Real Madrid claimed their 10th win in Liga U after beating Joventut away on matchday 13. Javier Juárez's men outclassed their opponents and got the win on track between the second and third quarters with a 50-21 run. Andrej (21 points and 31 in PIR) and Egor (18 and 26) were the standout performers in a team in which everyone scored.
After an even first quarter (14-20), the Madridistas stepped up a gear in the second. They maintained the offensive tempo of the start, with a distributed scoring (Serigne, with 9 points, was the best in attack at half-time), but they pulled it together at the back and put up a great defence (24-41, min.20).

In 20 minutes, they had made it 35-70 at the end of the third quarter. Egor and Andrej, both above twenty in PIR, led the team to another victory away from home (44-92, min.40).
