“Brno” started the game with a press and controlled the situation on the field from the very beginning of the match. Liepāja basketball players made several mistakes and the guests used them. In the fifth minute, the Czech “Brno” was already 13 points, but after the first quarter it was already 23 points – 31: 8. In the second quarter, too, households did not find a solution to Czech accuracy, and the deficit continued to grow. At half-time, Brno already has a 30-point advantage – 55:25.
The performance of Liepaja residents did not improve sharply in the second half either. They were able to make a breakthrough in the third quarter and regain 13 points, but in the final quarter, the Czechs regained and even increased their lead. Brno basketball players scored 18 of the 27 long shots today and celebrated a convincing victory with a 40-point lead.
For the Brno basketball players, this was the last game of the regular season and they have secured second place with five wins in seven games.
