Hamburg's Veolia Towers failed again: clear defeat in Bulgaria!

In an exciting Eurocup game, the Veolia Towers Hamburg had to accept a defeat again. Last Tuesday, the team fought in Samokov, Bulgaria, against Hapoel Jerusalem, but did not go beyond 74:89. This is the third time that Hamburgers have remained without victory on the European stage this season.

The Hamburgers started anything but well in the game; They quickly fell 0: 8 behind. However, this negative start did not start the team and they fought back into the game by reaching the equalization at 16:16 in the first quarter.
