On Friday, May 23, the two semifinals of the EuroLeague Final Four took place. Following these games, the finalists of the tournament have been decided.

Details: In the first semifinal, Fenerbahce faced Panathinaikos. Despite the Greek side being the favorites, the Turkish team took control of the game and secured a victory with a score of 82:76.

In the second semifinal, Olympiacos went up against Monaco. According to bookmakers, the Greek club was considered the clear favorite. After a tied first quarter, Monaco seized the initiative and confidently closed out the game—78:68. This came as a shock, especially since Olympiacos had odds of 1.3 for a win.

Fenerbahce has now reached the EuroLeague final for the fourth time in club history. Previously, the Turkish side won once and lost twice in the championship game. As for Monaco, this will be their first-ever appearance in the final. Their best result before was a bronze medal in the 2022/23 season.

The third-place game this season will take place on Sunday, May 25, at 17:00 Central European Time. The championship showdown between Monaco and Fenerbahce will tip off at 20:00 CET.
