Alba Joy After Cup Success: "Substance Is There" - Alba Berlin Secures First Cup Win, Defeats Ulm 90:68
Alba Berlin has secured their first cup win of the season, defeating ratiopharm Ulm 90:68 in the quarter-finals. Despite a slow start with three losses in five games, the team's strong second-half performance has sparked hope and confidence.
Business manager Marco Baldi praised the team's display, stating they finally showed their true potential when playing together. The victory was built on a solid defensive foundation, which was crucial in securing the win.
Point guard Martin Hermannsson believes the team is improving and drawing parallels with their successful years under coach Aito Reneses. However, Malte Delow warns that there's still work to be done, despite the win. The team is now set to face last season's champions, FC Bayern Munich, in their next match.
Alba Berlin's next challenge in the basketball championship after their victory against Ratiopharm Ulm on Sunday is BC Pharmaserv Marburg. Despite the progress, business manager Marco Baldi acknowledges that the team is still a work in progress, aiming to build on this victory and continue their improvement.
