In the first round, the team from Freiburg defeated the Scottish team Caledonia Gladiators 57:51 – achieving a miraculous turnaround against the fifth-place team in the British Championship.

Even in the last quarter, the Swiss champions were up to eight points behind (36:44).
In the finish, Fribourg Olympic tightened things up: with ten unanswered points, the Swiss turned a 40:46 into a 50:46. Two successful “threes” in a row by the American Eric Nottage (from 41:46 to 47:46) stood out in this phase. Nottage was Olympic’s most efficient player with 17 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists. Freiburg never relinquished its first lead.
