It was a normal week where we trained and prepared for the most anticipated game of this round, as it would pit the only two teams that had not yet lost points in this Final Phase against each other.
The game was quite close.
In the first half, neither team managed to get ahead in the market in a clear way, ending in an 11-all draw.
The second half was also close, but in the final part of the game we made several technical errors in the attack which allowed CD Feirense to take the lead in the last 5 minutes.
We were unable to turn the situation around and ended up having our first defeat of this phase by 25-26.
Leaderboard
In terms of classification, we are currently in 3rd place, which leaves us out of the promotion spot.
However, this week we will have a game against the 2nd placed team and if we win we will return to the promotion places.
Currently, CD Feirense is isolated in 1st place with a 2-point advantage over the 2nd and 3rd placed teams.
One thing we can be sure of is that in this phase there will be no easy games or games that will be resolved in the first part of the game as happened in some games in the previous phase.
