Anglet speaks about his experience in Toulouse (52-55)

Only eleven seconds left on the clock. ACBB throw-in. Roche comes to provoke Ondineme. Mistake ? It is debatable but Roche (who has long judged the referees of the evening to be influenced) adds a tad and falls to the ground. There will be two free throws, and even three after the technical fault of Ondinème for dispute. The Angloye does not tremble (13 out of 15 free throws on Saturday) and gives three points ahead of the ACBB (52-55).

During the seven seconds remaining, the Basque zone is as solid as a pelota fronton and pushes back the last local balls. Anglet has just made his experience speak. But he should have secured his victory much earlier.

“We were not annoyed”

First dominating (6-13, 6th), the Angloyees let Toulouse regain confidence (13-15, 10th), before missing the boat in the second quarter. Admittedly, they were going to take it away (10-17, 23-32 at the break) but leaving five free throws on the way which were missed when Delpech and Ondinème accelerated to place Toulouse in the lead (40-37, 29th).

Fortunately, Duchez, good nutritionist that she is, knew the complete menu to win: to speak about her experience at 3 points. A “buzzer beater” at the end of the third period (40-40, 30th), a shot to maintain confidence (42-43, 32nd). Toulouse took the advantage for a short time (52-51, 38th). Glère equalized. 52-52. We know the rest.
