Asvel, Villeneuve-d’Ascq and Basket Landes lost at home to Valence, Mersin and Polkowice.
The three French clubs involved in the women’s basketball Euroleague lost again on Wednesday, during the 3rd day: Asvel, Villeneuve-d’Ascq and Basket Landes fell at home, respectively against Valence (70-61), Mersin (69-60) and Polkowice (81-75). They have only one success in six matches, won by the Northerners in the opening against the Hungarians of Györ (93-92 AD).
They suffered on Wednesday the law of the Turks of Mersin, vice-champions of Europe, who took off in the first quarter (27-13). Villeneuve-d’Ascq (5th) is one success behind the leading quartet of Pool B, of which the Landaises occupy 8th and last place after their setback against the Poles. The top four qualify for the quarter-finals. In Pool A, Asvel, still deprived of Marine Johannès (WNBA) and Gabby Williams (convalescent), is also two wins behind fourth place after experiencing a terrible air gap in the second quarter ( 6-20).
