Four minutes before the break, was the right Alarm in the Arena at the Ostbahnhof. Many of the slightly more than 8000 spectators clapped and sang. Alba’s playmaker Stefan Peno was just on the opponent’s basket in the night and had finished with a powerful Dunk. 76:66 it stood there, it was the preliminary decision in the game against AS Monaco. At the end of the panel 83:74 (44:38). The basketball players of Alba Berlin won so your first game in this year’s round of the Eurocups.
“It was important that we are well into the new year,” said Alba professional Tim Schneider. The 21-Year-old played great, hit all of his throws and came up with 16 points.
The new year began for Alba with winning the jump ball. Landry Nnoko was in a duel with Elmedin Kikanovic. The latter played between 2015 and 2017, in the case of the people of Berlin, and was at that time as a goal of safer launchers. This ability he has retained until today. His first action on Thursday against Alba: A squeaky-clean, Two-point shot without a ring contact. Many more litters of this type should follow him. In the first quarter of the Berlin, however, held first of all with the sheer force of Nnokos. The Center snapped under the basket for the Rebounds, blocked repeatedly, the throws of the opponent, and came often to the financial statements. However, it lacked the strong man something to support. The Berlin Guards rejected more often. Even the Alba mascot over targeted with a missile, the T-Shirts for the spectators kept ready, once and remained on the display panel.

Beautiful from the point of view of the Albanian Fans was sure that coach Aito Garcia Reneses remains faithful to its Motto and also in the new year to the many young and talented Berlin-based players. The 17-year-old Franz Wagner came on Thursday as well as the only three years older Bennet Hundt. The Director took the other, Luke Sikma. Monaco’s Eric Buckner had probably made a fatal mistake: He blocked a dunk attempt Sikmas and laughed the Albanian player in the face. Laughed back, and was henceforth to be controlled by the opponent.
Alba moved thanks to Sikma, and also the accurate Tim Schneider, went with a ten-point lead into the final quarter. There the tireless Kikanovic (26 points) had to contend against defeat. But he was pretty alone in this. The hosts were able to give, however, Sikma a breather, mainly because Schneider this evening succeeded in everything.
