Lithuanian champion Kaunas “Žalgiris” (16/17) suffered a very disappointing defeat on matchday 33 of the Euroleague.
Martin Schiller’s troop after a failed last second of duel 70:71 (22:21, 14:16, 18:20, 16:14) landed at the Bayern club (20/13) in Munich, which secured a place in the quarterfinals.
This is the first German team to capture such an achievement.
Match progress:
Both teams started the match point by point, and in the 6th minute, after a long shot from Lukas Lekavičius, the people of Žalgiris took the lead – 13:11. L. Lekavičius and Nigelas Hayes successfully accumulated points that allowed the Kaunas club to lead after the first 10 minutes 22:21.

The second quarter was more volatile and less productive. In the 16th minute the result was the same – 28:28, but the Bayern club scored 3-pointers from Leonas Radoševičius and 2 points from Wade Baldwin. Fortunately, the pair of Karolis Lukošiūnas and L. Lekavičius, who scored 6 points in an important moment, did not allow the rivals to break more. After two halves, the opponents were ahead in the result. 37:36.

Žalgiris’ people were caught in the attack for almost half of the half, so the opponents took advantage of it and parted until 63:56.

Hayes scored two pitches, Th.Walkup added 2 more points – 68:65. Unfortunately, “Žalgiris” played unsuccessfully at the end of the match: James Gistas scored two colonies and, after a failed attack from the guests, J. Lauvergne fouled Vladimir Lučičius, who scored two free throws. During the remaining 2 seconds, the Kaunas club could not survive and lost 70:71.
“Bayern”: Vladimir Lučičius 13 (sixth camera), Jalen Reynolds 12, Nick Weiler-Babb 11 (3/6 triples), James Gist and Wade Baldwin 8 each.
