Both coaches talk about the rebound, so it seems like one of the facets that both teams want to control…
For Chus Mateo, “we have to fight for the rebound, be very aggressive and get into the paint and generate good shots…in short, put in a lot of energy and give it our all in front of our fans”
For Jasikevicius, “I expect a great game between very good teams…you have to fight for all the balls, and go out with attitude, and not give anything away”
The whites trust their great defensive force, Walter Tavares, to prevail in the area and dominate the rebound, one of the great battles of this match…
Barça has been warming up on the Madrid court for a while, concentrating on the Euroleague duel…
The Barça team arrives at a good time, and aspires to take the victory and continue their good run against the whites, who hope to break that mini blaugrana dominance in the season
In the balance of this season, Barça dominates Madrid 2-1. The whites took victory in the Super Cup final (89-83) while the blaugranas prevailed in the first leg at the Palau (75-73) and recently, at the Wi Zink Center, in the Endesa League match (78-87)
An always interesting match between the two ‘Greats’ of Spanish basketball and who are now fighting to remain leaders in the Euroleague, which both share with 13 wins and 7 losses
Good afternoon everyone! In just over half an hour the Basketball Classic between Real Madrid and Barça will start, corresponding to the 21st day of the Euroleague, at the Wi Zink Center in Madrid
