Too much Real for a Virtus who came out of the Euroleague away game, 98-86 at the end, but with the result in the bank for Madrid already at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Having lasted only one time, Bologna then suffered punches in the face from the Spaniards who were in crisis and with many absences, but no one noticed if you had Campazzo, Tavarez, Hezonja and singing company on the pitch. And to say that, apart from a record technician given to Banchi shortly after the ball, Vu also showed good things for a while, good aim, then slowly surrendered to the ground by a superior, more cynical and more solid team and full of immense talent.
The usual warrior spirit was shown by Shengelia, 20 points and 5 rebounds, 18 points for Cordinier and 15 points for Clyburn, author of the usual match: a nice outburst and then assorted recklessness to cancel out the good things done.
Real won the first half after two quarters with the attacks being the protagonists, 53-49 at halftime, with Vu managing to repel the minibreaks that the Blancos set up to try to escape. Cordinier did well at the start and showed his skills to those who already coveted him, then Clyburn and Diouf who were able to give depth to Bologna’s attack.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Vu scored a good 0-9 to which Madrid was able to react with Llull the stainless steel who put in playmaking and points to keep the Madrid team ahead. Upon returning, the storm arrived: Campazzo showed off all his knowledge by combining an infallible aim: too much for many and especially for Vu who literally raised her hands in front of the continuous shoulder strikes, and thus ended up on the ropes, slipping irremediably. Down 13 starting the last 10′, Bologna had only to save their honor. Belinelli, 10 points in a handkerchief, tried not to stretch the score too much but it was Real Madrid playing cat and mouse. With 3’40” to go it was 96-76 and the result was in the attic. Vu returns to the field on Friday for its difficult season in Europe: Panathinaikos arrives in Casalecchio.
