A clear and convincing victory
The Igualada Femení Grupo Guzmán won an impressive victory against CH Mataró, with a forceful 1-5, in a new day of the Catalan National League of Roller Hockey. The Igualada players showed exceptional performance, especially in the first minutes, where they unfolded a fast and dynamic game.
The team and their evolution
Directed by Carles Piernas, this young team has shown a constant progression, without limits to the sight. The Portuguese Inés Gaiveu emphasized in the game, adapting quickly to the team and significantly contributing to the result, next to Carla Claramunt, who also scored two goals.
Tribute to a club figure
Before the start of the game, the fans of the Mataró pavilion paid an emotional tribute to Ricardo Solano, who was coach of the Igualada during the season 21-22. Solano, who left us suddenly at the age of 47, was a respected figure in the world of hockey, dedicated to the training of young talents in various clubs in his area.
A start -up start
The beginning of the game was a real hurricane for the players of the Mataró. In just two minutes, Igualada created five goal opportunities, transforming two of them. Carla Claramunt opened the tin in a counterattack, followed shortly after by a Gaiveu goal that increased the pressure on the locals.
Key moment and game control
With the dominance of the game in favor of the Anoienques, the Mataró players struggled to regain control, but the Argentine goalkeeper Vicky Guzzo was crucial, making stops that kept the goal at zero. As the first half progressed, the intensity of the Igualada translated into more goals, with a third goal by Judit Llobet, which further increased the difference.
Second part and local reaction
The second half began with a Mataró determined to reverse the situation, although the lack of coordination became apparent. As the minutes passed, Igualada regained its dominant position. Seven minutes from the end, Thaïs Pérez managed to score for the locals, although this did not alter the final result.
An intelligent end
The end of the game was marked by several blue cards for the players of the Mataró, a reflection of the intensity of the game. Carla Claramunt closed the score with a direct free kick, leaving the end result in a 1-5 that reflects the superiority of the Igualada throughout the game.
Looking to the future
With this triumph, the Igualada Femení Grupo Guzmán accumulates 36 points, keeping the seventh position in the standings. Only two points in Girona CH, the next game against CP Manlleu, which is currently fourth, promises to be an exciting challenge. The Igualadines expect to repeat the excellent performance of the first round, where they won 0-4.
