Victory in the first game of the U League

Real Madrid began their title defense in the U League with a victory. The players coached by Javier Juárez overcame Valencia Basket in the first game of the championship, held at the pavilion of Ciudad Real Madrid. Ömer and Andrej F. were key to our team’s triumph, as they started the game with greater intensity to secure an early lead.

Valencia Basket tried to close the gap, but Madrid defended solidly and showed great accuracy in two-point shooting (64.3%) to maintain the advantage (23-12, min. 10). The dynamic remained unchanged in the second quarter. The madridistas maintained their intensity, controlled the rebounds (28 compared to Valencia’s 17), and, with a great team effort, went into halftime with the lead (45-31, min. 20).
