Africa-Press – Angola. The quarter-finals of the Angola Cup in senior women’s basketball will feature the match between Formigas do Cazenga and Sporting de Luanda, today, at 3:00 pm, at the Sports Pavilion with the same name, for the first leg of the tie. The Lions, with more options in terms of squad and competitive structure, start as favourites. The team coached by Ângela Cardoso has a solid rotation, offensive volume and experience in decisive games, which gives it a theoretical advantage in the fight for a place in this first stage.
The warriors, in turn, are banking on their usual commitment and resilience to counter their opponent’s favouritism. Known for their speed in transitions and ability to fight until the last second, Formigas, coached by João Formosa, intend to surprise, exploiting Sporting’s mistakes and betting on a fast and aggressive game.At home, the Cazenga team relies on the support of the crowd and uses this factor as an extra incentive to take the lead in the tie.
With the dream of lifting the Cup still alive for both sides, the duel should be decided on the details, since the effectiveness of outside shots and the control of rebounds could be decisive.
In the second game, scheduled for the same time, Interclube-B will host Desportivo La Bomba at Pavilhão 28 de Fevereiro, with the Police team being slight favorites.
In a direct elimination tournament, any carelessness could be fatal, and both Interclube-B and La Bomba are ready. The expectation is for an electrifying game, which promises to be stop-and-go and comebacks until the final moments.
