ABA League 10th round, Sunday, 15.11.2015:
Crvena zvezda Telekom - IGOKEA 81:87 (27:18, 21:23, 15:17, 18:29)
Game recap: To defeat Crvena zvezda Telekom in Belgrade you need to play some pretty good basketball... And Igokea were way beyond just good. They were amazing this Sunday! The boys led by Željko Lukajić scored 87 points against one of the best defensive teams in the league, while most of them came in the fourth quarter in which the visitors were simply perfect! Igokea have therefore climbed on 5-5 overall score, while Crvena zvezda Telekom have already suffered their second defeat at home court in this season!
Key moments: Two teams were all tied at 72:72, four minutes before the end. While then Vuk Radivojević started his show! Former captain of Crvena zvezda Telekom and now a player of Igokea scored 8 consecutive points for 72:80! Just to add that 6 out of those 8 points came after trademark 3pts shots of Radivojević - Way, way behind the line! Igokea successfully managed to keep the lead until the end of the game.
Man of the match: Definitely Vuk Radivojević. He scored those crucial three-pointers in the fourth quarter, while he finished the game with 20 points... The same as Miloš Komatina who also had a very important role in this game.
Can't trick the stats: The number of points in the last quarter decided the winner. Igokea made 29 in that period... Enough for a huge win in Belgrade.
