Can Association Sportive Sale reach Final at FIBA Africa Champions Cup 2017?

RADES (FIBA Africa Champions Cup 2017) – The dream of Morocco's Association Sportive Sale reach the Final of the FIBA Africa Champions Cup (ACC) rests on their ability to surmount the hurdle posed by 2016 finalists Sport Libolo e Benfica of Angola in Tuesday's second Semi-Finals in Rades.

While the Moroccan will be looking to avenge a 2016 Semi-Final loss to Libolo, the Angolan champions will try to reach the last two of the competition for the fourth straight time.

Both sides have experienced ups and downs early in the competition, but now, they face a do-or-die scenario.

As A.S Sale key player, Abdelhakim Zouita says, the match-up will be a difficult one but they are ready for the battle as they seek to play in the Final for the first time.

The Moroccans reached the Semi-Finals with a 5-1 record while Libolo advanced to the last four with a 4-2 mark.

In one of Monday's Quarter-Finals, the Moroccans easily past Mozambique champions Ferroviario da Beira 92-63 while former ACC champions Libolo faced a harder task of overcoming fellow Angolans InterClube de Luanda 71-67.
