Panathinaikos Falls Short in Munich Despite Strong Start

Panathinaikos suffered an 85-78 defeat to Bayern Munich, despite a strong performance in the first three quarters. The Greek team was hampered by the absence of key players such as Nan, Mitoglou, and Rogavopoulos, but controlled the game until the final period, where Bayern's defense proved decisive. Despite the efforts of Osman and Grant, Panathinaikos failed to maintain their lead and capitalize on opportunities. This defeat could prove costly for Panathinaikos's progress in the competition.
