A solid match in the Arena!
Crvena zvezda welcomes the FMP team that has not celebrated more than 40 tied matches against today’s rival at the Belgrade Arena on Sunday at 7:30 p.m.
The result after the first part of the game is 42:34 for the champion of the regional competition.
Today, the red and whites are without the help of several international players, including Jago dos Santos, who is watching the match from the stands.
More precisely, the diminutive Brazilian was photographed with his better half enjoying himself on the couch under the south stand of the biggest Serbian hall.
In addition to Jag, there is no Mike Daum in today’s match, but Izea Kenan, so the red and white will have to improvise with the position of playmaker.
FLOW OF THE SWORD
Both teams entered the game rather uninspired, the red and whites allowed only two points in the opening five minutes, but the home team, who were not in a very good mood, did not manage to make much use of it.

Nevertheless, the ABA League champion gained a double-digit advantage relatively quickly, but soon the Panthers were only two possessions behind at the beginning of the second quarter. Also, Nemanja Nedović’s three personal goals in the early stages of the match were problematic for the home team.
