Valencia (AP) - The basketball players of FC Bayern Munich did not manage to qualify early for the playoffs in the Euroleague.
On the one hand, the Bundesliga runner-up at Valencia Basket was defeated 76:83 (33:46), on the other hand, the Munich team received no support from the competition.
With 19 wins from 31 games, as the fifth-best team, they still have a good chance of progressing.
After a concentrated start, the guests made mistakes again and again.
