Real Madrid 90-65 Breogán (April 17, 2022) - The Stitch

Balsamic, which has balm or qualities of such. Balm, second meaning of the royal academy: consolation, relief.

Today's game against Breogán was that: consolation and relief after so many injuries.

Laso said that we had to start well from minute 1. And, I added, and almost any madridista who saw or heard him, "and if possible until minute 40".

Because the problem, Pablo knows very well, is the endgame more than the beginnings.

We got 15-6 in just 6 minutes, fulfilling Laso's request. It's a joy when the team shoots and goes in, we've had quarters lately that we forget that particular circumstance. 26-13, we doubled the visitors at the end of the first quarter.

Since we needed a +40 lately to get us into the fourth quarter with a chance, we were on the right track. Playing balanced, zen, scoring two, three, assists, good defenses from time to time, comfort.

The next target was +20.

Breogán had lost his Muse, playing denied. A fundamental player for them.

We scored the maximum 37-16, before a reaction from Breogán that didn't go much further. Laso stopped the game to ask for calm, patience, not to play the best way for them. And it worked.

Yabusele and Deck signed spectacular plays, signing a final 14-2 run, for a 53-29 advantage at the break. Balsamic also that Randolph left well applauded. He was signing a good game. https://twitter.com/RMBaloncesto/status/1515649168378941443

The third quarter began more closely contested, with Madrid finishing better.

Abalde was giving a new game understanding clinic, and little by little the +30 would be achieved.

The game was placid and allowed to stay for a while looking at the tiers, the duo of the farra, with their face of good people in the pavilion.

+30 would come, signing 77-45 at the end of the third quarter.

It had to be enough (I even dared to tweet it) https://twitter.com/RMBaloncesto/status/1515656142294298624 < p style="text-align: justify;">Nuñez left with 6 minutes left, he served little, better the young visitor Ubal.

Abalde maintained +30: 81-51. Then +28: 85-57. Referees fell in love with Instant Replay and we saw more replays than the game. Also, we were on our way to losing the last quarter (it would 13-20)

Time to look at the statistics: good game by Deck, also by William-Goss, victory by +25 at the end.

Victory. Balsamic.
