Stade Malien qualified for the final of the Elite 16 of the West division. This Saturday, the Malians beat Kadji Sports Academy (KSA) of Makhtar Gueye (80-59) in the semi-final of the BAL 2025 qualifiers at the Palais des sports in Treichville.
After filling up in the group stage with three victories in as many matches, the champions of Mali managed to achieve another prestigious feat against the Cameroonians of KSA. In such a controlled match, the Malian team clearly dominated this meeting, as evidenced by their 17-point advantage at half-time (45-28).
During the second period, Stade Malien returned to its habits with remarkable mastery which even allowed it to take the lead over its opponent in the third quarter 63-43. The Malians, arriving in the last quarter, definitively destroyed the hopes of Makhtar Gueye and his teammates by winning brilliantly with a 21-point lead at the end. This victory gives Stade Malien two qualifications at the same time, the final of the Elite 16 and for the BAL 2025 Sahara conference.
