Recall, in the first match between these teams, Bosna recorded a surprising high victory in Zetra with a score of 87:72, playing unexpectedly well.



The Students kept pace at the start of the second quarter (21:20), after which Murcia shifted into a higher gear and went into halftime with a +10 lead (43:33).



The Students played the third quarter catastrophically poorly, losing it by 19 points - 29:10. The fourth period was a mere formality, and in the end Murcia deservedly celebrated with a +24 margin.

Bosna's shortened roster, due to Miralem Halilović's injury and Tayler Persons' departure, was increasingly felt as the game progressed. On the other hand, home coach Sito Alonso used many players and demanded aggressive play from them.



The most efficient for Bosna was Audige with 14 points, West scored 13, and Kovačević added 11. For the winning team, Nakić stood out with 16, while Ennis scored 12 points.

After this defeat, Bosna is the second-placed team in Group A with a 3-2 record. Murcia is, as expected, first with four wins and one loss - that loss coming against Bosna.

In the next round of the FIBA Europe Cup, Bosna will host Rilski on November 19 at Sarajevo's Zetra, a team they easily defeated in their first head-to-head match played in Bulgaria with a score of 65:56.
