Arlon controlled the friendly in niederkuer from the opening tip and defeated Kordall Steelers 92-48. The visitors opened with a 10-0 run, fueled by THEA (ARL) scoring the first four points, and took the first quarter 17-7. Early in the second period NABA (ARL) strung together three consecutive baskets for six straight points to push the gap to 25-9, and despite a brief Kordall reply with back-to-back triples by Mathilde Amann (19, FRA) and Julie Secco (KDS) for a 6-0 burst, Arlon went to halftime up 45-22.
Kordall found some rhythm after the break through Alisha Staar (23, 1.75m), who converted a wave of free throws and added a field goal (one basket was waved off in Q3). But every mini-run met an immediate answer: JULIE (ARL) and NABA (ARL) kept the scoreboard moving, with NABA also hitting from deep. The visitors' advantage peaked at +46 (92-46) late in the fourth before Kordall's final basket.
Arlon's scoring was balanced and relentless: NABA led with 19, THEA added 15, JULIE 14, and both NAJURA (ARL) and ZOELI (ARL) reached 12. For Kordall, Staar topped the hosts with 17, Secco scored 10, while Amann and Sarah Macri (37, 1.75m) contributed 7 each; Charlotte Ambre Treinen (34) added 5. Macri later fouled out in the fourth quarter.
Key stretches defined the flow: Arlon's 10-0 start set the tone; NABA's six in a row early in Q2 broke the game open; Kordall's 6-0 on two threes briefly trimmed the deficit; Staar knocked down a string of free throws in Q3. Coach Issa's side maintained pressure throughout, while Coach Secco's time-outs in the 2nd and 3rd quarters couldn't halt the visitors' momentum. Five Arlon players finished in double figures, underscoring a collective performance.
