The Tango de Bourges already had a foothold in the rest of the competition, after their victory against Brno in the first leg of the round of 16 of the EuroCoupe on Monday January 17; since last night, they are well and truly qualified for the 8th finals ! The Berruyères basketball players again beat the Czechs in the return match. Landslide victory, 94 to 55 in front of 2,000 spectators who came to encourage them at the Prado.
The players therefore followed the advice of their coach Olivier Lafargue, who wanted to see them harden their game, perhaps also thanks to the complete presence of the workforce. Indeed, the leader Alix Duchet made her return to the court at the start of the year after tearing her meniscus at the end of October.
In the round of 16, the Tango will face the Greeks of Olympiakos, first leg on Thursday 27 January.
Before that, the Berrichonnes host Montpellier on Sunday for the French Cup quarter-finals.
