Beat the favorite. Prometheus beat Hapoel Tel Aviv

On Tuesday, November 14, BC Prometheus (Ukraine) and BC Hapoel Tel Aviv (Israel) met in the next match of the Eurocup regular season. The match played in Riga (Latvia) resulted in the victory of the Ukrainian team.

Pre-match predictions were not in favor of Prometheus. The team could not show the best results in the Eurocup. Before today’s match, Slobozhansky club had two wins and four defeats. At the same time, Hapoel started the EuroCup with four consecutive wins. The Israeli club suffered its first defeat just last week.

However, the first half of the match was an even fight. Neither team could gain a lead of more than 5 points. At first the Hapoel players took the lead, but then Prometheus took the lead. The score remained in favor of the Ukrainian team until the last minute of the second quarter. Meanwhile, the guest team managed to take the lead again and won the first half of the match with 48:49.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Ukrainians could not score for 2.5 minutes. Meanwhile, Hapoel was six points ahead. But then the Prometheus basketball players responded with three consecutive accurate three-pointers. All three were performed by Lipovy. He then scored his fourth long-distance try in the third quarter. Such accuracy of the Ukrainian basketball player helped Prometheus to break through and take the lead. In fact, Slobozhansky’s club increased its advantage to 12 points in the fourth quarter. Let’s draw attention to the very careful and tight play of “Prometheus” in defense. In this way, it was possible to reduce the offensive potential of Hapoel, one of the most productive teams in the Eurocup.

As a result, Prometheus won with a score of 98:89. Slobozhansky club went on a series of two defeats. The Ukrainian team has three wins in the current EuroCup.

Prometheus will play its next match in the Eurocup on Wednesday, November 22. The Titans will play at home again; They will host Italian Reyer Venezia.
