Barça takes out the roller against Betis and puts pressure on Real Madrid and Baskonia

MADRID, 7 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) -

Barça beat Real Betis Baloncesto with authority (104-70) this Saturday in matchday 15 of the Endesa League, with a groundbreaking start to make the last triumph in the Clásico good, while Río Breogán won a beautiful Galician derby against Monbus Obradoiro (64-59) to continue aspiring to the Copa del Rey.

Sarunas Jasikevicius's team did not give a rival concerned with the relegation zone a chance to get even for the insipid match against Virtus de Bologna. The European defeat, when they aspired to the leadership of the Euroleague, woke up a Barça plugged in from the beginning with 11 points from Mirotic in the first quarter.

Betis paid the piper and the 'Saras' team had intensity and success to not release the comfortable rent. Da Silva and Higgins scored in the second quarter, while Vesley was the man in the third set and the young Nnaji in the last. A lot of work for a Betis overwhelmed at the Palau, where seven venues exceeded 10 points. Barça takes the lead (12-3) passing the pressure to Real Madrid and Cazoo Baskonia.

Meanwhile, Joventut also had a controlled victory (90-72) against Coviran Granada, to add the tenth of the season and continue in the upper zone. The 'Penya' recovered their rhythm after their defeat against Bàsquet Girona, especially in the first and third quarters, where they cemented their superiority against the Andalusians. Ellenson (16 points) and Ventura, the best in the green and black team.

For their part, Girona extended their good start to 2023 with the victory (75-83) over Carplus Fuenlabrada. The Catalan team had a stellar Quino Colom (25 points) and Marc Gasol who scored just one point but distributed 9 assists. A victory also in a direct duel, which leaves the people of Madrid bottom.

In addition, Río Breogán won the Galician derby in Lugo to continue fighting for a place in the Copa del Rey. Obradoiro had no response to the choral triumph of the locals, encouraged by a crowd that enjoyed the clash led by Arteaga and Happ as top scorers with 15 and 13 points, respectively.
