Surne Bilbao starts the second phase of the tournament by winning the Sporting (94-79)
The team led by Jaume Ponsarnau has suffered in several stages of the match, but has almost always been ahead of the scoreboard with a major victory.
Surne Bilbao has started firmly in the second phase of the Europa FIBA Cup by defeating the Portuguese Sporting Club in Miribilla (94-79), the current champion of that tournament, who was also the best team in the first phase.
Surn closed the defensive rebound at the beginning of the first quarter, but with the passing of the minutes the Portuguese team has become stronger under the hoops, matching the competition. The men in black have reached ten points of advantage, but in the end the difference has almost disappeared, remaining at three points (26-23).
As soon as the second quarter began, the Sporting matched the match. However, the Jaume Ponsarnau managed to improve their defense and opened up an 11-point lead before the break (49-38). Jaworski and Hilliard led the billiards with 10 and 8 points respectively, while Amarante (9 points) was the main threat of the Portuguese in the first half.
After the break, the men in black have started the second half well and even increased the rent, but in the last half of the third quarter they have made bad decisions in attack and in defense they have relaxed, and the Amarante has taken advantage of that opportunity to bring his team closer to the scoreboard. In any case, Ponsarnau has stopped the match with a hollow and cleared the Biscayan ideas to maintain the rent at the end of the quarter (74-63).
In the last quarter, the game script has barely changed, even though the Portuguese team has never given up. Surn has had to work to the end, but has not lowered its level and has managed to win the game easily.
