GMUNDEN. Another extremely close result against Graz. The Swans bring a 2-point lead over the finish line and win a very exciting basketball game 78:76.
It wasn’t a good game, but you have to win games like this first because this win was anything but a gift. Gmunden had to work hard for it. The high intensity of the Graz defense caused problems for the Swans. You could tell by the fact that passports were often not exactly fitted on the teammate. It was a really close encounter, in which no team was able to break away decisively at first. But Murati and Blazan from the Swans then each ensured a 71:63 lead for Gmundner with a three. Graz quickly fought its way back to four points. This went on for the whole quarter. Whenever the Swans were only a few points ahead, Graz promptly countered. 17 seconds before the end the score was 76:76. With eight seconds to go, Enis Murati secured the 78:76 lead with a lay-up.
