The first quarter began with the V Nere going ahead 9-2 and leading 17-13 at the end of the first ten minutes. In the second quarter, the guests keep the lead almost unchanged until the long halftime approaches, at which time it ends in a perfect tie, 38-38.

The V Nere lead is the same.

It is Reyer that makes a small break in the third quarter going up 51-46, but the lead does not last any better: it goes point to point until the end of the quarter, with the hosts ahead 60-59 and that at the beginning of the last ten mnutes they extend again to 65-61, however, this time too it does not last long, on the contrary, it is Virtus that puts its nose ahead again at 76-74.

Here, however, the Felsinians literally collapse: 10-2 partial for Reyer in the last 2’45” and series that will be decided in the bella. For Neven Spahija’s hosts 21 points and 11 rebounds by Mfiondu Kambengele, for Dusko Ivanvc’s team 17 points each by Will Clyburn and Mouhamet Rassoul Diouf.

The series was decided by the Reyer.

In the first round of the men’s singles at Roland Garros, nice win for Matto Gigante, world number 167, who in a match between two tennis players from the qualifiers dominated with a score of 6-4 6-2 6-0 the Lebanese number 221 Benjamin Hassan.

Only the first set was quite mvimented: Gigante, making his overall debut in the main draw in Paris, from 2-2 went ahead 5-2 with a double break, however, he had one of the two break leads recovered by missing a set point, on 5-3 he missed two more set points but finally on 5-4 he held serve at zero.

The 23-year-old from Rome misses two break points already in the first game of the second set but in the third he breaks Hassan’s serve, he also has two double break points at 4-1 but the second break comes at 4-2 and shortly afterwards the second set is also in the bag.

The third set is a monologue of Gigante, who has to save only one break point in the second game but from 2-0 in his favor 30-15 service Hassan wins the last 15 points of the match and will now face the winner between Argentina’s Tomas Martin Etcheverry and Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas.

At Stadio Giovanni Zini, Cremonese overturned the 2-1 loss in the first leg by beating Juve Stabia 3-0 and qualified for the final of the Serie B playoffs.

The Grigiorossi took the lead in the 28th minute: Barbieri took advantage of a misunderstanding by the Campani and went toward the opponent&#8217s penalty area, then provided an assist to Castagnetti, who first-intentionally with his left beat Thiam.

In the second half, in the 60th minute the hosts doubled by scoring the decisive goal for qualification: a minute earlier Andreoni was sent off with the help of VAR for a last man’s hand foul, on the free kick Vandeputte serves Johnsen who with the right fulminates Thiam.

In the 67th minute the final seal: Vasquez for Vandeputte who with his left fires Thiam in the first post. Cremonese now awaits the winner of the other semifinal between Spezia and Catanzaro to play for a place in Serie A.
