Anadolu Efes became the EuroLeague 2021-22 season champions, winning the title two times in a row.

 

Anadolu Efes beat Real Madrid 58-57 in the final game played in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, and became the 2021-22 EuroLeague champions. Vasilije Micic was selected as Final Four MVP.

 

Vasilije Micic played for 37:28 in the final game and had 23 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists. Tibor Pleiss scored 19 points and 7 rebounds in 31:34 minutes of game time. Real Madrid finished the first quarter 1 point ahead of Anadolu Efes (15-14). In the second quarter, Real Madrid scored a 5-point advantage and closed the first half 34-29. In the third quarter, a fierce battle started, and the difference was down to 2 points. The third quarter ended 42-40 to the advantage of Rela Madrid, showing the EuroLeague audience they are the closest side to the title.

 

Anadolu Efes did not give up the fight in the last quarter of the match and won the game 57-58, by just 1 point. That 1-point crowned Anadolu Efes as the 2021-22 champions of the EuroLeague. Anadolu Efes, the reigning champions of the previous season, became the third team to win the EuroLeague title for two years in a row.

 

Ergin Ataman became the second head coach to win two consecutive EuroLeague titles.

 

Basketball fans and the EuroLeague viewers, we completed a season in which we watched wonderful games and experienced great joy as the audience. Next season, we will be back here, together with you, with the same excitement and enthusiasm.

 

Until then, goodbye.
