The best game of the season so far in the Euroleague was played by the basketball players of Panathinaikos and Olympiakos.
And they showed why they are probably the biggest favorites for the title this season as well - the first European round went to Olympiakos, who won 94:89 in the "OAKA" hall.
The guests dominated the first half with a perfect defense, had a 13-point advantage, and the top basketball was seen in the third quarter, in which it was 33:30 for PAO, which returned to the game and foreshadowed a big revival.
The champion of Europe later turned it around, but Oli had an answer for everything - Evan Fournier appeared, scored from almost all positions, so the team of Jorgos Barkokas gave the fans the sweetest triumph.
Fournier had 22 points (6-4 three-pointers), Saša Vezenkov scored 20, Nigel Williams-Goss 13, and Nikola Milutinov 12 with eight rebounds...
In Ergin Ataman's team, Kendrik Nan was better than the others with 20.
After a great turnaround, Monaco defeated Anadolu Efes in Istanbul - 81:69.
The home team "shut down" in the last period in which Aleksandar Obradović's team was better by 19 points - 29:10.
Jorgos Papajanis led the visitors with 15 points, Vincent Poarje (14) stood out for Efes...
Barcelona easily overcame Baskonia (91:68), and Fenerbahçe had a lot of problems when visiting Asvel - in the end, they got what they wanted (77:73) with 25 points from Nigel Hayes-Davies.
The second victory of the season was achieved by Virtus - against Maccabi in Bologna (84:77).
