Hapoel Jerusalem rose to the FIFA Champions Cup quarter-finals after a 73:79 win in Greece at the expense of Ketchi. They completed 0: 2 in a series in the match, which was conducted without crowds following the Koran epidemic.

The Jerusalemites completed an excellent week in which a stage in Europe rose and between the two victories also provided a performance against the Maccabi Tel Aviv. Jerusalem will meet Burgos in the quarterfinals with a home advantage. The Spanish team won Sasari 80:95 yesterday in a game without a crowd and also completed 0: 2. It should be noted that Jerusalem and Burgos already met this season at the earliest when each team won at home. If Jerusalem rises to the semi-finals and if things go back to normal, it should host the Final Four in the Holy City.

So what did we have? In the first half everything went according to plan and Jerusalem seemed to be easily cruising towards the goal. Jerusalem did not need a big game to reach 20 points towards the end of the first half. James Faldine finished half with 19 points and more rarely missed 3 penalty shots. Jerusalem left the host on just 28 points in the first 20 minutes with Priestree scoring just 1 from 12 for three and scoring just 27 percent from the field.

Then came one of Jerusalem's weak offensive quarters in the season in which she scored 7 points. The difference has already dropped to 3 and at the end of the third quarter - only 47:53 to Jerusalem. The host team highlighted the big problem of Jerusalem's rebounding defense as it took 22 offensive rebounds. Jerusalem returned to itself in the last quarter. The 0: 9 run led her to 57:70, Priestri lowered to 71: 76, but Jerusalem managed to keep the win.

Other quarter-finals set to start on the 24th: Israeli coach Oren Amiel's Nimburk - AAC Athens, Tenerife / Ostend (third game in Spain next week) - Zaragoza, Telecom Ankara - Dijon / Nizhny Novgorod (Third game in France next week).

Scored for Hapoel Jerusalem: Jacob Brown 25 points, James Paladin 24, Tyshon Thomas 13, John Holland 6, Emmanuel Terry 3, Nimrod Levy, Suleiman Brimmo, Bar Timor and Shalvin Mack 2.
