Defeat in Munich for the Barça basketball team against the Bavarians who remain undefeated at home this season in the Euroleague. Joan Peñarroya's team suffered a 100-78 reverse thanks in the main part to Andreas Obast's excellent three point shooting for Bayern.

The home side led 77-58 with the fourth quarter to come. Into the final period and the Germans had a 26 point lead only for Barça to fight back and cut the difference to go down 100-78.
