NM1 (2nd day of the play-offs). Chartres – Cep Lorient: 73-86
Between two teams who had started this mini-championship of the play-offs very badly, woe to the loser. After the honorable defeat against Le Havre (79-89), Cep Lorient recovered at the best of times to rekindle the flame on the one hand and to maintain the hope of finishing in first place on the other, synonymous with rising to Pro B.
In a team that was keen to wash away the affront of its defeat against Poitiers (77-62), which has the greatest offensive strike force in the championship, the Morbihan club immediately controlled operations, accelerating at the end of the first quarter (11-12, 7′; 12-23, 9′). Confident and freeing themselves as the Eurelians got annoyed at not finding the key, the five majors met expectations and gave complete satisfaction. Thus, in the end, it was five players with 11 points and more who left their mark on this duel which finally gave birth to a show of force from the visitors.
overflowing activity
Sometimes by Doumbia (16 points), sometimes by Djambo (17 pts), Lorient struck in all directions to secure his rear (25-44, 18 ‘). Never, C’Chartres was able to thwart the plans of the Morbihannais, who led by a prolific interior sector (54% success), were always one step ahead (39-55, 26 ‘). Even when the Chartres rebellion began to become threatening in the wake of the Mukuna-Bernaoui duo (48-59, 29 ‘), nothing altered the forward march of the Cep, which straight in its boots, finished with a bang (61-75 , 36’).
By rebalancing its counter (5v-5d), Philippe Maucourant’s troupe has given itself grounds for hope and satisfaction before the reception of Lyon SO on Friday evening. All beneficial.
