A final attempt from Axel Julien at three points made a submarine and Dijon conceded its third defeat in a row, and especially the ninth of the season. Here is the JDA in a situation, if not perilous, at least uncomfortable for a team that we saw in the forecasts in the first half of the ranking.
“I am disappointed for the players, they are not paid for their efforts,” said coach Laurent Legname in the post-match conference, reports Le Bien Public. We have a timid start but then we make the effort to come back, we go to +7 in the last quarter We let them come back on offensive rebounds (Editor's note: 14 to 7 for the SIG), we watch the ball and we give them a lot of offensive rebounds throughout the match, but especially when. we are at +7 We were once again within our standards offensively, unfortunately we had too many problems with this offensive rebound.”
Laurent Legname was angry with refereeing decisions that he considers harmful to his team.
« (A 89-89), there is a huge foul on Phil (Booth) who has his arm torn off. There are far too many inconsistencies at the refereeing level. You have to turn your back and continue to work. We know that this championship is very homogeneous, we could have taken the last three (Chalon, Cholet, Strasbourg), it goes in the wrong direction. »
With his 18 points and 22 ratings, Jeff Roberson played a major role in the SIG victory.
“It’s a difficult away victory in a hostile environment,” he said. commented. It was a close match and we found a way to win. We were resilient as a team. Everyone raised their level. We were good in the important moments. We had a lot of injuries, but we managed to win. The young people gave us a good helping hand. They too did good deeds. Now we have to continue to work well in training. We want to get to the break with good momentum so we need a third win in a row in the Christmas match.”
Strasbourg is in the opposite situation to Dijon with good momentum, three victories in four matches and in the race for the Leaders Cup while awaiting the results of the evening.
