Don't blame yourself if you had forgotten that Real Madrid was playing this Tuesday.
It is a four-day event that will be held at the same time as the three European competitions where 12 ACB teams participate.
There will be two games in four days that for some, like the whites, it will be more like eight in 16. In this, the third of the series, they sweated more than the score says (65-84) to beat Coosur Real Betis.
[Narration and statistics (65-84)]
Curro Segura's
team
suffered
a bit like Estu in the last derby: it was to close his eyes for a moment, chain a couple of errors at the wrong time, and see that the game had already gotten out of hand.
After a good first half -more in the fight than in the lyric-, led by a sensational
Youssou Ndoye
(11 points, 10 rebounds), the Verdiblancos saw how in 10 minutes of the game, between the third quarter and the last , the scoreboard went from a tight 43-44 to a 53-74 from which there was no way out.
And although it is true that Real Madrid returned to give a twist in defense after the break, the difference with respect to the first half, which ended with a dry 31-31, was that it did manage to plant a pike in the paint.
Walter Tavares
, with 9 points in the third period (13 and 11 rebounds in total), began to make a difference on the inside game of Betis, which until that moment had managed to contain him.
8/12 in triples
Of course, it is easier to close the area if Real Madrid does not score from outside (4/16 in the first half).
In the third quarter,
Facundo Campazzo
found the keys (9 points, 9 assists) and Tavares, the hoop.
With their particular dynamic duo, Real Madrid gave a stretch that ended in a military walk in the last act: with 12 points from
Sergio Llull
and 8/12 from triples, the whites left Betis with no answer option.
With this victory, Real Madrid remains undefeated co-leader of the Endesa League with 6 victories in 6 games, the same as Iberostar Tenerife.
A very different face from the one he shows in the Euroleague, where he has only added one win in five before visiting the leader, Bayern Munich, this Thursday.
And if you've forgotten, don't worry, you'll have the whole season to get used to it.
Of course, take a pencil and paper because next week they will begin to recover postponed games from different days.
