Ampo Ordizia, King‘s Rugby Cup champion

Ampo Ordizia Rugby has won the King‘s Cup by beating Cetransa El Salvador 30-27 in a game in the Balastera Stadium in Palencia in which neither team gave a disappointing performance during the final.

Centransa El Salvador started very strongly and in only 20 minutes already dominated the scoreboard by 21-3. Jorge Molina surprised Ordizia with two tries although it could still have increased its advantage if two tries hadn’t failed.

Freeman’s moment came in the second half in a game with Goia. With the scoreboard at 24-20 and 15 minutes left to play, Lolotonga capped a big comeback allowing Ampo Ordizia to proclaim itself King’s Cup champion, thus achieving its first national title in the top league.
