Ettore Messina (Haggai Michaeli)
The 7th round in the Euroleague started already today (Wednesday) with the Italian derby of the factory. If it used to be Siena and Milan, now the big battle was between that Milan and Virtus Bologna, which celebrated the end of a serious digging battle and recovered from the home loss to Lyon-Villarban with a prestigious 59:64.
The host led by double digits in the first quarter, but the team from Bologna recorded a tremendous second quarter and achieved the advantage that grew in the third quarter as well. For Ettore Messina and his team it was the fourth loss of the season against three victories, the winner is in the same balance (4:3) in the top European factory.
The inexhaustible Milos Teodosic scored 15 points (including 4 assists), Jordan Mickey Ballet with 14 points and 5 rebounds, the experienced Tournica Shangleja added 12 points of his own for the visitors from Bologna. On the other hand, Niccolo Meli was perhaps one of Messina’s bright spots with 9 points and 11 rebounds.
