Khimki will meet Lietuvos Rytas in the final of the Eurocup after both sides won their semi-finals in Turin.

Russian side Khimki stayed always slightly ahead of Spanish outfit Bilbao as a 79-73 victory saw them make it to the championship game.

The Russians led from the second basket till the end and were thankful for the contribution of Carlos Delfino who had some massive baskets in an 18 point performance.

Lithuanian giants Lietuvos Rytas had earlier become the first team to qualify for the final with a 73-68 victory over Hemofarm.

However, the Serbian side had looked at one stage as if they were on their way to a famous come-from-behind victory when they came back from an 11-point deficit to level the match.

With 90 seconds to go the score was 63-63 but then Mindaugas Lukauskis downed a massive three pointer to put Rytas back in charge.

Marijonas Petravicius was their key man on the night as he poured in 23 points.
