There Madrid managed to overcome a 0-2 loss in the eliminatory with three victories in a row, embarrassing tangana in the second of the duels.

Those incidents led to a total of nine suspension matches for four players, but of them only Kevin Punter was available on this occasion due to injuries to locals Guerschon Yabusele and Gabriel Deck and the departure of visiting Mathias Lessort in the summer.

However, peace reigned from the beginning, at least as far as personal treatment was concerned. Because when it came time to score points, both parties did not grant each other any truce. Dzanan Musa stood in front of the host, scoring 11 of the first 14 of his own. And Bruno Caboclo responded in the other basket with 7 of the initial 12 for those in black, cheered on by a large presence of his supporters in the stands.

That individual role was diluted to make way for the collective. When that happened, shined even more Real Madrid. Two consecutive triples by Facundo Campazzo and Walter Tavares’ burst into the paint allowed the team to go seven ahead at the end of the first half (26-19, min.10).

Partizan pulled his head out of the hole to stay within a shot of ten, but until the break they did not allow the rival to go further (48-36, min.20).

After passing through the locker room, Caboclo with two triples briefly kept the Belgrade team afloat. However, he could not avoid the subsequent collapse, caused by almost three minutes of offensive drought. Real Madrid took advantage of that stretch, measuring their attacks well, to escape with a bag of 25 points. Although there were still 14 minutes left, the match was already decided.
