Instituto San Martín beat him again and was one step away from the final

In the stadium Angel Sandrin and for Game 2 of the semifinals of The National Basketball League, Institute won by 90-84 a San Martin and now he’s fronting for 2-0 in the series.

La Gloria started off on the wrong foot and lost the first quarter 26-18. In the second period, he was 14 points down on the scoreboard (30-44), but began to raise his head with a 7-0 run before going into the break.

In the third quarter, which they dominated 29-19, the locals let go and showed all their hierarchy to take the lead. And in the last period, apart from the fact that the game was only resolved at the last minute, he did not suffer major shocks to stay with the victory.

In addition, the Cordoba team scored 16 of the 18 free throws they took, while the visit ended with just two conversions from the line of sighs.
