He Real Madrid returned to the Endesa League with win against MoraBanc Andorra (70-89) in a clash that began to break down in the final stretch of the third quarter, when he dried up the opponent in attack and was more precise in their forays to the basket.
Some of the problems that the set of Chus Mateo days ago against Panathinaikos in the Euroleague he repeated them on this occasion, the main one being the losses. The well-calibrated machine that has been the team throughout the course got stuck again in the fine work, as if the hangover or the break due to international commitments had rusted the gears.
Thus, those in white had 18 balls sent to limbo at half-time. An unusual and symptomatic statistic that left their dominance on the rebound to nothing, 22 for them at halftime compared to 13 for a rival who only had to take advantage of the ‘gifts’ and believe it a little.
Because there was some faith on the local side, which It started out cold and didn’t thaw for the entire first quarter. Punished by Walter Tavares and Guerschon Yabusele, both fluid in the paint, he managed to overcome the initial 3-10 to reach 12-15. However, a partial score of 0-6 brought them closer to ten points and they went to the bench after 10 minutes.
After the break, the host appeared on the court with a favorable 13-5 thanks to the determination of Marin Maric and the ease of Jean Montero. And the latter was eventually joined by Jerrick Harding, the other half of one of the best offensive pairings in the competition.
Almost by inertia, against a Real Madrid lost on the hardwood and very far from its best version, the first favorable income in the duel came for MoraBanc Andorra. He managed to enjoy that award until the intermission (41-37, min.20).
The second half began as the first ended, with Natxo Lezcano’s men comfortable and brave in their frenetic pace. Within that script they managed to go seven up and the punishment could have been more but, after reviewing it, the referees pointed out a foul by Facundo Campazzo on Maric prior to a triple converted by Montero. The play was a turning point because from that moment on, the Andorrans’ offensive momentum began to collide head-on with a rocky opponent who, not without difficulties, was biting into the disadvantage.
The basis of free shots, despite the fact that in that aspect the visiting team also foundered compared to other days, it achieved balance. And once in it, Yabusele and Facundo Campazzo did the rest to tip the balance and go from 49-42 to 55-68 with which the third act ended.
In the ten minutes until the end, the outsiders limited themselves to conceding little and pulling their own weight against an already surrendered MoraBanc Andorra that gave no option for trouble but that, during the morning, put the whites in front of the mirror and exaggerated some of them. of its few defects.
