AS Soleuvre controlled a lively friendly in Zolwer/Scheierhaf, 95-83 over Mambra Mamer, after navigating a wild start. Mamer blasted to a 12-0 opening (Sleva, Johnson Jr, Beslija), but Christian Parker (SOL) single-handedly hauled the hosts back by scoring Soleuvre's first 14 points in a row. The game flipped in the second quarter with a decisive 20-0 Soleuvre run from 31-32 to 51-32. By early Q4, Eric Bettini's team led by as many as 26 (83-57).
Felix Kloman (SOL) poured in 35 with six triples and nine free throws, while Parker matched him at 35, built on 14 two-point field goals and a three. Among Soleuvre's supporting cast, Sandro Sanches Gomes Junior added important first- and third-quarter baskets; Gilles Weis hit two threes.
For Mamer, the external duo of Rashon Jamal Johnson Jr (26, USA) scored 24 (four threes) and Domenick Sleva had 18. From the club core, Gianni Beslija netted 19 (three threes), with Yigit Kurtes sparking late (five in Q4). A heated second quarter saw unsportsmanlike fouls to Mathieu Lafontaine and Melvin Meyers. Key moment for Darko Ristic's side: guard Alan Bedirhanoglu (29, 1.93m, SWE) fouled out in the third, and Johnson Jr picked up a technical soon after. Mamer's 26 points in Q4 trimmed the gap, but the second- and third-quarter damage was decisive.
