Crvena zvezda Telekom izgubila je od Cedevite rezultatom 62:83 u poslednjoj utakmici Top 16 faze Evrolige. U utorak crveno-bele čeka četvrtfinalna serija sa CSKA.

Belgrade’s Red and Whites have lost to Cedevita in Zagreb, ending another Euroleague Top 16. Despite no competitive value and having lost the chance to move forward in the competition, Cedevita’s players seemed far more motivated than their guests. A new challenge awaits starting Tuesday, as they will face off Moscow’s CSKA in the Top 8 series.

Fenerbahçe leads Red Star to the TOP 8

Uprkos iznenađujućem porazu od Darušafake, Crvena zvezda Telekom plasirala se u Top 8 fazu Evrolige. Naime, zahvaljujući prethodnim rezultatima iz grupe, ishod meča Fenerbahče – Efes, odlučivao je o daljoj sudbini crveno-belih. Pobeda Fenerbahčea od 90:86, omogućila je Beograđanima put u narednu fazu takmičenja.

After a shocking defeat against Darussafaka, Red Star was left waiting for their faith to be decided in the match between Fenerbahce and Efes. Due to the prior scores of the group, Fener winning meant that the Red and Whites would get their Top 8 ticket. Which is exactly what happened. Fenerbahce has won by 90:86. 

Red Star turns it around in Malaga

Crvena zvezda Telekom, napravila je večeras pravi preokret protiv ekipe Unikahe. Od naizgled izgubljene utakmice, crveno-beli su se potpuno vratili u igru i upisali izuzetno važnu evroligašku pobedu od 78:72. Istorijski prolazak u Top 8, na dohvat je ruke. 

Red Star makes a complete 180, as they leave Malaga with a win against Unicaja. Despite a poor impact in the first half, a change of moral and a strong shooting pace from Marko Simonović, Stefan Jović and Marko Gudurić brings another win to the Belgrade team, as they can almost taste the next stage. The final score was marked at 78:72, and only one win stands between the Serbs and the Top 8.

Euroleague’s CEO Jordi Bertomeu will visit Belgrade during next week, as part of the competition’s initiative for preserving as much of the current format as possible. 

In face of inevitable change, Bertomeu and fellow board executives are attempting to keep the elite to themselves, as the Euroleague is being faced with a possibility of another large European basketball competition being created, in protest against the new license distribution.

After the meetings in Belgrade, Jordi Bertomeu will be attending the match between Red Star and PAO, which many consider key for the Belgrade’s Red and Whites in their fight to enter the Top 8 phase.

KK Crvena zvezda Telekom ostvario je veoma značajnu evroligašku pobedu nad ekipom Cedevite. U vrelom Pioniru, gosti su pali rezultatom 94:74, na radost oko 7000 navijača, među kojima se našao veliki broj poznatih ličnosti, uključujući i Novaka Đokovića. 

Ovom pobedom, crveno-beli su samo potvrdili svoje ambicije za nastavak igara u Evropi, a Top 8 faza deluje sasvim izvodljivo, uz učinak od 4-3 i treće mesto u grupi E.

Posle više odličnih partija, kako u Evroligi, tako i u regionalnom takmičenju, Crvena zvezda Telekom se vratila na stare staze gubitka dobijenog. Naime, ekipa Dejana Radonjića ispustila je pobedu nad Darušafakom, rezultatom 69:66 u korist domaćina iz Istanbula.
