A basket at the end of overtime by Yam Madar caused the team’s first defeat this Thursday. Real Madrid in the current Euroleague campaign (100-99) and left the 33 points scored by the Argentine Facundo Campazzo against the Fenerbahce turcohis personal record to date in continental competition.
The first quarter seemed custom designed for the point guard. Campazzo walked around the court doing what he wanted and, without any failure in his seven attempted shots, he left 16 points along the way, the same as the Turkish team scored in the opening ten minutes.
Real Madrid was also very superior in rebounding, a section where they captured 12 to 3 of the rival, that general dominance forged a 16-29 that clearly showed the intention to resolve the confrontation as soon as possible, if that was possible against a dangerous rival who also played at home, where I still didn’t know defeat.

The second act began with a lethargic stretch in which only 11 points were scored in 4 minutes, 7 of them from the free throw line. Fenerbahce stretched first against a blocked visiting side that had nothing coming of it. A 10-0 partial put the Turkish team within two ).
After passing through the locker room, the host approached again, so much so that he was one point away. Two baskets in a row from Campazzo and later a 3+1 from Sergio Llull and a 2+1 from Deck once again stretched the rope and put Real Madrid on the path to success. The basket that allowed Campazzo to certify his personal record, with a quarter still to play, served to reach the barrier of ten at the end of the third leg of the match.

Chus Mateo’s team therefore faced the decisive ten minutes with less calm than usual, which helped them to be alert to preserve the cushion for which they had had to fight so hard. However, the one at home still had energy left.
An 8-0 run, with six points from Scottie Wilbekin, activated Fenerbahce and turned the outcome into a minefield, even more dangerous when Edy Tavares saw the fifth foul with three minutes and twenty seconds still to play. And if that was not enough Nick Calathes and Marko Guduric scored two consecutive triples that brought ecstasy to the stands (80-82, min.38).
The local team was able to take the lead with a comfortable shot that Guduric missed and in the next attack Gabriel Deck was forced to play a forced triple at the possession horn. He didn’t score, but Rudy Fernández captured the rebound. He immediately converted Campazzo to leave the +3 with 33 seconds left.
A layup from Calathes once again put fear in the body, slightly scared when the Argentine guard did not miss in his two free throws after a foul. There remained, however, a triple the Wilbekinwhich with 11 seconds left put the first tie after 0-0 and took the face-to-face match to extra time.
???? What an ending!

The extra time started with a triple Llull, already in the club of scorers of 600 three-pointers in the Euroleague. The good omen seemed to remain at that against an opponent who managed to keep up the pace until Vincent Poirier contributed in the paint, widening the difference.
Mario Hezonja, with only one success in two trips to the free throw line, could not close the duel. In the other basket Guduric did not forgive to make it 98-99. That, a great defense that forced the loss of Campazzo and the final basket by Yam Madar ended up punishing Real Madrid with its first defeat.
