The great match of Spanish sport. A classic’. Good afternoon and welcome to the Football Club Barcelona – Real Madrid of the Endesa League. The second leg of the regular league of the main national basketball competition, the clash between eternal rivals and contenders for everything. The Palau Blaugrana will host another chapter of a rivalry that could extend… until the final stages of the Euroleague – with the Final Four in Berlin as the great chapter – and the Playoffs of the League itself. With the permission of more than important rivals such as Unicaja de Málaga, 2nd in the classification after those of Chus Mateo.
Is he sixth Barça-Madrid of the season. The domain is clearly white, since it took the two most relevant ones. By 80-90 in the Super Cup in Murcia and by 96-85 in the Copa del Rey final at the Martín Carpena in Málaga. They also won the first leg of the Endesa League (86-79), and the first leg of the EuroLiga (65-64). Barcelona only has one in its locker this season, that of the Palau Blaugrana in continental competition (83-78). But it could be different, with Barça much more in a hurry because they are playing for second in the league standings.
They come in opposite dynamics. The culés resisted against Maccabi Tel-Aviv in the Euroleague and Nico Laprovittola decided with a triple from long distance. Real Madrid dominated Baskonia, but a huge Markus Howard knocked them down in a tight end to the match. Even so, equality as the usual tone for a duel with interest… although perhaps somewhat blurred.
With a thousand incentives. Ricky Rubio will be there, back in a Barça-Madrid game. Mario Hezonja will be there, very angry after the last white games despite his level while living rumors of the future. And talent everywhere. We already have it in MARCA. With every little detail. It is a classic! Let’s start!
