Sandá Club Bàsquet L'Hospitalet is set to face a pivotal match against CB Valls this Saturday at 18:15 at the Poliesportiu del Centre - Marcel·lí Maneja. The team is under pressure to secure a victory to prevent a second consecutive defeat following last week's loss to CB Igualada.
The recent defeat has prompted the team to engage in self-reflection, with a key takeaway being the need to improve their defensive strength. Coach Òscar Navarro emphasised that defensive solidity must be the foundation of their game, allowing them to counter-attack effectively and seize offensive opportunities. He stated, “The team must understand that we need to focus on defence to run, not the other way around. We cannot prioritise attacking before defending. I believe the team is starting to understand this.”
With this lesson learned, Sandá CB L'Hospitalet aims to step up in front of their home crowd. The clear objective is to secure home victories and regain confidence. However, they will face a versatile CB Valls, which will demand the best performance from the home side. To overcome the Alt Camp team and return to winning ways, the riberencs must demonstrate greater defensive strength and maintain concentration throughout the match.
