Heroic Thursday at the end of the match against Zalgiris Kaunas in the Euroleague (91-88), Asvel has already fallen back into its ways. At the end of the 10th day of Betclic Élite, Limoges inflicted his first defeat in the Championship on Gianmarco Pozzecco on the Villeurbanne bench (79-68). Monaco beaten in Nancy on Saturday, the Rhone residents had the opportunity to get within two lengths of the leader. They are now seventh with the same record as the CSP and Nanterre.
“I don’t understand why we have drops in intensity like that during matches. We had three days after the Euroleague, there is no excuse,” said Joffrey Lauvergne at Skweek. The interior and his teammates lost their footing in the second half. Led by its captain Nicolas Lang (13 points, 5 of 9 shooting), Limoges found skill, regained the advantage (55-52, 30th) and passed a decisive 10-2 to start the last quarter .
Chassang and Nenadic decisive
A “run” concluded by Alexandre Chassang (14 points, 8 rebounds), first with a three-point arrow for a strong basket under the circle after snatching three offensive rebounds (65-54, 34th). Paris Lee delayed the deadline for Asvel with two three-point baskets, but Nando De Colo’s return to play was not enough (6 points, 3 of 10 shooting). Nemanja Nenadic (12 points) ended the suspense first with a winning basket on the head of Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot (72-62, 37th) then with a basket plus the foul (77-66, 38th).
Asvel will try to bounce back on Friday in the Euroleague on the floor of Monaco, a team against which the Rhone residents have suffered six consecutive defeats, in all competitions, since the epic match 5 which concluded the final of the 2022 Championship.
