The Ukrainian basketball team completed its performance in the group stage of the prestigious tournament.
Prometheus played in the last match of the Eurocup group round in Riga. The rival of the Ukrainian club is the Spanish Joventut – a direct competitor in the standings.
Note that the nominal visitors look better in three quarters of the match. Gradually increasing their advantage, they entered the decisive phase of the game with a handicap of +13.
It seemed like nothing could stop Joventut from winning, but Prometheus basketball players were against it. The Slobozhan team had an amazing fourth quarter, playing well both in defense and attack, and as a result they won the segment 36:6, and with it the match as a whole.
This victory allowed Ronen Ginzburg’s team to take fourth place in Group A and gain home-court advantage in the tournament’s playoffs.
So, in the EuroCup playoffs, Prometheus will meet the fifth team of Group B. The Greek Aris became the opponent of the Ukrainian team. The game will take place on March 12 or 13.
