Halfway through the semi-final of the Leaders Cup Pro B, Orléans is on track to be in Caen in the final on February 16. During the first leg of this first confrontation of the last four, the OLB took a serious advantage by winning by 14 points against the Chorale de Roanne this Tuesday, January 21 (68-82).
Already off to a good start with a very good start to the match (14-23, 10′), it was in the second half that Orléans Loiret Basket built its success at Halle Vacheresse. Regaining its distance at the end of the 3rd quarter (50-59, 30′), Lamine Kébé’s team continued to increase its lead until the end of the match with 7 different markers in the last ten minutes. Despite the great external success of Roanne (9/20 at 3-points), the OLB was able to count on a very clean match of Rudy Demahis-Ballou (17 points on 5/7 shooting, with 5 assists, 4 interceptions and 3 lost balls).
The return match of this semi-final of the Leaders Cup Pro B between Orléans and Roanne will take place on Tuesday January 28 at CO’Met. The other semi-final pits Boulazac against Blois.
