake, KH-7 BMG leads the standings with 45 points. They maintain a five-point advantage over the second and third-placed teams, La Roca and Bordils, respectively. The coach is confident in his team's victory and in La Roca's win against Banyoles, the second-to-last placed team.

"We will only be champions this matchday if we win, because I am convinced that La Roca will win at home against Banyoles, the second-to-last placed team. Win the points as soon as possible to celebrate the championship, you never know."

Sergio Pozo · KH-7 BMG Coach
The reserve team's coaching staff recalls that Bordils is a very demanding opponent. In fact, in the first-round match played at the Palau d'Esports, KH-7 BMG suffered a 26-31 defeat. The team will travel to Bordils with the hope of closing out the league and securing their spot in the promotion playoffs.
