Weiler-Babb remains the most reliable resource available to Trinchieri with a three-pointer that takes the Germans 7-6 ahead, which the Serbian replicates. Daniel Hackett tries to build the first extension with a very heavy triple going 13-7, followed by Kyle Weems’ heavy kick 18-11. Belinelli and Bako also enter the dispute and close the fourth at 24-16, a luxury if you think Virtus already have 8 turnovers. in the second part guests refer below always with Weiler-Babb well supported by Jaramaz who scores on the edge of the siren and in general the defenses take charge. Virtus scores just 8 points in 10 minutesi after 24 at the beginning of the match and Bayern took the opportunity to gnaw at the disadvantage and move up to 34-32 with which they closed the first half thanks to the baskets of Obst and Hunter.

The third period opens with the Lucic’s triple that brings the Germans forward and for a moment quenches all Segafredo Arena’s enthusiasm, before Lundberg takes the chair, anticipating a second time as a protagonist and immediately reversing the score to 37-35. Teutonic heroes are always called Obst and Weilber-Babb who don’t want to give up and make life difficult for the boys from Scariolo, who precisely in Lundberg find the guy to ride for a 6-0 personal partial that gives the hosts rhythm who also sees Kyle Weems lighten up, who with two baskets in a row sets the score at 52-51.

The fourth period starts with Milos Teodosic in the shields both in terms of goals and assists for his teammates, V escapes to 60-51 and builds on that groove from which Bayern can’t seem to get up again. The 12-0 forces Trinchieri to the nth time-out, but the music doesn’t change at least initially, as Teodosic scores a triple +13 on an assist from an excellent Alessandro Pajola. When Lucic lights up, Jaramaz scores with the free-kick and again Weiler-Babb hits the back of the retina, Bayern’s -3 scares right at the end and runs the risk of ruining the party that seemed to have already been scheduled 2 minutes before. Virtus, however, plays a great defensive possession with 30 seconds on the clock and Lucic’s last hope is not successful.. Ends 66-63. 15 years later, Bologna is again the protagonist in the most important cup.
