SAN ROQUE, Saturday, August 10 

MB Polo and ATL Marine & Energy faced off this Saturday aiming
for securing the top spot in Zone 2 of the High Goal Copa de Plata Terralpa, even though both
teams were already qualified for the semifinals. To sum up, the final result would determine who
would face Dubai or La Dolfina Dos Lunas in the following stage.

It was a very attractive game, in front of a large crowd that enjoyed not only a
top-level sporting event but also splendid weather and an incredible afternoon at Ayala Sede Los
Pinos. Both teams came into the match on winning streaks, and the outlook was evenly matched.

In the end, it was the youngest player on the field, 14-year-old Rufino Laulhé, who decided the game
in favor of MB Polo after an unforgettable run. As a result, MB Polo will face La Dolfina Dos Lunas in
the semifinals on Wednesday, while ATL Marine & Energy will go up against Dubai.

There was also action in the Low Goal category, where wins by La Capilla and Calatagan secured
them spots in the semifinals, where they will face 1896 Polo and Polo Valley, respectively.
The Copa de Plata Terralpa, second leg of the 53rd Torneo Internacional de Polo Andalucía, will
