On field 1 in Palermo, La Dolfina Saudi beat La Ensenada Dietrich 20-7, remains undefeated in the tournament and will play the definition of Zone B against Ellerstina UAE Yellow Rose next Sunday 1/12.
In addition, it complicated the prequalification to the Triple Crown 2025 for his rival, who will now play a “final” against La Zeta Kazak to maintain his place in the next season.
Despite the small difference in the handicap of both teams, the team led by Cañuelas beat La Ensenada with enormous authority, which does not raise its head and is still without a win in the Argentine Open. With a great game from Uruguay’s Pelón Stirling and Adolfito Cambiaso, they were 13 goals ahead of their opponents, who went three full chukkers without scoring and only scored three goals from the field in eight chukkers. Next Sunday, both teams will play a final, one to reach the final and the other to avoid the qualifying tournament in 2025.
