Game recap: FMP have quickly recovered from their first round defeat on the road against strong Cedevita team and they have scored their first victory of the season in their first home court win – against MZT Skopje Aerodrom in Belgrade. The home side took control in the second part of first half and afterwards calmly brought the game to an end. They have now tied themselves with the Skopje squad in the standings with one victory and defeat apiece after two games played.

Key moments: In 16th minute of the game the margin was still only four points in favour of the home side (39:35). However, a 5:0 run followed in the next minute that took FMP to +9 and they never let the opponents come close again until the end of the clash.

Man of the match: Young gun Aleksa Radanov had a tremendous contribution to FMP’s victory this time. In 28 minutes that he spent on court he scored 15 points, had 7 rebounds and 3 assists, but the most astonishing is the fact that his team went up by no less than 29 points in the minutes that he spent on court. He is our man of the match.

Can't trick the stats: FMP’s dominance on the glass is what decided the winner of the game this time. The home side had 39 rebounds and the guests only 24.
