Another Euroleague victory was credited to the account of Moscow club CSKA (18/8), which 84:80 (23:23, 10:28, 19:17, 16:28) defeated the Tel Aviv Maccabi basketball players (10/15).

After a perfectly even first half (23:23), CSKA managed to break in the second quarter, when they won the 6-minute stage 16: 0 and built up a solid lead – 45:28. After the big jump, the guest gap was broken and the 20-point mark was 61:39.

When it looked like the fourth quarter would be just a formality, with the Muscovites leading by 16 points (68:52), Maccabi moved closer to 10 points first (61:71) and soon even more 68:74. Although the Muscovites scored 4 unanswered points (78:68), the “yellows” scored 7 points – 75:78.

At the start of the last minute, the hosts were 4 points behind – 77:81. Will Clyburn, who was caught for a foul, hit once, and Tyler Dorsey responded with a triple – 80:82. Tornike Shengelia’s hand did not shake from the penalty line (84:80), and Dorsey lost from distance and CSKA won.

Lithuanian Gytis Vilius judged this duel. The match was watched by 300 spectators, so far this is the maximum number allowed in Israel.

“Maccabi”: Tyler Dorsey 20 (5/7 triples), Othello Hunter 14 (10 rebounds, 25 assists), Angelo Caloiaro 9, Scottie Wilbekin 8 (2/8 triples, 5 rebounds).

CSKA: Will Clyburn 21 (5th ed.), Darrun Hilliard 17 (5/10 triples), Gabriel Lundberg 12 (4/8 triples), Mike James 10 (1/6 triples, 6th ed.), Tengike Shengelia 8.
