Present in the same Group I made up of four teams, Strasbourg and Cholet did not manage to finish among the first two to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Opposed this Tuesday to the Turks of Tofas, the Strasbourg residents were forced to win the match with a 23-point lead to qualify. The SIG was not unworthy and won in style (78-65) in particular thanks to 17 points from Paul Lacombe but did not manage to make up for their defeat in the match in Turkey.
The Choletais had to beat the Spaniards of Unicaja, 2nd in their Championship. This quickly proved mission impossible for Laurent Vila’s men, who were quickly led. Despite Neal Sako’s 17 points and 9 rebounds, Cholet was finally outclassed this Tuesday (85-70). Tied on points with Tofas and Strasbourg, the Turks take second place thanks to the difference in points in the confrontations (+10 on the two French clubs).
