The CAB men's team received Benfica in match for the Portuguese Professional League. Visitors entered the game with all the favoritism given the arguments of their squad, unattainable to any Portuguese team. The CAB was left to work hard and show all the determination that has defined the posture of the club in its dignified walk throughout the period. The game began best for the Lisboners, fruit essentially of Jobey Thomas' offensive inspiration. The Benfiquist pitcher was practically unstoppable, carrying his team on his back. On the CAB side, the collective was also inspired, although offensive production was not sufficient to avoid the disadvantage at the end of the first period by 26-33. In the second period, the CAB was better than Benfica and dominated the marker most of the time. The CAB Pavilion witnessed great moments of basketball, starring in the house, which showed why they are a very strong collective. However, small deconcentrations, which Benfica was able to take advantage of with merit, allowed the players of the Light to regain, in the last minutes before the break, the advantage that had escaped them during the period, collecting to the locker rooms in front for 50-58. At this stage of the meeting, the most effective in the CAB were Jovonni Schuler and Jordan Aaron (both with 14 points. Already in Benfica, the list of the best notifiers was led by Jobey Thomas (16) and Tomas Barroso (12), In the third half, the house team came back very well and caused huge headaches to Benfica. The CAB demonstrated an excellent defensive attitude and a good discernment in the attack. However, in the final moments of the third cover, the Friends began to show some physical wear, allowing the continentals to finish the third time in front of the marker by 75-80. In the fourth and final period, Benfica's greatest physical freshness came to the top. The CAB reacted, quite rightly, by demonstrating an enormous personality, but Benfica's largest number of offensive solutions made a difference again, lying on the ground the enormous effort that the household had made. Despite the defeat (93-105), the CAB showed that it has a very united, well-directed working group that will continue to make a very dignified campaign. In individual terms: Jordan Aaron (23), Jose Correia (3), Tommie Eddie (13), Stefan Djukic (6), Jovoni Schuler (21), Jorge Coelho (22), Frederico Tavares (5).
