La Fonteta decides the ticket for the Liga Endesa semifinals

03/06/2021

Valencia Basket returns to Fonteta to face the Liga Endesa quarterfinals game 3 against TD Systems Baskonia (Friday 4, 10:00 p.m., Fonteta, #Vamos) in a game in which Jaume Ponsarnau's men will once again be able to count on the support of their fans in the stands.

 

After coming back to finish taking the first point of the series and not being able to recover from a bad first half in the second, the taronja team now has a new opportunity to seek what would be its eighth presence in the Spanish League semifinals in the last ten seasons.

 

For this, the taronja squad will have to overcome the intense defense of Baskonia to regain its identity and its offensive efficiency against a rival our team has beaten in the three previous visits this season to the Fonteta. The general precedents in recent seasons are also favorable to the taronja team, although they are more balanced in the decisive games at home to reach the semifinals, where the taronja team has been victorious four times and has fallen three more.

 

Coach Jaume Ponsarnau has his full roster for this game, although the Catalan coach has revealed his intention to keep the same 12-men list for the first two games of this series.
