For a long time this Tuesday, January 21, the Bourges club wondered if it was going to play its meeting on Wednesday, January 22 (8:30 p.m.) as part of the second phase of the women's EuroLeague. Despite a wave of gastroenteritis which hit the Spanish team in Salamanca, the meeting was held on this date.
With “eight players” affected by gastrointestinal problems, Salamanca did everything to move the meeting from this Wednesday to a later date in the week. But Bourges, who must also play Saturday at Tarbes in La Boulangère Wonderligue, as well as next Tuesday against Schio in the EuroLeague, refused requests for postponement, indicates the Spanish club. “Bourges argued that it was impossible to change the French championship schedule and the day of the match, and that she had the right not to change our match if she deemed it appropriate”indicates the Salamanca press release.
It is therefore a greatly weakened Salamanca team which should appear against Bourges. Currently 3rd in the group with 6 wins for 4 losses, Tango could take a big step towards qualifying for the Final Six play-in if they succeed in Spain.
