There will be Game 3 in the semifinal clash between FMP and Partizan NIS! The squad from Železnik made a huge upset by beating the Belgrade powerhouse, so the overall score in the series is now tied at 1-1.

The game itself was very exciting. FMP have been in front during most of the match, while the hosts had a double-digit lead before the last quarter - 61:50! Still, Partizan NIS then increased the level of their defense and even managed to take the lead at one point, but the black and whites could not keep up with their rivals at the very end.

Ognjen Dobrić turned out to be a hero of FMP. He scored a valuable three-pointer on 30 seconds before the end for 76:72, while he then scored both free throws to write down the final score - 79:74.

Game 3 is scheduled for Wednesday, June 1, with Partizan NIS being the host of that match.
