Olimpia Milano Lose 80-75 to Panathinaikos

Olimpia Milano visited Panathinaikos in Athens in Week 8 of the Euroleague. The Greek side won the match 80-75. The defeat was Milano's sixth straight loss in the Euroleague, but in terms of team performance, head coach Poeta was pleased with the game.

In the first quarter, Wright's offensive activity put Milano ahead. In the second quarter, the points from Nunn and Hernangomez opened a gap for Panathinaikos, and the home team took a 12-point lead. Milano came back with Booker's free throws and Hall's three-pointers and went into the break with a close score.

In the third quarter, Milano improved their defense and went ahead with Bolmaro's basket. Panathinaikos entered the final quarter with Hayes-Davis waking up and regained control. In the last minutes, Diop kept his team in the game as the top scorer, but Booker's exit from the court after his fourth foul made Milano's task harder.

In the final minutes, Nunn's basket brought the margin to three points for Milano, but Mathews' last-second three-point attempt missed and the team lost the match. Olimpia fought hard in the closing stretch despite Panathinaikos regaining a measurable advantage.
