Río Breogán defeated Bàsquet Girona 115-92 on Saturday, October 10, 2026, at the Pazo Provincial dos Deportes in Lugo, securing its best start to a Liga Endesa season in club history with three consecutive victories, MARCA reported.
Francis Alonso Leads First-Half Barrage as Breogán Dominates Girona
Playing in front of Spain national team coach Chus Mateo in the stands, Luis Casimiro’s squad overwhelmed Girona in the opening 20 minutes. MARCA noted that Breogán tallied 61 points and nine three-pointers before halftime—marking the club’s second-highest scoring first half in history, just behind the 63 points it scored against Cáceres in 2002. Francis Alonso set the tone early by knocking down his initial attempts to build a 23-14 lead, finishing the night with 27 points and six three-pointers while earning 30 valuation credits, according to Mundo Deportivo.
Forty-One-Year Record Matched with Third Century-Mark Outing
Infobae reported that the victory brought Breogán’s record to 3-0, matching a Liga Endesa milestone set 41 years prior by Real Madrid during the 1985-86 season. Back then, the Madrid side opened its campaign with 104, 101, and 113 points in its first three fixtures. Breogán mirrored that feat by scoring 110 points against Joventut in the opener, 101 against Manresa, and 115 against Girona.
Tevin Brown and Balanced Scoring Seal the Victory in Lugo
While Alonso provided the early perimeter spark, American guard Tevin Brown orchestrated the secondary surge. Mundo Deportivo detailed how Brown, alongside Alonso and Dominik Mavra, sparked a decisive 25-8 run that left Girona struggling to secure defensive rebounds or cut down on turnovers. Brown finished with 20 points and 3 assists in just 20 minutes of play, anchoring a team effort where Mavra added 15 points and Rasir Bolton chipped in 11.
Girona Struggles with Turnovers and Interior Defense
Moncho Fernández attempted to halt Breogán’s momentum by calling a timeout early in the second period as his side fell behind 36-24, but the stoppage failed to stem the tide. Girona committed seven turnovers in the first 13 minutes alone, allowing the hosts to stretch their lead to 23 points (55-32) before the break. Jassel Pérez and Sergi Martínez led Girona with 18 and 14 points respectively, while Mac McClung added 20 off the bench, but the visitors could not overcome their early defensive lapses.
Next Matchup on the Liga Endesa Calendar
Río Breogán carries its undefeated record forward to the fourth round of the Liga Endesa season, while Bàsquet Girona looks to rebound in its upcoming domestic fixture following a busy week that also included a FIBA Europe Cup victory over Dinamo București.
