Rokas Jokubaitis, left without teeth and without a final, surrounded himself with a wall of silence

In Friday’s semi-final, the Catalan club lost 66:78 to Real Madrid basketball players.

For the second year in a row, the Lithuanian “Barcelona” was left behind in the finals of the EuroLeague – last year, this team’s path to the finals was also blocked by the “Real” club.

At the end of the first half, 22-year-old R. Jokubaitis was greeted by thunderous applause at the “Žalgiris” arena. Although the Lithuanian’s first minutes on the field were not very successful, the picture changed at the beginning of the second half.

Emboldened and supported by the audience, R. Jokubaitis scored six points and added several assists.

The defender stopped his successful section himself – he was forced to be replaced by Sharo. In the middle of the second half, the boy from Mažeiki fell and hit the floor with his face.

The accident was not without consequences – the defender broke two front teeth.

In the third quarter, the Lithuanian returned to the floor, but in the second half of the match he remained scoreless.

Both he and Barcelona struggled after the break as Real took the lead and led Walter Tavares and Sergio Rodriguez on their way to the EuroLeague final.

At the end of the duel, R. Jokubaitis walled himself in silence and refused to communicate with media representatives.

In the final of the tournament, “Real” will face the “Olympiakos” team of Piraeus. At that time, Barcelona will fight for the third place with the Monaco club.

Both matches will be played on Sunday.
