The days follow one another and look alike for the Chartrains who suffered their third setback during this second phase. Neck and neck with the Maritimes for three quarters, Sébastien Lambert’s men finally cracked in the last act.
Compared to the last match, one Chartrain was missing on the score sheet, the Spaniard Federico Ucles. Injury or punishment following the sad performance of the Iberian during the last meeting against Lorient (73-86)? In any case, the leader Yann Siegwarth, suspended after a 4th technical foul on Tuesday, was present on the Rupella floor, unlike the injured Maritime Desmond Quincy-Jones.
Clerence saves the furniture a bit
Beaten in Poitiers (77-62) then at home against Lorient (73-86), the Chartrains fell again, this time on the floor of La Rochelle, nevertheless making equal play with the Maritimes for almost 30 minutes. In front, three minutes from the end of the third act (48-51, 27′), Sébastien Lambert’s men collected a 14-1 between the last two quarters (65-52, 32′).
Next match Tuesday evening where the CCBM will receive Rueil.
