At the same time, the teams scored 25 points in the third half, but the Piraeus Olympiacos team (11/15) showed their character in the Euroleague home game just by the skin. 74:75 (12:24, 14:20, 23:15, 25:16) landed at CSKA Moscow (17/8).
The Moscow club has been dominating since the beginning of the match (22: 9) and there have been problems with the rival attack. Olympiacos scored just 26 points in two halves, which meant that problems would have to be resolved in an instant after a long break. And it happened.
CSKA started the fourth with 7 points, but missed Shaquielle McKissico nine in a row (35:51), and his good section and Alexander Vezenkov’s contribution brought it even closer – 45:55.

The intrigue reached its peak in the fourth half: Sh.McKissicas played impressively and was unstoppable, Georgios Printezis added three more points, so OLY breathed on the opponents’ backs – 64:65. However, Nikita Kurbanov did not squander his fines, although A. Vezenkov soon responded with a triple: Olympiacos were already ahead 69:68.
Mike James responded, but was soon penalized for a technical foul, so the gap was minimized by Vezenkov’s free kick: 70:71. Livio Jean-Charles again overtook the hosts with the laying (72:71), with only 43 seconds to go. Through them, Joel Bolomboy corrected Nikita Kurbanov’s shot, but Georgios Printezis got it right – 74:73. It is true that he could have taken a free throw, he missed it. Meanwhile, James caused a foul and imposed two fines out of three: 75:74.
OLY had only 2.6 seconds to save, but that was not enough: G. Printezas shot incorrectly after the break.
Two members of CSKA made their debut in this match: Gabriel Lundberg scored 13 points (2/4 doubles, 3/6 trit., 0/2 penalties) in 26 minutes, bounced 4 and took 2 balls, made 3 passes, committed a simultaneous foul , fouled and scored 15 utility points.
