While we wait for that grand final, on Friday 4, on field 1 in Pilar, the Drysdale Subsidiary Cup was defined, in which the teams of La Ensenada Dietrich vs. Cría La Dolfina faced each other.
It was a victory for the first of those named by 15 to 11 and thus kept the title, despite losing Juanma Zubía to injury at the beginning of the second chukkar.
The “pibes” of La Ensenada had a fantastic start and with the help of their driver, Juamaa Zubía -in the 9 minutes he was on the field he broke it-, they took a huge advantage of eight goals almost at the end of the second period. From there the game became more fought, but Cría La Dolfina (except in the fifth chukker, in which they showed their best side and managed to win the partial 4-0) could never get within reach on the scoreboard. Thus, with a goal distributed among its members and a great game by Alfredo Bigatti, the trophy was in the hands of the team from La Ensenada.
