Fiba BCL: the analysis of Igokea-Pallacanestro Trieste

Very complicated start of the match for the Trieste team who suffered a heavy blow in the second part of the first quarter partial of 19 to 4suffering considerably from the impact of the Bosnian guards. In the second period the script does not change, the Igokea continues to give its own rhythm to the match, showing off all the defensive difficulties of the team Gonzalez. The home team at half-time leads by 16 points. Upon returning to the field the pace slows down considerably. Trieste try to get back into the game by arriving up to -10 but it is too discontinuous and so the Bosnians lead the gap again. In the last quarter the boys of Stefanovic they manage what has been built, bringing home success with the score of 91 to 76.

Another dull performance, above all, in the defensive half of the field for the Trieste players who paid the price 55 points conceded to opponents in the first two periods. The Giulians are too few continuously in attack to play on equal terms with the Bosnians, revealing many difficulties in shooting from outside as demonstrated by the 30% in three-point shooting, after failing the first 9 attempts. One more opaque test for Juan Toscano-Andersonlimited to only 4 points in 17 minutes of play he was released due to five fouls committed. For Trieste the better it is Sissoko which comes close to double double with 17 points and 9 rebounds. The defeat in Bosnia puts Trieste with their backs against the wall, the boys of Gonzalez they are called to reverse course in the second round so as not to have to say goodbye to the Champions with long advance.
