Anadolu Efes edged Real Madrid in a late thriller at Sinan Erdem Dome and closed out the series to advance to the Final Four.

In a hard-fought battle, Efes led by as many as 12 points (57-45), but Real came back back and tied the game (80-80).

Krunoslav Simon hit a crucial three-pointer for Efes late in the contest (83-80), Sergio Llull missed the game-tying three-pointer for Real and the Turks sealed the deal from the free-throw line (88-83).

Anadolu Efes won the series (3-2) and will now go on to face CSKA Moscow in a rematch of the 2019 EuroLeague Championship Game.
