Everything in forty minutes, overtime permitting: the Happy Casa Brindisi will play Sunday afternoon the access to the main phase of the Basketball Champions League, in an inside or outside challenge against the French of Cholet, a chance that the biancoazzurri have earned by beating on the neutral of Antalya (Turkey), in the previous rounds of the Qualification Round, Oradea and Den Bosch.

"A final è always nice to play, we earned it on the court,” said Fabio Corbani, coach of Brindisi. “We will have to put great energy against the bodies of our opponents, we have seen in these days their important qualities. We have been very good at winning the chance to play this game thanks to the contribution of everyone, from the staff and to the players".

"Yesterday,” he added, speaking about the challenge won against the Dutch club, “we played a high-level defensive match, the boys were good at following the tracks set and turning them at the same time into great intensity" against a well-organized and quality team. Now we have to recover physical and mental energy, tomorrow we have a real battle".

Regardless of the final result, in any case, Brindisi will play a European cup under the aegis of FIBA: in case of success against Cholet it will be included in Group C of the Basketball Champions League (with tenerife, Darussafaka and VEF Riga), otherwise it will have to play the minor competition, the FIBA Europe Cup.
