Madrid bites the dust in front of Valencia’s devilish rhythm

The locals had a huge galaxy of stars in attack and they were Moore, Taylor, hunter and Thompson A real pain in the ass for outside defenders. Moreover, the internal muscles it provides Pradella, Sima and Reverse They ended up worrying the visitors, who were drowned out in the final quarter by a Valencian storm. Real Madrid lacked poise in the last minutes, more calm and fewer players who wanted to wage war alone, such as Campazzois somewhat unclear in these first months of the season. Victory ended up being an illusion, and Valencia, after two successive defeats, celebrated their return to victory.

As expected, the match took place, at least initially, at the frenetic pace that Valencia always suggests, and was directed very well by two lightning bolts in Monteiro and Moore. However, Real Madrid performed very well in space and runners, with Campazzo, Deck and Lyles posing the biggest threats to the locals. The eggs flew, and Hezonga began to perform his devilish dances, and the advantage, though slim, always belonged to the boys of Scariolo. The jigsaw changed in the last possessions of the first quarter when after a push from the Oranges it was capped by a great comment from Taylorallowed a change of direction (22-21).

The Hoops became Real Madrid’s enemy, firing all their shots, while Valencia reached an enviable pace thanks to the talent of Moore And success in the ever-reliable Reuvers shot. Lin began to defend the white ring with great enthusiasm, but Pradella’s three-pointers, two in a row, made the electronic approach impossible. efforts Lyles The Oranje’s drive threatened, until a brilliant pass from Monteiro ended in a brilliant goal Reverse About the giant Tavares. A brilliant work was followed by a Thompson hat-trick from far away that put Real Madrid on the line (45-38).

ScarioloImmediately upon his return from the dressing room, in an unusual event, he took over the review table so that the referees could show the chaotic final seconds of the first half, as the Italian looked for some collective fouls with the clock of possession. It remained just an anecdote, looking like the coach’s strategy for the future, although his gesture greatly inflamed the stands of Valencia, who celebrated so vociferously that Montero’s hat-trick had resumed hostilities.

Lyles continued his amazing performance, and the Canadian scored from all positions with skill befitting the greatest, but if Real Madrid wanted to aspire to victory, it had to involve many players. Quite the opposite of Valenciaa choral entity with endless hunger who maintained his supremacy with great honor. Finally, Sima made a huge impact with important dives and defensive moves all around, while Moore with another very difficult hat-trick filled the local oxygen tank for the final term (67-60).

For no apparent reason, Real Madrid stopped resisting the Orange attacks, and was easy prey for the talented men Taylor and Pradella. Campazzo seemed to deny reality, and with five consecutive points, he reduced the gap to seven points when his tally was 12 points. It is a mirage in any case, as Valencia pressed and pressed until they succeeded in completely reducing the size of their enemies.
