Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul used a fantastic third quarter to beat FC Bayern Munich 78-71 in Round 19. Locking in on defense and finding the right go-to guys made the difference right after the break.
Fenerbahce led 46-39 at halftime, but despite outrebounding Bayern 19-11 until then, it had only gone once to the foul line in the entire first half. Coach Dimitris Itoudis's team came back to the floor with renewed aggressiveness. Bayern had made 5 of 12 three-pointers before the break but shot 0-for-8 in the third quarter when it also made just 3 of 7 two-point shots. Fenerbahce grabbed 17 rebounds in those 10 minutes to Bayern's 6.
