Second Stage Round 2: Kavala - Levski Sofia 73-77

Date: February 13, 2013
The most crucial game of the last round was a loss of Greek Kavala (3-3) at the home court on Wednesday night. Hosts were defeated by Bulgarian Levski Sofia (4-2) 77-73. It was a key game for the top position in Group C as both teams had the same 3-2 record before this meeting. The guests took control from the first minutes by winning the initial quarter 18-14. But Kavala won second period 17-15. However it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Chavdar Kostov (195-88, agency: Interperformances) orchestrated the victory by scoring 22 points. Forward Dimitar Dimitrov (203-93, agency: Interperformances) contributed with 12 points and 8 rebounds for the winners. Serbian-Greek guard Igor Milosevic (193-86, agency: Beo Basket) replied with 15 points and 5 assists and Scottish-Nigerian Kieron Achara (208-83, college: Duquesne, agency: Two Points) added 15 points and 5 rebounds (on 6-of-7 shooting from the field) in the effort for Kavala. Kavala's coach Angelos Koronios tried various players' combinations and tested in total eleven players in this game, but that didn't help. Levski Sofia keeps a position of Group C leader. Kavala at the other side dropped to the fourth place with three games lost. They share the position with 3 other teams. Levski Sofia are looking forward to face bottom-ranked Teodo Tivat (#6) at home in the next round where they are favorite. Kavala will play against Galil Gilboa in Rosh Pina and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
