Due to a slippery court in Cologne, France and Germany in front of 18.500 fans couldn’t play at full speed in their last preparation game before the Eurobasket. Still the defending champs got the 68-63 win.
Mickael Gelabale (12 p.) with a crucial bucket and Nando De Colo (14 p.) with five points in the last minute decided the outcome against Dennis Schroder (16 p.) and Dirk Nowitzki (10 p.). However it was obvious that the main concern of both teams was not to have any last minute injuries.
An ice skating ring under the floor of the basketball court was the reason of all this situation, but France got one more win.
