The mood is probably different in Istanbul, as they have only one win in the EuroLeague after four games. Recently there were three defeats in a row, including a bitter 20+ point defeat against Dubai. Accordingly, Fener has a lot to make up for with her fans. A 1-4 start in the EuroLeague would be fatal for the Turkish team.

However, the people of Munich must have traveled to the Bosphorus with a lot of self-confidence. On Tuesday, in a real defensive battle against Olimpia Milano, there was a completely deserved 64:53 win, especially due to the strong second half. In the first half, Bayern still had to struggle with the physicality of the Italians and didn’t give a good offensive impression either. During the break, head coach Gordon Herbert seemed to have found the right words, because the third quarter was simply strong at 18:7. Until the end of the game, the guests couldn’t find any solutions against the outstanding defense and Bayern finished the game at the free throw line!
