Saras Jasikevicius' side began the match well, and their consistency at the basket and in the rebound was key to taking a good advantage (17-31) into the second period.
Barça continued dominating the game and extended the lead to 27 points at (22-49), before a late rally from the hosts saw them trail by 16 at the break (37-53).
Triple success
More success from the triple meant that the visitors could ease through the second half, and by the end of the game, the 74-92 scoreline was a fair reflection of play.
