Live Pelota, 12th-14th March: Barriola’s Comeback and Pairs Semis

Friday 12th March, Leitza

22:20 (CET) BERASALUZE IX – L. GALARZA v APEZETXEA – LARRINAGA

23:25 (CET) RETEGI BI – BARRIOLA v IDOATE – EULATE

Abel Barriola returns to competition at his home fronton after nearly a year out with a knee ligament injury. He has been sorely missed and the local fans should give him a rousing welcome. He and Retegi Bi take on last week’s winning Aspe debutante, Idoate, and the vastly experienced Eulate.

Saturday 13th March, Pamplona

17:55 (CET) MARTINEZ DE IRUJO – BEROIZ v TITIN III – PASCUAL Pairs Championship Semi Finals

In the first of the Pairs Semis this weekend, last week’s two losing couples play each other. For the loser it will likely be curtains, meaning this is sure to be an encounter full of passion, especially given the presence of Irujo and Titin in direct conflict.

Sunday 14th March, Eibar

17:00 (CET) RETEGI BI – MERINO v IDOATE – ARRUTI

18:10 (CET) GONZALEZ – LASKURAIN v XALA – ZUBIETA Pairs Championship Semi Finals

In Eibar, last week’s winning pairs compete to consolidate their positions in the semi final league. This is an evenly matched encounter and the battle between the two in-form defenders, Laskurain and Zubieta, promises much.
