Fenerbahce – Real Madrid 66-51: Turkish counterattack against the backdrop of the octave
Great night, great performance for Fenerbahce, who continued their counterattack with a triumph over Real Madrid (66-51) to finally enter the Eight of the EuroLeague regular season.
At the beginning of the season, she was laughed at. She, of course, gave the same rights. However, now Fenerbahce is a playoff-level team and proved it on Tuesday evening (8.2.). He defeated Real Madrid (66-51) in a postponed EuroLeague game and finally entered the Octave’s game against the backdrop of the playoffs in which, if he enters, he will be a very tough nut to crack.
The Istanbul team climbed to 12-10 (9-3 home and 3-7 away), which means nine wins in the last ten games. He plays without Nando de Colo, Marial Sayok, Danilo Bartel, Jan Veseli, but he manages fabulously. At 20-4 they fell, on the other hand the Madrid, who have 13-0 at home and 7-4 away from Madrid. Gabriel Deck, Adam Hanga and Jeffrey Taylor were left out of the squad, while Pablo Lasso watched as his team endured a period of decline ahead of Friday’s (2/11) Clasico with Barcelona at the Wizink Center.
The race
Fenerbahce were victorious from the start and ended the season leading thanks to their effectiveness in attack (4/6 two points, 3/7 three points, 2/3 shots) and strong defense with 11 points (19-8). that kept the Madrid on 3/17 shots (1/7 two points, 2/10 three points).
The game didn’t resemble a regular season game but a Final Four game apart from Yul – Tavares the Spaniards didn’t find any solutions in any other player and the 27-17 half was shocking without Fenerbahce being much brighter.
It was just that her defense was at an unrealistic level and the 17 points she conceded in 20 minutes seemed like one of the most important accolades in her modern history with the organization. And as Real tried to make the last try and reduced to 50-39 in 32′, Akpinar set the big three to 56-41 that set the field on fire.
THE REFEREES: Radovic, Vilius, Viklitsky
