Spectacular match and one of Dejan Radonjić's biggest victories - after two overtimes, his Bayern defeated Fenerbahce, the team of the most trophy-winning basketball expert in Europe, Željko Obradović (90:86).
Fener twice won extra time. It was done for the first time by Kostas Slukas, who brilliantly feinted Nemanja Dangubić at the end of the regular season and equalized at 66:66.
The end of the 1st overtime was even more exciting, because Vladimir Lučić made a three-pointer 4,1 seconds before the end (80:79), only for Joffrey Lovernj to somehow get hold of the ball after the time-out and use the second throw for 80:80.
In the second five-minute overtime, Danilo Bartel shone both in defense and attack and brought a great triumph to the Bavarians.
Derrick Williams and Stefan Jović were the most effective in Radonjić's team with 19 points each, and the hero Bartel scored 12.
