Real Madrid extended its winning streak in continental play to six consecutive games by defeating Fenerbahçe 95-76, abc.es reported. Pedro Martínez guided his squad through its first major test of the EuroLeague season against a Turkish side that entered as a candidate to defend its title.

An Offensive Arsenal Sets the Pace Early

The clash began at a blistering pace with high-contact intensity from both rosters. Wade Baldwin and Larkin sparked an early 4-9 run for Fenerbahçe, but Real Madrid playmaker Facundo Campazzo answered immediately with two deep three-pointers. Campazzo’s baskets restored the lead for the home side before Talen Horton-Tucker and Will Clyburn countered with precise perimeter scoring for the visitors.

By the second quarter, Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot contributed four consecutive points, followed by a powerful dunk from center Walter Tavares that stretched the Madrid advantage to six points. Fenerbahçe struggled with ball movement and individual isolation plays while Sarunas Jasikevicius called consecutive timeouts to halt the momentum. Horton-Tucker and Key provided temporary relief to prevent a wider deficit before halftime, leaving the scoreboard at 47-42 in favor of the hosts.

Fenerbahçe's Third-Quarter Defensive Shutdown Limits Real Madrid to Four Points

Fenerbahçe opened the third quarter with a defensive lockdown, limiting Real Madrid to just four points over the first four minutes. However, the Turkish side failed to capitalize offensively, allowing the home team to maintain its cushion. Gabriele Procida hit a timely three-pointer, followed by perimeter makes from Chimezie Okeke, pushing the margin out to 12 points as the crowd at the Palacio found its voice.

Faced with a mounting deficit, Fenerbahçe mounted a 0-9 run led by Clyburn in the final quarter.
