Riyadi clinch title as Jalaa forfeit Game 5 - May 4, 2011

BEIRUT (WABA Champions Cup) - Lebanese giants Sporting Al Riyadi Beirut reclaimed the title of top team in WABA club competition by clinching the 2011 WABA Champions Cup after Syrias Al Jalaa last Thursday forfeited the fifth and decisive game of the Finals series.

The game was scheduled to be played on neutral territory at the Jordanian capital of Amman.

Riyadi had won Games 3 and 4 85-77 and 101-85 respectively to level the series after Jalaa had taken a 2-0 lead with 91-77 and 79-67 wins in Games 1 and 2.

In an anti-climax of sorts, Jalaa chose to forfeit Game 5.

Riyadi, thus became the No 1 team of WABA after a gap of two years, having won the title last in 2008 at Tehran when it was played as a tournament. They had also won the title in 1998 when Jordan were the hosts.

The awards ceremony is scheduled for 13 May in Beirut.
