Zaragoza Women — Landes Women: 76:75, EuroLeague Women

Saragossa women edged Lannes women 76-75 in a EuroLeague fixture on 14 October 2026. The hosts kept their advantage at home, but only by a single point. To be fair, neither side pulled away at any stage. Saragossa started with more confidence, having won three of their last five. Their 108-72 demolition of Gernika two weeks ago suggested momentum. Lannes, meanwhile, had kept four wins from six in the league. The game stayed tight throughout. By then, the statistical picture told its own story. Saragossa managed 25 successful field goals from 65 attempts, while Lannes hit 29 from 70. The visitors shot more but missed more. Rebounding told another tale. Lannes grabbed 36 boards to Saragossa's 31, including 10 on the offensive end. Yet Saragossa's 20 successful free throws from 24 attempts made up for the deficit. Personal fouls were telling — Lannes committed 25 to Saragossa's 15. The result leaves Lannes top with four wins, though three points clear of Saragossa's six-point tally. Saragossa sit third, level on points with whoever wins their fixture. Cup football has its own rhythm, and this was no exception. We had backed Lannes at 59 per cent confidence. The match refused to follow that logic. Saragossa's defence clamped down when it mattered, and their 19 assists compared to Lannes' 18 showed better ball movement in the closing stages. And here's the thing about narrow victories — they don't always reflect who deserved more. Sometimes the team that keeps its composure wins, even when the numbers suggest otherwise.
