Once more the Catalans flirted with disaster, as the score was tied at 88 with 9 seconds left. Zaragoza had half a second left at the end of the game, Stevan Jelovac managed to shoot the ball but he couldn’t make a miracle.

Jelovac had in total 25 points for Zaragoza which remains in danger (8-19) and will try to avoid delegation to the second Spanish division. On the contrary Barcelona still has hopes even for the top of the standings.

Alexander Vezenkov with 21 points was the top scorer of the winners, while Rice and Stratos Perperoglou had in total 17 points.
