Barcelona defeats Bayern Munich 95-69 to keep Euroleague playoff hopes alive

Friday, 17 April 2026, 22:07 · 1 min read

FC Barcelona's basketball team secured a commanding 95-69 victory over Bayern Munich at the Palau Blaugrana (their home arena in Barcelona) on Thursday, keeping their European season alive as they finish ninth in the Euroleague standings. The match was also a farewell tribute to veteran Serbian coach Svetislav Pesic, nearly 77 years old, who received a standing ovation and a framed tribute from club officials before tip-off in what was his final Euroleague home game. Will Clyburn led the scoring with 22 points and 7 rebounds, while Youssoupha Fall delivered a double-double of 14 points and 11 rebounds, with Barcelona now set to host Red Star Belgrade in a play-in round next Tuesday, with a potential Final Four berth against Olympiacos on the line.
