19.25 “To win we will have to play an almost perfect match. In Race 3 we played hard and went ahead with five minutes to go. In Race 4 we will try to recreate the same situation, counting on a better finish ”, the words of Ettore Messina on the eve of the match.
19.20 Injuries have also hit Efes, albeit less severely, and we will only soon find out if Beaubois and Simon have recovered and if they will be in the game.
7.15 pm Despite the absences and not the best performances of Rodriguez and Shields, in race-3 Olimpia made a comeback, risking the coup before giving in at the end of the game. If he finds his two stars in attack, then Messina could dream of winning in Turkey.
19.10 Efes is leading 2-1 in the series and, therefore, for Ettore Messina’s boys tonight’s is a challenge from inside or outside. If they conquer the Turkish field they return to Milan for game-5, if they lose the Milanese Euroleague it ends here.
19.00 Good evening everyone and welcome to the live broadcast of Efes Istanbul-Olimpia Milano, match valid as game-4 of the Euroleague 2022 playoffs.
Good afternoon to all OA Sport readers, and welcome to LIVE LIVE of the match between Efes Istanbul and Olimpia Milano, valid as game-4 of the Euroleague 2022 basketball playoffswith Ettore Messina’s team forced to win to extend the series.
It starts from 2-1 for the Turks, who therefore have a match point on their home parquet and for Ettore Messina’s boys no misstep is allowed if they want to reach the Final Four in Belgrade. It starts again from 77-65 on Tuesday evening, with Olimpia fighting until the middle of the last quarter, before Larkin and Micic changed gear and closed the conversation.
A very difficult situation for Milan, with the many absent in Istanbul and Datome who played only 2 minutes in game-3 before returning to the bench and being a spectator. With Sergio Rodriguez on the field surprisingly, but who suffered a lot from shooting, and a Shavon Shields undertone ball in hand compared to game-2, the red and white have still risked making the coup and it is above all from the third quarter and from the defense (beyond that from the rebounds) that Milan has to start again to try to bring the Serie A game-5 and play everything at the Assago Forum.
The match between Efes and Olympia will start at 19.30. Have fun with OA Sport LIVE LIVE!
