Maccabi Tel Aviv is currently looking for a second consecutive Euroleague victory that will keep the dream of advancing to the playoffs alive, when it meets Panathinaikos and the well-known rival Oded Katash, who was appointed coach of the Greens just two months ago.
Yannis Sapropoulos' Yellows, who lined up for the game with a balance of 11 wins and 15 losses, came with positive momentum, following a derby win and a win over Valencia on Thursday.
The one who continues to be absent is Yuval Sussman, who is recovering from a knee injury.
The history of Maccabi Tel Aviv and Katsh is long and full of unforgettable memories when in the Euroleague final in the 2000 season, when the Israeli guard, then wearing Pau's uniform, starred with 17 points and defeated his former teammates in yellow.
Now it only remains to be seen how this time the meeting will end.
the progress of the game
The visitors from Tel Aviv simply did not appear for the first quarter, and started with 7: 1 to their detriment.
Caspi scored the first field goal, but his team was already 3:11 behind after four minutes.
Aron White continued to snipe and Maccabi Tel Aviv fell significantly behind
at 9:25 at the end of the first quarter.
