The Costa del Sol team displayed an excellent start, controlling the offensive pace and making it difficult for the Pyrenean players to score. An initial 12-2 run in the first five minutes, led by Madison Conner and Sika Kone, set the tone. Despite a comeback from Cadí La Seu, which allowed them to go into halftime with a six-point lead (32-38), the Estepona team showed its fighting spirit.
After the break, the game took a dramatic turn. The Pineda crowd energized the players, who delivered a devastating 32-8 run in the third quarter. Players like Claudia Contell, Sika Kone, Madison Conner, and Lucía Rodríguez were key to this comeback, leaving the score at 66-46 at the start of the final period and bringing mathematical salvation within reach.
Despite Cadí La Seu's efforts to get back into the game, with an initial five points from Marta Morales, CAB Estepona's superiority was undeniable. Madison Conner, with 30 points and 8 of 12 from three-point range, was the top scorer, receiving unanimous applause from the public. Also noteworthy was the participation of Ari Ruiz, a youth player from the club, who became the first CAB Estepona player to debut in the LF Endesa before turning 18, a historic milestone for the entity. The final score of 90-66 confirms the team's permanence with two regular season games remaining.
The Costa del Sol team once again made a very good start, setting the pace they wanted in attack and not allowing the Pyrenean players to score.
