Costa del Voley Celebrates Victory Over Pinto
The players and coaches of Costa del Voley are celebrating their triumph over Pinto. After a slump of four consecutive losses, Marbella’s Costa del Voley managed to secure their second consecutive victory this matchday against Grupo Egido Pinto. They had to wait until the fifth set to overcome the Madrid team (3-2), but they gained two important points that keep Chavo’s squad in the sixth position of Superliga 2.
Intense Match Between Costa del Voley and Grupo Egido Pinto
An intense match was played between Costa del Voley and Grupo Egido Pinto at the Antonio Serrano Lima pavilion in Marbella. The match was very close and was decided in sudden death for the locals. The final score was 25-18, 20-25, 19-25, 25-23, and 15-12, with a great comeback from Marbella after being down 1-2.
Costa del Voley’s Strong Start and Comeback
In the first set, Costa del Voley came out very strong, especially in blocking and defense, which allowed them to take an early lead and manage the advantage until the end. In the second and third sets, the Madrid team managed to hurt Chavo’s boys, especially from the serve, with several good streaks that were enough to turn the score around and go 1-2 up.
Close Fourth Set and Turnaround in Fifth Set
The fourth set was one of the most evenly matched until the end, with a very combative Costa that did not give up a ball and tipped the set in their favor. The fifth set started badly for the locals, who went 0-3 down, forcing Marbella’s technical team to call an early timeout. But that’s when the match changed, as the players showed their grit and turned the score around to even go three points up, which ultimately served them to win.
Top Scorers and Upcoming Match
Finally, the team achieves a victory after a tie break, something that had been eluding them in the previous three. The top scorers were Raúl Muñoz and Joan Durán, with 21 points each, and Iván Corrales, with 19 points. Next week, Costa del Voley will play at home again, this time to host Benidorm, third in the standings, on Saturday at 6:00 p.m.
