A major incident occurred inside the Ghazir stadium after the conclusion of the Hikmeh vs. Beirut match on Sunday. Beirut First Club, the champion of the Arab clubs, achieved a thrilling victory against their hosts Hikmeh Beirut, with a score of 90-85 (quarters 21-36, 44-51, 68-69, 90-85) in a match held earlier today at the Ghazir Sports Club in the return leg of the Lebanese basketball championship for men's first division clubs. This victory allowed Beirut to avenge their earlier defeat at home in Shiyah.
The match was intense, with the green team initially leading in the first two quarters. Beirut managed to narrow the gap and then took the lead for the first time at 71-70 at the beginning of the fourth quarter. It can be said that Hikmeh failed to reconcile with their large crowd, which had gathered as usual in the arena, following a series of poor results recently, both in the Lebanese championship and in the Dubai international tournament.
