Limoges pulled off a nice coup in the Champions League by winning this Tuesday on the floor of the Catalans of Manresa (77-88). However, the match could not have started more badly for the Limougeauds with a 33-22 in favor of the locals at the end of the first quarter.
And then, the CSP machine gradually got going, allowing him to catch up and then move ahead in the middle of the third quarter (59-62). What followed was much calmer for the French club, which had to work hard, but thanks to the last three quarter-time wins, the match tipped in its favor.
Limoges validates its place in the play-offs
Limoges has a second consecutive success and is now sure to finish in the worst third of group F, synonymous with a ticket for the play-offs before the second group stage. The first place, which offers a direct ticket for this second group phase is occupied by Benfica (4 wins – 1 loss) and out of reach of the CSP.
