Firstly, apologies for my absence for the past couple of weeks; I was in Germany, hence missing the Cuatro y Medio final (more about that coming later) and then was rushed off my feet when I got back!
Secondly, we have some great pelota on ETB-Sat today in the form of a BBK Masters semi final between Aimar Olaizola and Oinatz Bengoetxea. Should be a cracker. Details below.
Saturday 19th December, Labrit, Pamplona
18:50 (CET) BERASALUZE VIII – PENAGARIKANO v URRUTIKOETXEA – BEGINO
19:50 (CET) OLAIZOLA II v BENGOETXEA VI (BBK Masters Semi Final)
The second BBK Masters semi final is on Sunday and is a rerun, in mano a mano format, of the Cuatro y Medio final, between Juan Martinez de Irujo and Sebastien Gonzalez. Gonzalez unexpectedly got the upper hand last week to take the txapela so Irujo will be hungry for revenge. The television schedule is as follows:
Sunday 20th December, Astelena, Eibar
16:55 (CET) BERASALUZE IX – BEROIZ v OLAZABAL – LASKURAIN
18:00 (CET) MARTINEZ DE IRUJO – GONZALEZ (BBK Masters Semi Final)
