T71 Dudelange C edged Mambra Mamer C, 60-57, in a tight M-Division 4 game decided in the final minute. The visitors burst out 0-6, but T71 answered with a 12-0 run to flip it to 12-6 and closed the first quarter 16-12. With Christian Michel Schreiner (45) hot from deep, T71 stretched the margin to a game-high +11 (25-14) midway through the second and led 31-26 at halftime.
Mamer's surge came after the break. Federico Burcovich (25, ITA) caught fire with multiple threes and brought the game back to 37-37 late in the third, but Aldin Kocan's inside flurry restored a 44-39 cushion for T71 after three. The fourth was a grind: at 49-48, Kocan's U2 gave Mamer the lifeline to 49-49, yet Schreiner responded with a 2+2 from the line for 53-51, Luc Reuter added at the rim, and Schreiner's fifth triple pushed it to 58-51. T71's last basket for 60-52 proved decisive as Mamer closed with free throws and a Burcovich layup to 60-57.
Key moments included T71's 12-0 in Q1 and two quick personals by Merwan Bouacida in Q4, which hurt Mamer's rotation just as the game tightened. Burcovich (27) led all scorers but fouled out late. He was supported by Tom Kayser (12) and Charles Kremer (9), with Thomas Jean Barthelemy adding 5. For T71, Schreiner paced with 23 (five threes), Reuter (16) was steady across three quarters, and Kocan contributed 13 despite the Q4 U2. Alessandro Agostinucci chipped in 4.
Within the roster balance, leaders from the core group powered T71 (notably Schreiner), while the complementary unit (Reuter, Kocan) supplied the decisive second-half buckets. Mamer's core (Kayser, Kremer, Barthelemy) kept them close, and their complementary scorer Burcovich nearly swung it.
Coaches: player-coach Paulo Melanda guided T71 through the swings; Gildas Le Clerc's side rallied twice but fell one possession short. T71C remain 2nd at 3-0 (three straight wins). MAMC sit 5th at 1-2 (loss-win-loss).
