Will Amicale continue the amazing streak in game 1 of the semi-finals? Kremer: « We want to keep the momentum alive »

This Saturday, the first games of the women’s semi-finals will be played between T71 and Amicale and the Musel Pikes and Résidence.

T71 finished the season as the top team in the league. Led by young point guard Catherine Mreches and the experienced former professional player Nadia Mossong, the team of coach Jérôme Altmann managed to grab the top spot after the regular season. In an Interview with T71-coach Jérôme Altmann: “3-4 very exciting weeks are ahead of us” , Altmann said that very exciting weeks are coming up and he was absolutely right. The best example for the rollercoaster over the last days is the team Amicale Steinsel. It started with an amazing overtime-win on the last game-day of the regular season against Basket Esch to qualify for the play-in game. Then, the team of coach Thierry Kremer managed to upset Gréngewald Hueschtert in the play-in game on the road and now game 1 of semi-finals-series against the top team T71 is coming up. Now, the main question will be if Amicale can continue this amazing run on the court in Dudelange and grab a lead in the series to put pressure on T71. „The last days were amazing. We had an enormous comeback against Esch. At the half, we knew that we would come back, my team did an amazing job to win that game. Against Gréngewald, we continued to play with the same intensity and realized a surprise. We were full of confidence and that is exactly what we will need against Dudelange » says head-coach Thierry Kremer, who will not continue to coach the team in the upcoming season. Now, the focus for Amicale is on preparing the the game against top team Dudelange. „Our mindset is exactly the same, we want to stay focused, play with the confidence that we clearly have at the moment and then, anything is possible. Obviously, we are the underdog once again but we want to make it hard for the opponent to beat us. Just like we did against Gréngewald, we need great team play on offense and play with great discipline. The opponent has an incredibly strong team, it will impossible to take all their strenghts away. We need a great night to have a chance. »
