Belén Arrojo does not return to Spain with Lointek Gernika waiting for a second negative PCR

MADRID, 5 One. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Lointek Gernika captain, Belén Arrojo, has not yet been able to return to Spain from Turkey, where her team played a chaotic second leg of the women’s Eurocup playoff, waiting to test negative in a second PCR, although it is accompanied by her coach, Mario López.

“Mario López has stayed with Belén Arrojo in Turkey until it receives the second negative result in the PCR carried out last night. The rest of the expedition is already on the return trip,” said Lointek on its official Twitter profile. ‘.

The whole of the Women’s League lived a real nightmare in this trip to Turkey where they were the victim of a trap that also ended with their European elimination against CBK Mersin, who prevailed in the second leg by 69-40 to wipe out the 24 points of disadvantage that had been brought from the Basque Country.

This match had to be postponed at the time to this Tuesday due to the number of positive cases in the Biscayan team, which returned to training when all the affected people tested negative in the antigen test as in the tests before traveling to Turkey.

However, as the player Rosó Buch reported on social media, the Turkish team sued FIBA ​​that they wanted to do a PCR upon arrival and that the agency accepted. “We accept to do it in Bilbao or even in Istanbul. Negative answer. They only allow us to play if they do it to us in Adana,” he said.

In any case, the entire expedition decided to do a PCR “at the Istanbul airport” because they already doubted “the intentions” of the rival. “All negative. All good. We arrived in Adana and they are waiting for us,” said Buch, who added a video with the images of the moment of the new PCR.

Later, hours before playing the game, they were told that Belén Arrojo “is positive.” “Surprise! We react quickly and he goes to the hospital to do another PCR. He cannot play without result. But it does not come until we are having dinner, it is negative. Surprise! They have taken Belén from us,” he stressed with irony.

“I could talk about the refereeing and the conditions in which we have played, but I think that it has already been seen and playing with health is overdoing it. Belén we love you! I am very proud of my team and of how we have fought against a great team” , sentenced the Catalan.

In addition to this situation, the Mersin decided to change its usual pavilion to put a smaller one and as it could be seen in images through social networks, it prepared a ‘hellish’ environment with sirens and a lot of noise in each Lointek attack. To conclude, once the pass was achieved, CBK Mersin congratulated the Spanish team with irony through social networks.

For her part, Belén Arrojo said “she is physically well, although emotionally depressed.” “I never thought that certain limits could be exceeded in a sport as beautiful as basketball, but today it happened in Turkey, with my teammates and with me. Frustration, helplessness, anger and despair. Congratulations to today’s winners, without a doubt. they will go very far, “he wrote on his official Twitter account.
