It was a highly anticipated day due to the level of balance that had been seen in the previous matches and it really was like that. Only Telecable Gijon reacted strongly after the tie in Italy. Natasha Lee’s girls are the first to qualify for the quarter-finals after the victory against Roller Matera 8-3 (two goals for Roces, Ferreira, Almeida). The last 100 minutes will be needed to decide the other seven qualifiers. Starting from Group D, where Astro Stuart Massama and Vordemwald finished the match with a 2-2 draw, where Beatriz Alves’ two goals were answered by goals from the Swiss national team athletes Moor and Ruegger. Qualification is closer for the Portuguese while in Group A, Vila-Sana Coop d’ivars re-open everything in the standing by winning on the Esneca Fraga rink, the leader. Two goals from the Spanish national team Victoria Porta which now puts all three teams back in the game. Coruña and Martinelia Manlleu are also very close to qualifying: they are now both on six points, six more than the last Coutras. If the Galicians won in Manlleu, in La Coruña the Catalans won 2-1 thanks to goals from Comas and Angrill. Appointment on February 24th for what seems to all intents and purposes to be the decisive day for access to the quarterfinals.
