The Crailsheimer Merlins couldn’t celebrate their club’s 35th birthday in a better, more exciting or more memorable way. The Merlins win 105: 103 at FC Bayern, who defeated two Moscow competitors in the EuroLeague this week. Match winners were especially happy about the first success against Bayern in the club’s history Trae Bell-Haynes: “This is a nice birthday present for the club.” It was “an unbelievable game,” said Crailsheim coach Iisalo, unusually euphoric. ALBA feels the constant strain of the EuroLeague just like FCB, wins a wild rollercoaster ride against Vechta. “At the moment every game is difficult because we are just playing and traveling,” said coach Aito Garcia Reneses, adding: “It’s tiring”. Oldenburg sets the club record at 124: 84 against Würzburg.

FC Bayern Munich – HAKRO Merlins Crailsheim 103: 105 OT
Saved in extra time shortly before the end, but then lost. Bayern’s Nick Weiler-Babb on the game: “We fought, but it wasn’t good enough. That’s why we can’t be satisfied with our game. Now we have to come back for the next game. ”
Neither a bad injury to Tim Coleman nor an equalization three seconds before the end prevents Crailsheim from their first win against Bayern. Coach Tuomas Iisalo raved about it “An incredible game. The boys showed so much character. We believed in victory all along.” A victory on a special day. Matchwinner Trae Bell-Haynes overjoyed: “It feels great. Today is the club’s 35th birthday and it is our first win against Bayern. It’s a good birthday present for the club. We always believed in ourselves. There were difficult phases during the game, but we did always stuck to the game plan and that paid off. ”
Crailsheim’s managing director Martin Romig remembered the history of the HAKRO Merlins Crailsheim before the game: “There were so many milestones with hall changes and so on. We benefited from the withdrawal of the US armed forces. We threw parties, thousands of visitors came. We were overrun, the brewery was emptied. That was a wild time, that we don’t want to forget. ”
ALBA Berlin – RASTA Vechta 86:70
A 9-point deficit turns into a 16-point victory. Coach Aito Garcia Reneses is healthy again, that’s the good news: “We knew that it would be difficult because Vechta had won the last three games. At the moment, every game is difficult because we are only playing and traveling without the opportunity to train. That is tiring.” His corona disease no longer affects him: “It’s completely gone. I don’t have any more problems with that.”
Vechta loses for the first time in three games. Dennis Clifford stated:“It is very difficult to play against ALBA. They move the ball very well and you never know exactly what they are playing. You have to be mentally careful … When you lose, it’s easy to say that you had to do more . But we’re still a new team and we don’t have the experience yet. We have to learn from this game. ”
MHP Riesen Ludwigsburg – Gießen 46ers 99:85
Ludwigsburg still top, Giessen still last. But the bottom of the table keeps up well for a long time. For the front runner it was the 12th win in a row, although not a glamorous one, said Lukas Herzog: “The most important thing is that we won today. We have to take every opponent seriously and think from game to game. I think we overslept a bit at the beginning. Then a couple of players were brought in who gave a lot of energy and then became we’re getting better and better and in the end we deserved to win. ”
Casting Alen Pjanic: “We played very well at times and didn’t give up at the end. But we have to keep up the pressure on our opponents for 40 minutes and play together … It counts now against Würzburg.”
EWE Baskets Oldenburg – s.Oliver Würzburg 124:84
Oldenburg with lesson and club point record. Keith Hornsby shone with 31 points on his 29th birthday and stated: “The team joked before:” You might get 29 points today: “Then I did two too many. I don’t know why. I just took one more litter. But it was a great victory. Something like that on my birthday is another small present. ”
Würzburg’s Joshua Obiesie classified the defeat: “Happened. We are young and that is part of it. It happens in basketball that you lose with 40 points. That also happens to good teams. Now we have to go on.”
