The Niss’Angels suffered a heavy defeat on Thursday night against the Turkish club Bellona Agรผ, with a definitive score of 50-78. This match was part of the Eurocup’s round of 16.
Cavigal made their European debut last night at Leyrit. The Niss’Angels hosted the Turkish club Bellona Agรผ for the Eurocup round of 16. This team, undefeated since the start of the competition this season, is the overwhelming favorite for the final victory.
And they lived up to their reputation by not giving the Niss’Angels any chance. They widened the gap right from the first quarter. Rachid Meziane’s players scored only 9 points in the first period compared to 27 by their opponents.
The teammates of Romy Bar, who was rather quiet during the game, were never able to make up the deficit. Bellona continued their relentless play throughout the match with an impressive shooting accuracy (66%). Final score for the Turkish team was 50-78. The return match, on Wednesday, January 25, in Turkey, will likely be merely a formality given Cavigal’s deficit and the level of play displayed by Bellona Agรผ.
