Unfortunately, Petrol Olimpija did not beat Estudiantes for the second time in this season.
In the 11th round of the 2017/18 FIBA Champions League regular season, the Spanish team triumphed in Ljubljana, leaving the home team with pretty slim chances for advancing to the next stage.
The opening quarter was the key in this match as Estudiantes have won that period by 26:17. Petrol Olimpija did try to get back in this game, however the visitors were simply better this evening so they have stayed in front until the end.
