Caen Basket Calvados set the record straight, Friday April 8, 2022, by winning its third victory in the high group against Poitiers (74-67). The second in the standings, who no longer seemed able to catch up with the excellent leader from Angevin, did not exist at the Palais des Sports.
three quarters fire time
The Caennais performed with a beating drum (8-0, 3′) and never wavered apart from a last quarter where the outcome was sealed. Skillful and aggressive, they built their victory with a regularity that we hadn’t known for a long time. At halftime, Poitiers had scored only 27 points and the gap was already made (42-27, 20′).
Diamé at water market
In this convincing ensemble, one man stood out. Moïse Diamé, well relayed by a Kevin Bracy-Davis found, performed a daunting performance against the Poitevins. It’s simple, the Senegalese did not miss anything in all areas of the game, in attack as in defense. He finished the game with an exceptional line of stats: 22 points at 10/12, 10 rebounds, 5 steals and 4 blocks. Martins Igbanu did not play.
Two games before the playoffs
After a contained rise until the third quarter, where Florian Thibedore regained his vista, Caen let go of the ballast. Way too much ballast. The Normans, however, never trembled. The next CBC match will oppose it to Angers, Tuesday April 12, 2022. There will only be one group match, three days later against Lorient.
