Welcome beat Auriblanco 97-77 and added his fifth victory in a row in the DTA, which allows him to remain the only leader. Matías De Gouveia, who was key in the victory of the “W”, spoke with Basketball Total.
About the match, he said: “The first half was very difficult. We adjusted badly on the mark and they scored with very high percentages. The second half we went out to distribute the ball better, we defended a little harder and took good shots. “Q” (Newsome) he weighed a lot below the rim and they couldn’t defend him”.
Matías finished the game with 22 points (with 7/10 in triples): “At first I had open shots left and I took them. Later, by playing so many minutes, it is easier to keep finding the shots. The team trusted me, passed it on to me, and luckily the shots entered”, He commented.
On the start of the tournament for Welcome, as well as the objectives in this DTA, he said: “We have the responsibility of the championship and promotion, but we go game by game. Until now, all the matches were difficult. One on extension, another on the hour … There are many talented players in Third, and also all the courts are difficult. All the games will be like this”. In addition, he added: “In the difficult moments of the game there are several players who have experience and can assume. We are very far from the goal and we have to work a lot, because what matters in this championship is how you finish”.
Finally, De Gouveia left a message for the Welcome fans: “The suspension of the partiality is about to end, so I want to ask you to accompany, and to be calm. We have to take Welcome to the place where it belongs, and that is a task for both the players and the fans. We must try to take care of ourselves. Let’s hope everything goes smoothly”.
