End of the promotion phase Endesa Women’s League. CAB Estepona competes for the last place against Joventut Badalona and finally the victory goes to the Catalan team (55-64). La Penya celebrates that next season it will have its first two teams in the elite, both the men’s team in the Endesa League and the women’s team in the LF Endesa. And then the official account of the CAB Estepona publishes (or tweets, as they used to say) a controversial post that tarnishes what the entire tie has been like. A comment on X that soon went viral and, a few hours later, received a response from Joventut Badalona himself.

The reality is that Estepona was able to take that last place to accompany Osés Construction Ardoi of Navarra to the highest national category. However, La Penya managed to turn the game around despite losing eleven points in the final stretch. A 20-0 run for the Badalona team meant that the victory (and promotion) went to Badalona. And that’s where the controversy began.

“There are times when your rival is better and there are times when, without being better, the circumstances arise not to win. Today, we did not achieve promotion to #LFEndesa, but we have won much more,” read the post published by Estepona, along with a photo of the final scoreboard that read 55-64. A message that seemed to suggest that The result had not been in accordance with the match.

That post It took place at almost twenty to eight in the afternoon. And then Penya did not speak out. Joventut Badalona only published positive and celebratory messages for the promotion they had just achieved until three hours later, when Estepona’s publication was already circulating on the different networks and groups, they decided to respond.

“5 minutes without scoring and 0-20 to close the game. It is as important to know how to win as it is to know how to lose. “Congratulations on the season!” read the post, quoting the Estepona publication. A response that has also circulated like wildfire in the face of what happened and that has tried to settle the controversy with a sports argument.
