This is a big surprise in the Nationale 2. Black Star Mersch has managed to grab the 4th and last place in the standings on a thrilling Sunday-evening and will therefore compete for a spot in the Total League in the 2020/21 season.
In fact, Black Star won its game against Wiltz 69:58 and at the same time, Kordall beat Mondorf by 1 point (96:95) and Gréngewald lost in Walferdange after overtime 106:112!
The 3 teams are therefore tied in the standings after 18 games and new “mini-championship“ is created. Black Star has beaten Kordall twice and split its 2 games with Gréngewald so that the team qualifies for the promotion group.
In the promotion group, Résidence, Telstar, Zolwer and Black Star will compete with the bottom 4 teams of the Total League: Contern, Arantia, Sparta and Amicale.
