Real Madrid-Basconia: Will the “queen” escape or will the Basques respond?

Act two in Madrid.

After her completely successful premiere in the series, the Real welcomes her again Baskonia (25/4, 22:00), for the second match of Euroleague Playoffs.

From the very first game of the two teams, the “queen” confirmed its superiority and did with too much comfort the 1-0. His players Chus Mateo they dominated from the first period, with the lead in their favor being in double digits for most of it and even escaping over 20 points, before forming the final 90-74.

Meanwhile, Real confirmed their good form as this was their fourth straight win in all competitions. As far as the racing part is concerned, Chus Mateo does not face problems and is expected to have all the players at his disposal.

On the other hand, Baskonia she did not manage to present herself competitively, knowing her second opponent’s defeat, after the one from her Unikaha with a score of 95-91, for the championship. However, his team Dusko Ivanovic it also has an important justification, as he was absent Chima Moneke. The Nigerian forward will likely not be available for the second leg in Madrid either.

This year, the two teams have already met four times with the “queen” to have won three and the Basques have won only once, this one for the 33rd matchday of the regular season of the Euroleague and in fact in Madrid with a score 95-91.
