Halcon Avenida fought like lions and led for much of the game but came
unstuck in the fourth quarter and lost to Teo Vilnius, 74-68, in the EuroLeague Women on Friday.

The victory has given the Lithuanian team a 2-0 sweep of their eight finals play-off tie and propelled them into the quarter-finals.

A strong first-half display allowed TEO Vilnius to ease to victory over Halcon Avenida on Tuesday, giving them an early advantage in the best-of-three Eighth-Final play-offs.

Ebony Hoffman was the star performer for the Lithuanian hosts as the 24-year-old American center drained 18 points and grabbed eight boards in a largely one-sided first leg.

Halcon Avenida ended their Group B campaign in style with a 70-65 win at the expense of MiZo Pecs whom they will join in the next phase.

The Spanish side trailed 51-49 at the end of the third quarter but then Clara Bermejo Moreno got the first bucket of the final period to level things up.
