On its floor, Angers did not do well against another French club, Flammes Carolo this Wednesday as part of the fourth day of Eurocoupe (84-63). The two teams were almost equal for two quarters, before the Angevines carried a big acceleration and won the last two periods (25-17 and 24-10), to clinch a third victory in four met. Flammes Carolo and Angers are now tied at the top of Group L with 7 points.
Lattes Montpellier also did not shake at home to overcome the Czechs of Zabiny Brno (84-72). Largely in the lead at the break (54-30), the Héraultaises slightly lowered their foot at the end, allowing their opponents to reduce the gap. But the Montpellier women pocket a fourth success in as many meetings and point to the top of group K.
Asvel was hot
Still in group K, Asvel got very scared on the floor of the Spaniards of Gipuzkoa. The two teams went blow for blow throughout the match to end regulation time in perfect equality (61-61). It was therefore in the extension that the narrow victory of the Villeurbannaises took shape, they won by a very small point (71-70), and moved into second place.
Fifth and last French club in the running this Wednesday evening, Roche Vendée lost on the floor of the Italians of Sassari (77-65). Even if they reacted well in the second quarter, to come back to four points behind their opponents, the Vendéennes suffered the law of the Transalpines after the break to concede a third defeat in four games. They are last in Group J, where Villeneuve d’Ascq also plays, who travels to London on Thursday.
