> The essentials
In a sold-out stadium, Basgaid Stade Toulousain had a fantastic evening, supported by Butler and Aygalenq. His victory, which he got at the end of the suspense, allowed him to both impress the public and stay in the fight for places in the first half of the ranking.
> The meeting
If, after the jump ball launched by Bigflo and Oli, Angevin is the first basket, by grabbing two offensive rebounds on the following attack and equalizing with Jean the Toros to quick showing that they do not want to miss their meeting. And so they succeed. They put pressure on Angers and quickly got a 9 point lead (13-4, 5th, 15-6, 7th). But the Toros caught fire a little too quickly. They confuse speed and haste (10 ball losses in the 1st half) and, despite two 3-pointers from Aygalenq, allowed Angers to take control (23-24, 12th). The visitors took a 5-point lead (25-30, 14th) and, thanks to their defense, kept it until half-time (30-35).
Butler returns from the locker room inspired (34-35, 22nd) but Angevins are the most aggressive. They scored 8-0 (34-43, 23rd). Five consecutive points from Aygalenq warms up the crowd (44-47, 26th). Bohui-Djedje cools it (44-53, 28th). Aygalenq and Jean, at 3 points, keep the suspense (50-54, 30th). And there will be no shortage of suspense. Heroic Butler puts STB ahead (62-60, 38th). Mondesir and Harrath reverse the motion (62-64). Ona Embo captures five minutes of extra time (64-64).
First free throw competition for the benefit of the visitors (65-70, 42nd) they see Butler and Aygalenq finish the faena by delivering the shot (74-73).
