SCHILTIGHEIM - FC Porto and Clichy and Montmartre have qualified for the semifinals in the Europacup as last two teams in the evening session. The reigning champion Agipi and Andernos had already secured their place in the semis.

Tomorrow at 9.00 Agipi will play against Clichy Montmartre, from 15.00 FC Porto will meet Andernos.

FC Porto showed up as a serious contender for the title in his last performance. The Portuguese team with Dick Jaspers and Dani Sánchez as foreign leaders defeated the Germans Gruner Tisch Buer 8-0.

What Joao Ferreira and Manuel Rui Costa set up before the break, did Jaspers and Sánchez in the second part. The Dutchman played a pretty decent match, but didn't feel any opposition from Jens Eggers. Jaspers ran out to a big advantage with a ten-run and ended 40-10 in eighteen innings.

Dani Sánchez had a ten caroms margin at the finish against Mark Galla, who kept control till 24-18, but then saw his opponent escape to a riant score.

The first semifinal is tomorrow (Saturday) at 9.00, starting with the matches between the numbers three and four of Agipi and Clichy Montmartre: Jérémi Bury-Richard Bitalis, Christoph Roux-Jean-Jean Reverchon.

Thereafter around 11.00 Frédéric Caudron faces Eddy Merckx and Marco Zanetti meets Eddy Leppens.

FC Porto and Andernos start at 15.00 pm the second semi-final battle with the first matches Jérôme Barbeillon-Manuel Rui Costa and Joao Ferreira-Francis Connesson. Dick Jaspers starts his match around 17.00 against Roland Forthomme and Dani Sánchez against Peter De Backer.
