Ettore Messina’s home game students were superior with a score of 92:89 (24:22, 26:18, 22:18, 20:31).
After the start of the game, Olimpia began to widen the gap with Bayern, who found no antidote for Shavon Shields.
The Danish forward even set several career records in the Euroleague, scoring 34 points and 41 utility points.
But in the last quarter, Andrea Trinchieri’s students tried to hook their opponents back on the lap.
With the hosts making a mistake in attack and not catching opponents on defense, Bayern ran 10-0 and had two chances to change their fate.
But Wade Baldwin’s pitch was postponed by Kyle Hines, and Paul Zipser’s last desperate 3-pointer flew past.
Interestingly, Olympia scored three points (55%) better than two points (51%) in this match, while Bayern overall scored more utility points (103) than the winners (97).
The guests were treated without injury by Nick Weiler-Babbo and Nihad Dedovic.
Lithuanian Gytis Vilius also worked on the refereeing team that judged the match in Milan.
“Olympiad”: Shavon Shields 34 (5/6 triples, 11/12 free throws), Malcolm Delaney 16 (3/3 triples), Kyle Hines 12 (7 pm), Sergio Rodríguez 8 (7th rep), Luigi Datome and Kevin Punter – 7 each;
“Bayern”: Jalen Reynolds 19 (10th rev.), Wade Baldwin 17 (5th rev., 4th grade), Jauan Juan Johnson 14 (9th rev.

The Milan club were among the four strongest teams in the Euroleague for the first time since 1992. Bayern, for their part, should also have no regrets, as they have become the first German team to reach the playoffs overall.
At the beginning of the quarterfinals, Olimpia won both home games (79:78 and 80:69), but in Germany the conditions were dictated by Bayern (85:79 and 85:82).
The teams finished the regular season in each other’s neighborhood: the Italians finished fourth (21/13) and the Bavarians fifth (21/13).
In the semifinals, Olimpia will compete with Barcelona, who defeated Zenit Saint Petersburg 3-2.
The Euroleague Final Four will take place May 28-30 in Cologne, Germany.
