Due to cases of covid-19 in Aguada, the classic was canceled and Goes won it 20-1

The classic Aguada – Goes that was to be played this Thursday at 9:15 p.m. at the Peñarol Palace was canceled by the Uruguayan Basketball League (LUB) due to the outbreak of covid-19 cases at the aguatero campus.

This was confirmed by the LUB this Thursday at 1:00 p.m. In addition, the match was declared won by Goes 20-1, following what is established in the regulations for this type of situation in the framework of the pandemic.

“Given the medical report received from Club A. Aguada indicating that the players: Sebastián Izaguirre, Tyreek Duren, Lucas Silva, Marcos Mata, Federico Bavosi, Mathías Calfani and Mateo Amarillo gave positive results for Covid-19 added to the positives for Technical Staff (Daniel Seoane, Joel Pose, Mauricio Mendoza, Federico Izeta) and awaiting the PCR results of other players who were swabbed yesterday and who, due to high demand, are still pending at this time, the Table of the LUB resolves: cancel today’s Aguada vs Goes match and consider Club Goes as won by 20 to 1”, reported the LUB in its social networks.

Aguada was willing to play with up to eight players available, as he said this Wednesday to Referee the vice president of the club, Daniel Olivera.

“We are going to show up to play although We believe that it is a risk to play the match due to the sanitary conditions in which we are. I think it exposes the rival and the judges. If common sense prevails and for a health issue, the game should not be played, but until they tell us that we can’t show up and that they give us the match lost, the club’s will is to show up. With eight the same we presented ourselves”, he had manifested.

Finally. the LUB, due to the 11 cases and waiting for the results that are delayed, decided to cancel the match and give it to Goes for 20-1, as established by the regulations for these situations.

The match, the Uruguayan basketball classic, already had almost 1,000 tickets sold, so the clubs will be left without receiving one of the most important revenues of the season for that concept.
