Spain to the men's 4x400 relay final, the girls eliminated

Belgrade, 20 Mar The Spanish team formed by Bruno Hortelano, Iñaki Cañal, Manuel Guijarro and Bernat Erta have qualified for the 4x400 relay final of the World Indoor Championships by winning the second series with a time of 3:06 .98, the best of the first round. In the final there was only the first of each race and three more times. Hortelano, in the first post, took command of the race and the Spanish team held the position until the end, with Cañal, Guijarro and Erta, who resisted the harsh harassment of the last Czech reliever. “I think we can do very well in the final, this afternoon we all have to want to dream, and above all to believe in the work we have done. This team can bring many joys,” said Guijarro. This afternoon, at 19.40, the Spanish men's relay will fight for medals in a final that will not be the United States, the eleven-time champion. The injury of his last reliever, Isaiah Harris, who made the last 100 practically lame, left him out with a mark of 3:09 .11. The Spanish women's team, consisting of Sara Gallego, Geena Stephens, Carmen Avilés and Laura Bueno, had no choice. He was fifth and last in his series with 3:34 .92, the second best Spanish brand in history. CHIEF sn/jad
