Panathinaikos lost 71-96 to the mighty Enisei indoors in Agios Thomas for the fifth game of the Euro Cup women’s basketball and was essentially left out of the tournament.
The “clover” is now at 1-4 and wants a defeat of Hatay from Polkovice and his own victory with the Turkish team in the last match with +32, in order to claim the qualification to the next phase as one of the four best third.
If, however, Enisei is defeated by Polkovice and Panathinaikos wins the last match, there is a triple tie at 2-2, with the “greens” having a disadvantage.
A big “wound” is Enisei’s dominance near the racket with 48 points in total in the absence of Smith. Reed with 27 points was the best of the hosts, with Stach and Holmes having 14 points each.
For Enisei, Patsurina stood out with 23 and Naird with 19 points.
The ten minutes: 17-28, 33-51, 57-78, 71-96
Panathinaikos (Kapogianni): Reed 27 (10 rebounds), Ziaka, Stamati, Lymoura 6 (6 aces), Kotoula, Vincilaiou 8, Boudouri, Grigoropoulou 2, Stach 14, Mylonaki, Holmes 14, Chatzinikolaou
