This training week went as normal, but we had two athletes who got injured (one in the first training session of the week and the other the day before the game).
The injury to the last player caused some concern as he is important in our defense, and we had a game against the 2nd placed team.
Luckily, he managed to play.
The game was very competitive, in the first 20 minutes neither team managed to take the lead on the scoreboard as both managed to carry out their attacks successfully.
The goalkeepers of both teams were unable to make a difference in the game.
From the 20th minute onwards our goalkeeper started to have success and stop some of the opponent's shots which meant we reached half-time winning 14–11.
In the second half, our team managed to manage this advantage with the help of our goalkeeper, who made several saves on shots from 6 meters.
The important thing was the victory, but it was clear that our team didn't play a brilliant game or anything like that compared to other games.
Leaderboard
This week's victory put us alone in first place in our zone with a 2 point advantage.
However, this difference is very small and it only takes one slip for us to be tied on points again.
This week we will play against Estarreja AC (3rd place) which was the only team that has made us lose points so far.
It has everything to be a competitive game.
