“"We were good defensively in the second half, and that gave us confidence offensively."
The key to the win was the final 8-20 run. Rebekah Bibby was the top scorer with 20 points, including 5 of 8 three-pointers, neutralizing the hosts' initial leads. Laura Quevedo (10 points) and Rebekah Bibby sealed the victory from the corner, despite the strong performance by Sangare, who scored 24 points for the home side.
This victory comes after concluding the EuroLeague group stage in Istanbul. Spar Girona will return to Turkey on the 18th to face Fenerbahçe in the semi-final 'play-in', despite arriving at the game with some players dealing with minor injuries, such as Laia Canella.
