Panathinaikos Women — ALBA Berlin Women: 81:73, EuroCup Women

Panathinaikos Women beat ALBA Berlin 81-73 in a EuroCup fixture on 14 October 2026. The result keeps the Greek side in second place in the standings after six games. ALBA Berlin's recent run of defeats against German opposition adds another chapter to a difficult spell for the visitors. By then they had already lost four of their last five matches.

And here's the thing — the game was decided in the middle stages when Panathinaikos pulled away from a tight contest. The home side's six successful three-pointers made the difference in a match where both teams shot similarly from the field. Berlin managed eight beyond the arc but could not keep pace when the hosts tightened things up. The visitors never got going after that stretch.

Panathinaikos finished with 27 field goals and 18 free throws to build their lead. They also recorded 11 steals and 10 offensive rebounds, which kept Berlin's defence under pressure throughout. The visitors shot 26 field goals and 11 free throws but their 16 turnovers told the story. To be fair, Berlin had more blocks with four, but that could not compensate for the lost possessions.

The win moves Panathinaikos further clear in second place, while ALBA Berlin's record deteriorates. The home side now sits on eight points from six matches, two behind the leaders. Berlin's recent results show a pattern of losses — they fell to Keltern three times in April alone, and their last two defeats came in October.

What matters here is not the totals but the moments. Panathinaikos converted their opportunities when it counted, and Berlin's inability to find rhythm in the second half proved costly. The EuroCup demands consistency, and this result shows the gap between the teams at this stage.
