Ludwigsburg's basketball giant win in the Europe Cup with 86:62
In the first round of the FIBA Europe Cup, the MHP giant Ludwigsburg set a clear sign: They defeated the Caledonia Gladiators from Glasgow in front of home with a convincing 86:62. The game took place in its own hall and represented a successful start to the European tournament for the team.
From the beginning it was shown that Ludwigsburg wanted to take control of the game. At high speed and a dynamic style of play, the giants quickly took the lead with 8: 1. In this early phase, John Patrick's team was simply considering what was also evident in the course of the game. Lenny Anigbata celebrated his professional debut and, with a great defensive rebound, ensured a successful assist that culminated in a buzzer Bater by Jakob Partick, at 21:14 after the first quarter.
Game and tactics
In the second quarter, the Ludwigsburgers were able to further expand their lead. A three -point throw from Yorman Bartolo finally increased the distance to ten points. The team dominated the game and always found a way to successfully complete the fast attacks. It was noteworthy that the Caledonia Gladiators waived tactical fouls, which made it easier for Ludwigsburg to enforce their playing style. Another Buzzer Beater, this time from Caledonia, ended the second quarter with a 36:26 at halftime.
The beginning of the third quarter gave the audience hope that Ludwigsburg could continue their strong performance. However, the concentration temporarily subsided, which gave the opponent some options. Coach Patrick reacted with a break at 40:30, and his team quickly found her rhythm. This short interruption brought the giants back to the right course, so that they could extend their lead over 20 points - to the delight of domestic fans.
dominance and refreshing in the last quarter
With a comfortable 16-point lead, the giants started in the last phase of the game. Soon the distance even grew to 33 points, but the trainer took the time to motivate and concentrate his players again. "Every attack is important for progress," emphasized the 56-year-old coach. This speech helped the giant to stay concentrated to the end and to manage the lead confidently.
finally the encounter ended with a clear 86: 62 victory for the Ludwigsburger. Now the MHP hikes are looking at the next challenges: On Sunday they receive the Syntainics MBC in the cup, while on Wednesday they will compete against the team from Albanian Trepca on Wednesday. These games will be crucial to keep the momentum in the current season and to position yourself well in the group of the Europe Cup.
