Even in the sixth act, therefore, the field factor resists. The start predictably in favor of the hosts, who pushed by their own fans find a +5 but the guests don’t take long to get into the game and close the first 10′ ahead thanks to Voigtmann’s basket from beyond the half pitch on the siren. The reaction of the team coached by Sergio Scariolo is there and with an excellent second quarter the team from Emilia goes ahead 49-43 at halftime. Upon returning to the court, the advantage reaches double figures and, despite an attempt to comeback by Milan, who find -3 after a triple from Napier, we arrive at the final 10′ with Virtus ahead by 8. The tiredness begins to be felt in the legs and in the head of the players of the Milanese team, which scores only 7 points in the final quarter. Bologna spreads and closes 85-66, thus dragging the series to game 7. The best scorer of the evening is Belinelli with 14 points, while Melli and Voigtmann in double figures are not enough at Olimpia.
