He Real Madrid, after losing their first game of the season last weekend against Unicaja, was reunited with victory against a very weak Alba from Berlin (99-75), bottom of the Euroleague and who has not won a game against the whites throughout the 21st century. It was not a brilliant meeting of the boys from Chus Mateo, but the Madrid squad is so broad and brilliant that, even on its thickest nights, it is capable of crushing almost anyone. He gave the Berliners no option and added his ninth victory in nine games.

The duel between leader and bottom did not promise much chicha at first. However, it was worth seeing in the first minutes a physique that overshadowed that of Tavaresimplacable the Chadian Khalifa Koumadje when it comes to dunking, he is above the Cape Verdean (the official Euroleague website places him three centimeters above the Madrid player, 223 by 220). Against the impact of the pivot he emerged Hezonjavery in tune in recent weeks, author of eleven points in the opening quarter that gave the locals the first advantages.

It looked like a fight between a boxer and a newborn. The Germans, with a lot of fear in their bodies, were thrown when they hit the muscle and aggressiveness of Madrid, with the team’s desire Chus Mateo to take off as soon as possible and make your audience enjoy it. But the visiting game was so disjointed that Madrid, at times, seemed to be infected by the chaotic rhythm of its rival. Despite everything, the clairvoyance of Campazzoeight assists in the first half, allowed the locals to reach halftime with an 11-point lead.

The heroics of Johannes Thiemannnew world champion with Germany, prevented the score from being embarrassing for the Berliners, because although Madrid was not having a great game, its basketball was not very fluid, the difference in quality was more than evident, even abysmal. Musawho had not played a minute in the entire first half, put on his boots against the weak German defense and the numbers did not stop growing for the whites until the final whistle.
