Unicaja took the victory of the Palau by 59-81 with a basketball recital that will prolong the series one more. Incontestable match of Ibon Navarro who forgot Tuesday's wounds in Carpena to force a third game with a national classic aroma. Balceowski and Kendrick Perry, with more than twenty assessment both, led to a unicaja that was much higher and that sentenced the game in the third quarter.
The first quarter left a close start with the two teams studying their attitudes and distributing blows. Barreiro was in charge of drying Anderson, the headache in the carpena party. Perry pulled the local car with 11 of the first 14 points of his team. The Unicaja ran and was comfortable to a Barcelona that went and went in terms of connections. The clash began to break with a 2-12 partial for the boxers who took the cat to the water in the first ten minutes with 17-26 of the first quarter.

Barcelona was not good for the second quarter. Those of Peñarroya began to show symptoms of severe problems in attack. Unicaja rose the level in defense and the Barca shots were always dotted. Neither the exterior nor the interior circulated well and the Unicaja took advantage of that to continue marking the distances in the electronic. A couple of actions from Parra approached Barça, but Unicaja was able to control their emotions and go to rest winning 35-44.
The gap opens
After the rest time, the Andalusian team gave the first notice of rupture with a partial of 6-0, taking advantage of the offensive block of a completely miscarired Barça from the perimeter, 0 of 5 in triples in a third quarter that dynamited the match. The minutes passed and Barcelona did not find the holes. Based on free throws and a triple distant from Carter, the Malaga expanded the gap to a maximum difference of twenty points, (45-65).
Pinter tried to pull the car in the Catalan attack, but he lacked accompaniment. Balceowski was a teeth pain. The Palau came to whistle his in some of the actions of the pivot box. Aware of the situation and with a depleted rotation, Peñarroya lowered her arms and gave the youth of Raúl Villar, Dani González and Sayon Keita, already thinking about the crucial duel on Sunday. The young people closed the match, which ended with a forceful 59-81 and will force a third game to decide the ticket to the semifinals this Sunday in Carpena.
