Saturday, November 30, on the floor of Gaston-Neveur, between the Espoirs de Basket Landes, the leader of the group, and the Stade Rochelais Rupella who are playing to maintain their position, there was no photo. We note that the maritime workforce was missing captain Alice Vérine, a major points provider, and leader Paoline Lacouve, which may have contributed to the local mechanics seizing up.
The Landaises played from the start with an elaborate, fair, lively and efficient game… They dominated the Stadistes who seemed not to be playing in the same division. A first half where the yellow and black were crushed by a talented and killer team. Proof of this is that the brand displays an unfortunate 14 points while the visitors already had the sum of 35 units in their bag.
“Catastrophic”
During these very clumsy first 20 minutes of the Aunisiennes, for the players of coach Vincent Joly, it was a close call from afar, up close… When they returned from the locker room, the Landes fundamentals crumbled, they lost a little of their splendor . La Rochelle had the win in the 3rd quarter, but there it was, they didn't take advantage of it too much, and weren't strong enough to turn the tide. However, in coal, Malou De Kergret (15 points) put her all into it, far too alone, she came out of the duel very battered. In the 30th, the score is 28-46, there will be no suspense in a final anecdotal moment, final score 36-58.
Maritime coach Léo Dalger was bitter: “We scored 14 points in one half, it’s catastrophic. A very complicated start offensively where almost nothing happens. Opposite, Basket Landes played much too easily, we let it happen so our opponents helped themselves. Well, I don't want to say that I skipped this match, but we knew that our opponent was too strong. Saturday, we play in Tarbes, we absolutely have to do something there. »
“It was not a great performance against very clumsy opponents,” agreed Vincent Joly. I remember a decent defense with a decent first 20 minutes, nothing more. What can we say about the second half, in attack we are off topic, we lack accuracy, rhythm and above all we make bad choices. So of course it's a victory, but we are missing things on what we would have liked to produce. »
