All participants in the Euroleague quarterfinals are known, the last team to secure a place in the last eight is Real, who defeated Bayern Munich tonight in Madrid - 93:71.

From the first attack of the match it was clear that the team from Munich had no business in the Spanish capital. Bayern was weakened tonight, as their best player, Carsen Edwards, did not play due to a back injury. Edwards will be out for several weeks.

Real Madrid will play Olympiacos in the quarterfinals, while the other pairs are: Fenerbahce - Paris, Panathinaikos - Efes and Monaco - Barcelona. The quarterfinals begin on April 22nd, and the first team to win three games will secure a place in the final tournament.

Real excelled in attack in the first quarter, Bayern could not defend anything and it was during the first 10 minutes that a big difference was made, which the home team increased until the end of the game.

Madrid scored seven three-pointers in the first quarter, and seven players shot from outside the 6,75 line in that period, so after 10 minutes it was 33:17.

All Bayern managed to do after that was get to minus 10 (36:26), but Real was never threatened tonight.

The most efficient player for Real was Hezonja with 19 points. Musa had 16, Abalde 13, Campazzo 12, and Tavares 10 points.
