This is how the Euroleague classification looks after the victories of Madrid and Valencia
Panathinaikos and Valencia Basket consolidate themselves as the two great dominators of this start by signing an immaculate record of four wins and zero losses. The Athenian team punched the table in the duel of giants against Fenerbahçe, which they completely dismantled with a resounding 92-74 thanks to a suffocating defense that skyrocketed their differential to a devastating +83. For its part, the taronja team confirmed its status as the most voracious attack in the continental competition after beating the Hapoel Tel Aviv by 93-82, already adding 405 points in favor and consolidating an impeccable second position.
The night also brought a vital respite for Real Madridwhich arrived with the alarms set off after three initial setbacks. The whites were reunited with their best version at the Movistar Arena to defeat a Partizan raging by 86-76. The victory allows those from the capital to inaugurate their locker (1-3) and inflicts the first defeat of the course on the Serbian bloc, which now shares the third and fourth steps (3-1) with Fenerbahçe, waiting for what they do Olympiacos and Barcelona in their pending commitments.
In the populated middle zone, the Star Red He starred in one of the most solid performances of the day when he stormed the Dubai court with authority (58-77), leaving both contenders tied in the group of teams with a balance of two wins and two losses. To that same equality at 50% the Virtus Bologna, which used its craft and offensive spirit to assault the fiefdom of Bayern of Munich by 87-94, stopping the Bavarians in their tracks.
The closing of the day also left the resurrection of maccabi Tel Aviv, which achieved its first joy of the season at the expense of an Olimpia Milano in free fall (97-79). With this score, the Israelis take oxygen and leave the Lombard team sunk in the last position due to the point differential, in an extremely compressed lower part where Madrid, Paris, Bayern, Maccabi and Milan share the same record of 1-3 desperately searching for the turning point.
