2020/21 ABA League 2 Regular Season, Round 3, Monday, 16 October, 2020:
MLADOST - Rabotnički 89:73 (24:19, 25:9, 21:26, 19:19)
In the opening game of the ABA League Round 4, Mladost of Zemun have outgunned Rabotnički at the Zlatibor Regular Season Tournament.
Since Mladost arrived to the game with only 8 players on their roster and given the last two convincing performances by Rabotnički at the tournament, not many have expected such an outcome and an easy win by Mladost, but it happened anyway.
Rabotnički have started the game well and were up by 7 points (7:14) in the fourth minute already. However, Mladost bounced back and with a 10:0 run they got in front. However, the crucial Mladost run followed between the finish of the first and the first half of the second quarter, when they went on a 14:0 run, converting the 19:19 score into a 33:19 lead. After that, Rabotnički did not manage to bounce back again and make it anybody’s game.
In the end, the final score was 89:73.
The two sides are now tied in the middle of the standings with 2 wins and just as many defeats on their records.
