Matched series now go to Coimbra

The CAB lost this afternoon the second half game by 59-76. The result means that the series between the two teams are tied with a win for each side. The next two clashes between the formations will be in Coimbra, already next weekend. If we need to play a fifth and final game, this will be in Funchal, on May 15. In the form of balance, we can say that the victory was Academic and with all merit. The team of Coimbra was very well, especially in the defense chapter, cancelling the main offensive ‘weapons’ of Friends, and also in the chapter of the uprising, Sunday the fight of tables. In the attack, Academica was judicious in the selection of releases and more effective than the home players. On the contrary, the CAB has been on a ‘no’ day in the launching sector, and quite frankly, it has barely been on three-point launches, one of its main weapons. In defense, the CAB also committed faults that it does not usually commit, which visitors knew how to use, intelligently. In all fairness, victory belonged to the continentals.
