Barça survive a tough night against Bayern Munich (71-66)

BarcelonaBarça survived a tough game and won against Bayern Munich (71-66). The Barça team, which had lost in the last three and a half minutes, was able to react in time against a rival who proposed a very physical match. The contributions of Kyle Kuric, who scored 20 points with 4 of 4 in triples, and Dante Exum, who added 9 points in the second half, were decisive at the Palau Blaugrana.

Sarunas Jasikevicius recovered Sertac Sanli, but had the casualties of Cory Higgins, Alex Abrines and Pierre Oriola. Barça’s first half was a nightmare. The Catalan team, which was only able to score three points in the first seven minutes, lost eight balls during an extremely low first period (9-9). “Is this a joke?” The Lithuanian coach asked during a timeout. Kyle Kuric’s triples encouraged local offensive production, but Bayern Munich took the lead with a 28-29 lead.

Barça never felt comfortable against Bayern Munich and reached the last three and a half minutes at a disadvantage (60-61). Exum’s contribution and Kuric’s triples prevented the visitors from winning, and a partial 11-5 final served to secure the win. “I’m not sure I’ve prepared my players well. We have to be careful and that preparation can’t be repeated. We’ve shown character, but that’s a warning to us,” Saras said.

The Joventut de Badalona, ​​meanwhile, will host Zeljko Obradovic’s Partizan this Wednesday (9pm, Esport3 and DAZN). In addition, Baxi Manresa visits the Tofas Bursa (6 pm, Esport 3 and DAZN).
