ATHENS, Jan. 4 (Xinhua) -- Greek hosts Panathinaikos beat Turkey's Anadolu Efes 90-79 in the 16th round of the basketball Euroleague on Thursday at the Athens Olympic sports complex OAKA.
In their previous encounter in Istanbul, the Greens had also walked away with victory after a tight finish by 82-81.
The outcome enhances the Greek team's possibilities to secure the ticket to the final eight as they now rank second behind CSKA Moscow.
Lagging at the bottom Anadolu Efes remain with slim chance to advance to the play-offs.
Next week Panathinaikos will play against Barcelona and Anadolu Efes against Crvena Zvezda. Enditem
