The most intriguing battle in the Euroleague took place in Greece, where Athens’ Panathinaikos (4/9) after two overtime 93:97 (15:14, 14:19, 19:23, 20:12, 11:11, 14:18) landed at Real Madrid (9/5).

After three halves, the Spanish team that led by eight points (56:48) felt better, but did not maintain their advantage for long. Panathinaikos quickly approached, although they equaled the result with only 3 minutes remaining: 66:66.

The remainder of the final quarter was extremely ineffective, marked only by Nemanja Nedovičius’s free throws, and Sergio Llullas restored the status quo with 14 seconds to go. Panathinaikos prepared the last attack during the minute of rest, but did not prepare a shot for the rest of the time and were forced to play an extra time.

In the extra stretch, everything was again caused by the latest attacks. With 20 seconds remaining, Alberto Abalde gave Real Madrid the lead (79:77), and Georgios Vovor returned to draw the key combination in the minute of rest.

This time, Eleftkerios Bochoridis fouled and took both free throws, leveling the score with 7 seconds left in the game. S.Llullas still managed to miss the attack, and Ioannis Papapetrou threw a triple, which could have completed the match but flew over the country.

The determination of the basketball players did not wane and in the second overtime – “Real” was six points from the game, but 11 seconds before the game, G. Papagiannis reduced the difference to one shot (90:93). Trey Thompkins hit free throws and N. Novovičius’s 3-pointer changed nothing.

“Real”: Walter Tavares 20 (14 sec.), Alberto Abalde 19 (4 reps, 6 res.), Anthony Randolphas 18 (2/8 of three points), Trey Thompkins 12 (2/7 of three points), Jaycee Carrollas 11.

Panathinaikos: Nemanja Nedovičius 27 (4/9 triples), Ioannis Papapetrou 18 (3/6 triples, 7th rep), Georgios Papagiannis 14 (0/4 triples, 5th rep), Ben Bentilas 13, Shelvinas Mackas 6 (4 res., 6 res .).
