Basketball: Ulm beats leaders and gets fourth Eurocup victory

The basketball players from rathiopharm Ulm surprisingly celebrated their fourth victory in the EuroCup. The Bundesliga club won against the French representative and leader Mincidelice JL Bourg en Brasse on Wednesday evening with 110: 98 (63:47). The best thrower was Yago Dos Santos with 18 points. Ulm is now seventh in Group A.

The Ulm team, unbeaten in three Bundesliga games, also used the tailwind against the favorites. The decisive factor for the success was the home side's strong shooting rate. 80 percent of the two-point throws found their way into the basket. Every second attempt from the line of three was also sunk.

It didn't matter that Ulm lost more turnovers than their opponents. Because the hosts also had advantages in defense under the baskets. In the end, Ulm also deservedly won at altitude.
