The current champions of the WABA League are now also worried about a place in the final four - the Buducnost Bemaks basketball players suffered their third defeat in eight matches against Beroe in the University Hall, 74:69, and until the end they have a grueling battle with Montana (5-3) and Celje (5 -4) for positions three and four, because Red Star (7-0) and last night's rival (6-1) are unattainable.
The girls from Podgorica led only at the start, and then chased the minus all the time. Although they lost 2 points in the 17nd quarter after Ana Poček's basket (22:39), they had a chance to turn things around in the 23rd minute, but Anđelika Mitrašinović hit only the first of three free throws and tied the game at 43:43.
That seemed to be the end of hope, and Beroe reached plus 16 (71:55) in the last section, again through Poček.
Nikoleta Babić and Žil Barta were the best in Goran Bošković's team with 19 points each, while both were excellent in the Bulgarian team
Montenegrins - Pocekova also scored 19 points, along with 12 rebounds, while our best player for 2018, Snežana Aleksić, recorded 13 points and four steals.
