POST-GAME COMMENTS

Game recap: After suffering 5 consecutive defeats in the ABA League, FMP have managed to put an end to that awful streak. The Panthers were outstanding offensively this Friday evening and they just outgunned the rivals from Zadar. After all, scoring 94 points in a single game is not that easy...

Key moments: This match was actually close for three and a half quarters, as FMP were in front of Zadar by 75:72 in the 34th minute... However, then the home team increased the pace. Significantly. Until the end of the match, FMP have made 19 points, while Zadar have managed to score only 5.

Man of the match: Well, take a look at this. Filip Čović made a spectacular performance. He made 30 points and had 10 assists, which brought him a double-double achievement. But, believe it or not -  He did not have the highest index rating in FMP! Čović had the index rating of 32, while Dragan Apić had 34! Young center had 22 points and 7 rebounds this evening.    

Can't trick the stats: For some reason, Zadar just stopped playing in the last 6 minutes and therefore they suffered a heavy road defeat.
