Real Madrid – Barcelona 75-85: Kuric and Sanli sign a double in the Liga Endesa clasico
Barcelona were the big winners of the Clasico in the Liga Endesa, beating Real Madrid 85-75 away in a game awarded to the emblematic leader of the “Queen”, Felipe Reges.
With the pink card, Barcelona left the headquarters of Real Madrid, who prevailed 85:75 for the postponed Clasico in the Liga Endesa. The game was supposed to take place a few days ago, but the coronavirus cases led to its postponement.
The WiZink Center had great moments when he was stopped in the ninth minute of the game (he was wearing the number 9 on his jersey) and the emblematic leader of the “Queen”, Felipe Reges, was honored. In complete adoration, Reges thanked the people and described the Real fans as the best in the world.
In the game, the first ten minutes clearly belonged to Real, but the second ones had the seal of Barcelona, which, with a counterattack, took a ten-point lead and closed the previous ten minutes. The Madrilenians made wrong decisions in attack, they didn’t move the ball properly, which the Blaugrana took full advantage of with Kuric and Sanli.
The hosts didn’t want to leave the game so easily and they didn’t. Four minutes before the end they shortened to two (66:68) and finally went into the game. Barcelona reacted, didn’t let Real’s rhythm get carried away and achieved a great but difficult – as it turned out – double.
Top scorers for the hosts were Tavares with 12 points and Yul with 11, while for Barcelona Sunley had 17 and Kuric. Mirotic is also very good with 13 points. Rudy Fernandez was sent off with 16.5” with two technical penalties.
