Spar Girona | Tuesday, 16 December 2025

Spar Girona faces the second day of Phase 2 of the EuroLeague Women this Wednesday, December 17, at 7:30 p.m., with a demanding trip to the Flammes Carolo court. The match will be played at the Caisse d’Espargne Arena and can be followed live on 3Cat and Ellas Vamos.

About the opponent

Flammes Carolo currently occupy the last position in Group E with a balance of two wins and five losses. In the first round of the second phase, the French team fell to Tango Bourges 85-57, while the two victories achieved so far have been against the eliminated Sopron Basket.

However, Carolo has shown good competitiveness at home, falling by only six points to Galatasaray ( 56-62 ) and by two points against Famila Schio ( 79-81 ).

At the individual level , the offensive potential of Isabelle Strunc, the team’s top scorer with 12.1 points per game, the interior game of Elizabeth Dixon, who contributes 9.7 points, 7.4 rebounds and a 13.6 rating, as well as Noemi Brochant, with 10 points, 3.6 assists and a 12.7 rating, stands out. In the management, the point guard Coline Franchelin is a key player, with an average of 6 assists per game.

The Spar Girona

The Girona team arrives at the event as leaders of Group E, with a record of six wins and one loss, tied with Galatasaray.

Roberto Íñiguez’s team comes into the match after a prestigious victory in Fontajau against Famila Schio by 81 to 72 , a result that reinforces the good dynamics of the Girona team in this second phase. Despite the classification, the match is expected to be very demanding, since Flammes Carolo usually plays strong at the Caisse d’Espargne Arena, a pavilion with a lot of atmosphere that usually demands the maximum from visiting teams.
