Lebanon's Sagesee basketball team recovered late in the second half from their poor start to beat Tadamoun 81/78, Saturday, and advance into the semi final round of Lebanon Basketball Championship. 

In the first half, Tadamon had a good start, placing heavy pressure on Sagesse players, who seemed to be paralyzed and unable to handle the critical situation. 

As a consequence, Tadamon dominated the court with a perfect show, which awarded them the leading position over their rivals. 

However, in the second half, the game's rhythm changed completely in favor of Sagesse, who recovered some of their powerful tactics, and carried out their coach's instructions in letter and spirit. 

Their strategy helped minimize the difference in scores at a slow pace but eventually Sagesse succeeded to switch the lead, and win the qualifying game – Albawaba.com
