Gmunden’s basketball aces are only separated by a victory of their first title since 2012. 79:64 (39:33) over BC Vienna led the Austrians to the cup final, in which the Oberwart Gunners will be the opponents on January 23. In the only seasonal duel with the Burgenlanders so far, the Swans held the Super League lead with 87:73 on Nov. 1.
With a defensive performance like Tuesday’s, Gmundner will be hard to break even in the showdown (probably in Graz). “We did what we set out to do. Apart from some initial difficulties, it was great,” said captain Enis Murati, who was the night’s top scorer with 22 points. There were also eleven rebounds and three assists.
“To win the cup, we have to get everything we can against Oberwart,” added Murati. Daniel Friedrich defied the headache and scored 18 points. (Alex)
