The Spanish women's water polo team play for gold in Hungra. The team that trains Miki Oca, in a vibrant match, won the local team for a very tight 10-11 and will be measured in the final against Russia, which beat Holland 11-10, if necessary in the time added, after finish the first four quarters of the duel with a draw on the scoreboard (7-7). The same result that, precisely, signed the Magyars and the Spanish at the end of the first three very close quarters.

Laura Esther, the goalkeeper of the Spanish team, was once again one of the most prominent in a group that showed at all times a great defensive intensity against a Hungra who played with the whole flag in his favor, but that I saw again how Spain managed to condemn her again to defeat. In the scoring side, while, on the Spanish side, Anni Espar and Roser Tarrag shone, both with three goals, and Bea Ortiz, with two. Marta Bach, Judith Forca and Maica Garca, meanwhile, added one each.

That of Maica Garcaprecisely, it allowed Spain to score its maximum advantage on the scoreboard, a 7-11 that between Dora Leimeter and Rita Keszthelyi, captain and star of Hungra, was responsible for leading a 10-11 in the final seconds of the game. It was no use to the locals to look for the pica with a desperate climb of their goalkeeper, Gangl, relay of Kaso in the last minutes, to try to force the extension. In her last shot, Laura Ester will rise again as a whole wall to seal the pass at the end of Saturday.
