Maccabi – CSKA Moscow 84-75: Wilbekin – dream and great victory over the “Russian Bear”
With his own performance by Scotty Wilbekin, Maccabi prevailed in the 26th game of the EuroLeague at home against CSKA Moscow with 84:75 and continues to fight for entry into the octave.
Maccabi was dreamy and scored a great win over CSKA Moscow 84-75 for game 26 of the EuroLeague. Scotty Wilbekin gave his own recital and led the Israelis to a victory that took them one step closer to the octave (11-12 their record). The hosts were in control right from the start, and they were 20 points ahead and ultimately achieved the victory they needed.
CSKA Moscow missed a huge chance for an even bigger win (it fell to 14-10) and left Tel Aviv empty-handed. The top scorer for the Russians was Ludberg with 17 points.
The race
The Russians made an impressive start to the game, allowing the hosts just two points in the first few minutes at a time when their own offensive function was much more organized. The hosts soon found their rhythm and brought the game to a draw, even taking the lead against the Russians. CSKA seemed to have suffered a blackout from the middle of the first period and went into the dressing room with +21 difference for the hosts.
The sequel belonged to Maccabi who, despite the fact that they saw CSKA getting closer, persevered and got a valuable victory given the very difficult continuation in the organization. At the same time, the hosts showed that they have put the bad bracket of defeats of the previous period behind them.
