He Surne Bilbao Basket visit this Wednesday to Niners Chemnitz on their court with a glimmer of hope to overcome the 25 points by which the German team beat them in the first leg in Miribilla, a 73-98 that left them practically eliminated at the gates of the final of the FIBA Europe Cup. The match will begin at 7:00 p.m. and will be broadcast live by ETB4 and eitb.eus.

Was a tremendous setback for the ‘men in black’ that defeat last Wednesday at the Bilbao Arena, since they had come into the match full of confidence after three quality victories in a row in front of their fans – against Legia Warsaw, Joventut and Baskonia – and in the 17th minute of the game they even dreamed of solving the semi-final in the first leg and reach the second European final in its history.

When those of Jaume Ponsarnau They were 14 up on the scoreboard (43-29), no one could imagine a collapse like the one that the Biscayan team later suffered, which conceded a subsequent 30-69 in 22 and a half minutes that almost made the return unnecessary.

Because thinking about a comeback is a chimera even for a team that knew how to overcome such a defeat by winning just three days later with authority a complex clash in Lugo against a Breogan River beset by decline.

Surne Bilbao wants to rely on that reaction at the Pazo dos Deportes in Lugo to avoid a mess like the one six days ago led by DeAndré Lansdowne (22 points and 27 PIR).
