Entente RES AMI B controlled the second half to win 54-36 at Mondorf in the M-U18 Division 4 Phase 2 round-robin. The opening was tight (7-9, then 16-21 at halftime), and Mondorf even surged ahead midway through the third when Arthur Ladonet (15, FRA) buried his third three to make it 27-25. From there, the game flipped: ERAB strung together a 9-0 run to close the third quarter, turning a 29-29 tie into a 29-38 lead. That stretch, driven by Illia Malkin (17, UKR), was the hinge.
ERAB's attack was built inside: 22 made two-pointers to Mondorf's 11. Matt Mossong (17) scored 12 on six 2s, Vincent Théo Sarrazin added 13 (five 2s and a triple) despite four fouls, and Malkin contributed 11 with five free throws and three 2s. Finn Stoltz chipped in 8, including two free throws in key moments. ERAB finished with 7 made free throws and just one made three, but their paint pressure decided it.
For Mondorf, Ladonet led with 12 (three 3s), while Clément Channen also had 12 and carried the offense early, though he navigated foul trouble (four). Ilan Ernzer and Daniel Mihaylov added 4 each; late free throws from Mathéo Cérdric Hirth briefly halted ERAB's momentum, but the visitors closed with authority, stretching the advantage to a game-high 18.
Coaches: Filip Dukic (ERAB) saw his group execute after the break; Nebojsa Nikolic's Mondorf battled but couldn't match the interior conversion. ERAB climb to first place (+4) in the new classification, while Mondorf sit fourth and their losing streak extends to four.
