Real Madrid v La Laguna Tenerife: the opening match of the Costa del Sol Tournament, at 8.00 pm on Realmadrid TV
Pedro Martínez’s side are playing their third pre-season friendly in Marbella.
Real Madrid are taking part in the Costa del Sol Tournament once again this year. In the 15th edition of the tournament, they will face La Laguna Tenerife today and Unicaja tomorrow. Our team will be aiming for their seventh title in this tournament, of which they are the reigning champions and the most successful side (2012, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022 and 2025).
They make their debut this afternoon in Marbella against the Tenerife side in another demanding match for our lads, their third of the pre-season following the games against Breogán and Baskonia, in which they displayed a high level of attacking play, scoring 110 and 121 points respectively. Pedro Martínez’s side are building up their rhythm and finding their form ahead of next week’s EuroLeague Super Cup.
Today’s opponents have played one more pre-season match: yesterday’s opening fixture of the tournament, which they lost to Unicaja (80–76). Prior to that, they recorded a win against Gran Canaria and a defeat against Casademont Zaragoza. La Laguna Tenerife retains the core of the squad that took them to the league final last year, with Huertas and Shermadini as their leading lights, alongside new signings Happ, López-Arostegui, Artus Kurucs and Guy, who make up for the departures of Mills, Guerra, Sastre and Yebo. This will be Lakovic’s first season in charge following the Vidorreta era.
