The basketball players of FC Bayern Munich suffered a setback in the fight for the playoffs in the Euroleague.
At the Spanish top club Valencia BC, the team of coach Andrea Trinchieri lost 73:82 (32:33) and could not further reduce the gap to the coveted places to participate in the knockout round. With a record of 9:13 wins, the gap in eighth place has increased again.
Before the break, the defensive lines dominated the game on both sides. The Munich team was 14:16 behind after ten minutes. In the second quarter, both teams showed some weaknesses at the end. With a successful three-pointer in the last second, the Spaniards went into half-time with a score of 33:32.
Winston stark
Even after the change of ends, both teams remained on an equal footing, and Valencia again ended the quarter with an important goal from distance to take the 61:57 lead. The hosts extended the lead in the final round. Bayern made too many mistakes under their own basket and on offense. After two wins in a row, they suffered a defeat again. The best thrower for Munich was the strong Cassius Winston with 22 points.
