In the Champions League Dinamo is tired and loses against Malaga 87-76
Sassari in the game until the 32 '
The return to PalaSerradimigni after four months is sad. Malaga imposes 87-76 because the Banco di Sardegna accuses the tiredness of the fourth match in eight days faced with a reduced staff. The Champions League thus begins an uphill battle for Bucchi's team.
Surprise at the start with Raspino in the quintet instead of Jones. It starts like a Robinson fury that attacks the iron and scores 8 points. Onuaku from below and then by three for a mini festival completed by Bendzius and Kruslin, again from the arch for +15: 21-6. Malaga calls time out and uses the bench: the international Diaz limits Robinson, while Dedovic's triples and Kravish's physical presence in the area promote the 11-0 run that rekindles the match: 21-17.
Bendzius (returned to restore oxygen to the attack) is not enough because the Spanish defense has become tough and Kravish dominates in the area with his half-hook (11 points): parity on 13 ', 25-25.
The return of Robinson and Onuaku gives a boost: +6 at 17 '. But Osektowski and Kalinoski warm the hand and with triple throw the Spaniards forward: 41-47 at rest.
On his return there is Jones in the quintet and finally produces some good plays in a row. Together with Onuaku he promotes overtaking (57-56 in the 26th minute) but the return of the shooter Osektowski makes the guests recover: 60-69.
Dowe fights, Onuaku scores, Kruslin equalizes from three (69-69) but Malaga shoots ahead with Kalinsoki and touches the double-digit advantage: 70-80 in the 35th minute. Sassari has no more energy.
