Barcelona’s basketball players defeated Real Madrid in the third game of the final series of the ACB League with a score of 93:82 and thus became the 20th champion of Spain.
After two victories in Catalonia, Barcelona “broomed” Real in the final of the ACB League and took revenge for this year’s elimination in the semifinals of the Euroleague.
The Real Madrid team had a 41:38 advantage at halftime, but in the second half, Sarunas Jasikevicius’ team played more maturely and deservedly won this match as well.
The match was settled by Nikola Mirotic with points with two minutes to go when he managed to hit the basket with a foul by Hezonja, which allowed him to lead the Catalans to plus 10 (80:90).
The most efficient player in the winning team was Jan Vesely with 19 points, Mirotic had 14 points and five rebounds, and Jokubaitis with 13, Laprovittola with 11 and Kalinic with 10 points scored in double figures in the winning team.
At Real Madrid, Tavares stood out with 19 points and nine rebounds, but he did not have adequate help from his teammates, where Causeur with 11 and Yabusele with 10 points were in double figures.
By all accounts, this will be Nikola Mirotic’s farewell to the Barcelona jersey, and Red Star Meridianbet is also mentioned as his possible destination.
