In the basketball champions League, the first match day for the German teams Rasta Vechta and the Telekom Baskets Bonn were anything but good. Both teams had to give up, while the Würzburg Baskets triumphed with a surprising home win. Such results are particularly important because they question the desired success in an international league.

The game between Rasta Vechta and Galatasaray Istanbul started chaotic due to technical breakdowns in the transmission that the audience heard at the screens. After the sound problem was fixed, Vechta quickly had to recognize that they could not arrive against the strong performance of Galatasaray. They were also missing their captain Joschka Ferner, who could not play through migraines.

difficulties for Rasta Vechta

In the game, a large weakness in the defensive area of Vechta revealed, which the commentator Chris Schmidt aptly commented: "They can be slaughtered! What the executioner!" Despite a solid offensive, they could not withstand the pressure. Galatasaray decided to increase the pace whenever they considered it necessary. The best thrower on the Galatasaray side War Otis Livingston II, who scored 21 points. At Vechta, Jayden Gardner was the most successful thrower with 18 points.

In contrast, the Würzburg Baskets experienced a successful start to the international tournament. Against the Israeli team Hapoel Atson Holon led them with a final score of 85:76. This was particularly impressed by Zac Seljaas, who cited the rating with 23 points. The Würzburgers take the top of their group, which ensures the better chance of the next rounds.

Telekom Baskets Bonn in Riga

The Telekom Baskets Bonn also didn't have it easy when they met Vef Riga in Riga. Despite their status as a Champions League winner of 2023, they were unable to convince and had to take up an 86: 72 defeat. The commentator was clear: "Bonn with a catastrophic performance in the last quarter, which they lose with 15 points difference." Many defensive-technical problems have also been addressed that Bonn urgently has to fix in coming games.

These first games not only show individual services, but also the challenges that German teams have to face in a highly competitive international competition. In particular, the teams from the Bundesliga are required to improve both aggressively and defensively in order to be able to survive in the next rounds of the competition.
