Krasnodar’s Lokomotiv-Kuban (1/3) team suffered a serious failure in Group F of the European Cup, out 69:71 (24:22, 24:13, 8:17, 13:19) landed at the Partizan club (2/2) in Belgrade.

The Krasnodar club certainly won the first half of the match (48:35), but in the second they had a hard time overcoming the opponents’ defense and allowed them to get close by almost eight points in the third – 56:52.

At the start of the last minute of the match, Ognjen Jaramaz reduced the difference by three points to a minimum – 66:67. After shots from Kevin Hervey and Joshua Perkins, the score was the same: 69:69. With two seconds to go, Perkins also hit a winning shot, and Jordan Crawford couldn’t save the guests.

The Lithuanians at the Krasnodar Club were unusually pale this time. Kuzminskas Mindaugas scored 2 points (0/2 colonies, 2/2 penalty shots) in 12 minutes, once he broke the rules, caused 2 fouls and scored a single utility score.

Moderately successful and Kalnietis blankets – 23 minutes, 2 points (1/1 point, 0/3 point), rebound, 3 assists, 3 errors and a foul. The player ran out of utility points.

After a long break, the Krasnodar club managed just 21 points.

With two rounds left to play, Lokomotiv-Kuban remains in last place in the group, and to still reach the playoffs we will have to wait for the grace of the rivals. The Russian team will no longer experience a fiasco like last season, when they did not win the group stage, but for the team called one of the tournament favorites, just getting into the “Top 16” is not a satisfactory result either. .

Lokomotiv-Kuban: Jordan Crawford 16 (2/6 of three points), Kevin Hervey 15 (1/6 of three points, 12 points), Reggie Lynch 10 (5/6 of two points), Drew Gordon 7.

“Partizan”: RaShawn Thomas 23 (8 sec., 11/14 colon), Ognjen Jaramaz 11 (3/7 threes), Novica Veličkovičius and Joshua Perkins (5 cam, 4 res.).
