Drama in the Euroleague: Club de Campo gives in to Ghent and says goodbye to the final

The Spanish team falls in an exciting semi-final duel, where a frenetic second half left Club de Campo out of the fight for gold.

Club de Campo has suffered a tough defeat against Ghent in the first semi-final of the men's Euroleague hockey game, held in Bolduque, Netherlands. The final score of 2-3 reflects a clash full of emotions and unexpected turns, where the Spanish squad could not contain the Belgian reaction in the final stretch of the match.

The duel started strongly for the Spanish, who managed to overcome an initial goal by Sean Murray. The squad led by the Spanish coach arrived at half-time with a slight 2-1 advantage, thanks to a tactical display that allowed them to control the pace of the first half. However, everything changed in the second half when Ghent took control of the game.

The Belgian team, known for its ability to react, took advantage of two crucial moments in the 51st and 56th minutes to turn the score around. Alexander Hendrickx, one of the competition's top scorers, scored the equalizing goal, while Guillaume Hellin closed the comeback with a powerful shot that sealed his team's victory. With this, the Country Club was left out of the fight for the title of this edition of the Euroleague.

Despite the blow, the Spanish team has no time for regrets. Tomorrow, they will face the loser of the second semi-final in the morning session (11:30 CEST), who will face the teams from AH&BC Amsterdam and Kampong. This match will define who will be Ghent's rival in the grand final, scheduled for 16:00 CEST.

On the other hand, in the women's field, the Country Club could not repeat the success of other years and also lost in the semifinals against the host Hertogenbosch. Despite the defeat, the women's team will seek third place in an exciting match against Mannheimer (9:15 CEST), where they will have a new opportunity to demonstrate their quality in European competition.

A bitter day for Club de Campo fans, who, for the first time in a long time, will see how both the men's and women's teams are left out of the fight for the Euroleague finals. This result leaves fans with a bittersweet taste, but also with the hope that, in future editions, the team can reach the top again.
