Olympiakos Piraeus will defend their Euroleague basketball title against Real Madrid in the final today after both teams recorded victories at London’s 02 Arena late Friday.
In a rematch of the climax to last year’s European season, Olympiakos pulled clear of CSKA Moscow in the first quarter and eventually won 69-52.
Real then came back from nine points down in the last quarter to overpower arch-rivals Barcelona 74-67 in the other semi-final.
Barcelona take on CSKA for third place this afternoon before Real and Olympiakos clash later in the evening.
