Will Basket Brussels be resurrected in Rotterdam? “March was bad, in April there are no more excuses” (Brussels)

Will the resurrection follow in Rotterdam? After a bad start in the Elite Silver, a wandering Basket Brussels hopes to win again on Wednesday evening when they visit Feyenoord. With another loss, reaching the Belgian play-offs will be very difficult. “It’s a must,” says coach Serge Crevecoeur.

After four days of play in the Elite Silver, Basket Brussels has fallen from first place to the bottom of the rankings. Of its four games in March, it won only one. As a result, the people of Brussels can no longer afford new slip-ups. “It’s a shame that we lost our bonus after a good regular competition,” says coach Serge Crevecoeur. “We were in pole position, but due to a lack of fighting spirit we lost that margin. March was bad, in April there are no more excuses. It is necessary if we want to reach the Belgian play-offs. The coming week is likely to be crucial in that regard. After Feyenoord on Wednesday, we will receive Den Helder Suns on Friday to make the long journey to LWD Basket in Leeuwarden next Tuesday, April 9. A win in Rotterdam should launch us again.”

Feyenoord Rotterdam, like Basket Brussels, has 1 in 4 in the Elite Silver. In the regular phase in the Netherlands it could only win six times. In principle, there should be opportunities for the residents of the capital. In addition to the top five of the Elite Gold, three of the six Belgian teams from the Elite Silver qualify for the Belgian play-offs.
