Jose Justicia and Jesus Noguera make up Spanish team at World Cup of Darts
PDCWednesday, 22 May 2024 at 10:00
The Spanish team for the 2024 World Cup of Darts has been confirmed. Jesús Noguera and José Justicia will represent their country after they managed to get through the Spanish qualifying tournament held last weekend.
Because there are no longer and Spaniards on the PDC Pro Tour, there were no permanent designation spots. Dozens of Spanish darters had the chance to compete at a major tournament for their country through a qualifying tournament. But it was the established Spanish names who managed to make it to the final stage of the qualifier.
The first final was one between former World Cup participants Jose Justicia and Toni Alcinas. Justicia managed to win the duel 4-3. The other final was also decided in a deciding leg. Jesus Noguera secured a spot on the Spanish team by beating Angel Pitu 4-3.
For Justicia, it will be his fourth consecutive participation in the World Cup of Darts. The Joker has not yet been very successful for his country. In 2021 he already formed a team with Noguera, but then they lost 5-4 to South Africa. In the past two years, Justicia had Tony Martinez as a partner. Together they went down immediately in 2022 against host Germany (5-4). Due to the new format, Spain came into action twice during the pool phase in 2023. They lost 4-2 to South Africa, leaving the Spaniards nothing to gain from the 4-2 victory over Iceland.
The 2024 World Cup of Darts is scheduled for June 27-30 in Frankfurt. Welsh duo Gerwyn Price and Jonny Clayton are the defending champions at the World Cup of Darts.

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
UndartedWaters19-11-2024 - Luke Littler played incredible darts yesterday in the semi-final and the final, heralding a new era of darts (along with some of the other brilliant young players who are emerging). And yet, at Luke's celebration feast, de Decker's ghost is Banquo to Littler's Macbeth, mournfully looking on.UndartedWaters18-11-2024
- Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
