AS Soleuvre C edged Telstar Hesperange C, 73-67, after a game that swung on a dominant second quarter and late-game composure. Telstar struck first behind Vilius Adomenas (Season PPG: 11.20), taking the opening period 27-26, but Soleuvre flipped the script with a 16-6 second quarter, powered by a 14-1 run from 27-27 to 28-41. Halftime: 33-42.
Vincent Sunnen (31) was the game's standout with 30 points, mixing outside makes and steady free throws. Tom Lahure (Season PPG: 12.67) added 19 and a crucial late two, while Jérémy Le Marchand (Season PPG: 7.67) chipped 9 before fouling out. Soleuvre's lead peaked at +13 multiple times (28-41, 54-67, 56-69).
Telstar kept punching. Adomenas poured in 25 and carried stretches of the first quarter with repeated trips to the line and drives; Romas Degutis (Season PPG: 8.00) hit timely threes and finished with 13, matched by Domas Savickas (Season PPG: 8.50). Down 56-69 in the fourth, Telstar authored an 11-2 run to 67-71, but Soleuvre closed it from the stripe Sunnen and Lahure were the game winners in the final minute sequence, with Tim Geiben also adding a late basket.
Discipline and foul trouble shaped the finish. Telstar's captain Arnas Damosevicius (42, LTU) had 11 before fouling out; Savickas also exited late. For Soleuvre, Le Marchand and Rayane Haddi fouled out, yet Coach Tim Geiben's group managed the clock despite a bench technical in the fourth. The game featured tense moments earlier too, with unsportsmanlike calls on both sides and a third-quarter technical on Damosevicius.
Quarter scores: 27-26, 6-16, 16-18, 18-13. In the table, Telstar sit 3rd (3-4), Soleuvre 4th (3-4). Telstar's two-game streak ends; Soleuvre bounce back from their last loss.
