Peio Etxeberria will play his first Cuatro y Medio final after defeating Jon Ander Peña in the semifinal played at the Ogeta in Gasteiz, 22-15. The Navarrese has won a very hard-fought match in which the physical effort made in the first half has taken its toll on both protagonists, more so in the case of Peña.
Both Etxeberria and Peña, both good servers, have played their rival low. The team from Tolosa was the one that enjoyed the first notable advantage of the semi-final (3-1), but equality was imposed with highly disputed goals. Thus, the scoreboard has reflected ties at 4, 5, 9 and 10 points. At 10-11 Etxeberria took the lead on the scoreboard for the second time in the match after the initial 0-1, and upon returning from the first long break (10-12) it began to enjoy its first important advantages (10-15, 12-18).
The Navarrese and the Gipuzkoan have not done excessive damage with the serve, perhaps because the balls have not been as lively as on other occasions.
The physical demands of the beginning of the match have begun to weigh on both of them and from that 12-18 it has become clear that lThe comeback was practically a chimera. Thus, Peña had time to score just three goals before his rival reached poster 22.
With this result, Peio Etxeberria enters the grand final on November 19. It will be his first final in the ‘cage’ and he will play against the winner of the second semi-final they play. Jaka and Altuna this Sunday at the Astelena in Eibar.
