TVG Trier controlled this U16 friendly after an early 2-0 deficit and won clearly, 82-41, in Wasserbillig. The visitors took the first quarter 25-12 and never let BBC East Side Pirates come back within single digits after the opening minutes.
BEP started through captain Nelly Ney (BEP), but TVT quickly changed the rhythm. Clara (TVT) was the main engine from the start, and Trier built an 11-point margin at 13-2 before closing the first period at +13. BEP stayed active behind Ney and Julie Yvonne Léontine Ronck (BEP), yet TVT's inside scoring kept the gap stable.
The second quarter was the closest stretch. TVT moved from 27-14 to 34-14 with a 7-0 run, again driven by Clara, but the Pirates answered well. Ronck, Ney and Nedzla Eco (14, BEP) combined for an 8-0 response to cut it to 34-22, one of BEP's best passages. Trier still carried a 36-22 lead into the break.
After halftime, TVT opened with another strong sequence, 8 unanswered points for 44-22. Emma Kasel (13, BEP) gave the home side useful resistance with consecutive baskets, but Trier kept control and led 52-30 after three quarters. Ney reached 13 points but also entered foul trouble with her fourth foul in the third period.
The decisive break came in the last quarter. From 32-52, TVT produced a 10-0 run, then stretched it further into a 22-2 surge to put the game out of reach. Clara dominated that phase and finished with 32 points, easily the top mark of the game. Lena (TVT) added 12 and Ida (TVT) 8, while TVT also had support from Amelie with 6 and Eva, Lea and Anni with 5 each.
For BEP, Ney scored 13, Kasel 9 without committing a foul, Ronck 8 and Eco 7. Neither team made a three-pointer; the scoring came from two-point play and free throws. Coaches Tania Mehlen and Ihar saw a game where TVT's repeated runs and fourth-quarter acceleration made the difference.
