The Andalusian team ended a streak of 26 wins in a row of whites in ACB in a meeting that had very face in the first part with +19, but in which life was complicated with a serious part of those of Chus Mateo (38-50).
Three dejected soldiers and one recovered for the cause. Thus summed up the afternoon of Ibon Navarrowho lost in combat Tyson Pérezhe saw the faces of Few y Kendrick Perrybut he was fully pardoning Dylan Osetkowskithat he took his right to his coach after discarding him doubly in the Movistar Arena for having closed your signing for the Partizán. From the most absolute nothing, the German became the player with more minutes of Unicaja (24:36) and the MVP of the match (21 points and 17 valuation).
A great Mario Hezonja (18 points, 6 rebounds and 20 valuation) was not enough for Real Madrid that rolled down and gave everything in the second half to get more than living until the last possession. An unsportsmanlike Dzanan Musa About Perry, who filled his blood face, before Usman Remix I tied the whites. Two free throws for Alberto Díazboth inside and serve 7 tenths for Unicaja and fourth clash with show served in the Malaga pavilion. Even so, remarkable action of the Bosnium (15 points and 12 valuation).
Unicaja broke out as a cyclone in his carpena. The return of Ostkowski was key to ensuring field shots and the appearance of best Alberto Díaz to generate game and defend as an animal. The Spanish infected his companions of that claw with which he suffocated the whites that makes him unique. The bad start of Real Madrid is explained by the data: 6 losses and 5/16 in field shots, anticompetitive.

Unicaja surprises Real Madrid in the first part
David Kravish managed to act as antidote against Walter Tavaresdeactivated, but almost without rest by another short circuit of Bruno Fernando. Perry's correosa defense, the consistency of Djedovicthe explosiveness of Tyson Carter… Everything went to Unicaja and it was already raining less on the roof of Ibon Navarro, who met in Malaga with the great version of his wide arsenal. The only negative for the Andalusians in the first part was Pérez's injury after a scandal mate on Garuba, which did not serve as a replacement for the Cape Verde.
The result to rest: 48-34 and thanks. Unicaja forced Real Madrid to react if he didn't want to throw the third game in the trash, and go if he did. Partial 5-12 in the resumption and in trouble Ibon Navarro, who asked for dead time with the whites closer (53-46). He fit the Malaga painting five more, but Carter broke the drought with a triple that unleashed a 7-0 to take off the merengues from the breast.
Hugo González And Fernando gave more reasons for faith to Unicaja, committing the personal thirds for the 2+1 of Sima and Carter, the third partial of his (11 points in 6 minutes, more than in the two previous clashes). Real Madrid saw himself too down until Muse took a triple from Goya and happy accompanied two more to counteract a coral tip of Djedovic and keep the game alive to the last quarter (70-60).
What Tavares took Real Madrid, two free throws failed with -8, he returned it in the following action: plug Barrelermate and point. All this with Fernando out of combat with four personnel. Facundo Facrazzo He turned on the flame of the comeback with two more to put his own only three points of Unicaja with three minutes ahead.
Controversial
The situation was limit to Unicaja, but a contact between Tavares and Sima in the fall after jumping through the ball caused a gap in the eyelid to the Spanish pivot and the game was stopped (80-70, min.27). The Andalusian team was already in Bonus, but resisted even with only one point of advantage after two free from Campazzo.
The nerves were evident. Carter scored two, Musa lost it, Ostkowski failed three, Idem El Bosnio and Perry forced Chus Matthew to penetrate tavares (84-79 to one minute). There was no room and Hezonja lived up to the two of disadvantage with possession, but the pivot of Cape Verde He pified her pushing Ostkowski after the Argentine's ruling to tie.
Perry ended up acting as a bloodied hero, annihilating a great second part of Real Madrid commanded by Campazzo and Tavares (13 and 15 of valuation). The American base, MVP of the Copa del Reygenerated those two shots of Alberto Díaz so that Unicaja clings to life in a league in a resistance exercise that already implemented against the Barcelona.
