The result

Real Madrid beat Fenerbahce 95-76 at the Movistar Arena on Thursday, 29 October, in the Euroliga 2026-2027 regular season, its sixth straight Euroliga win. EL PAÍS and EL MUNDO count it as a tenth straight victory across the ACB and the Euroliga combined. Madrid started slowly, committing 15 turnovers, more than half of them in the first quarter, and it made only 11 of 32 three-point attempts. Fenerbahce, coached by Saras Jasikevicius, led 4-11 early before Madrid's rotations levelled the game. Facundo Campazzo hit his first two threes and drove the comeback, and Europa Press reports that Madrid found its rhythm in the third quarter.

Defence after the break

Madrid's defence tightened after half-time, when it held Fenerbahce to 34 points after the break. Chuma Okeke was credited with strong defensive work, and Madrid was able to contain Shane Larkin and Wade Baldwin IV. Clyburn scored 21 points for Fenerbahce, according to EL PAÍS, and Madrid still conceded 20 offensive rebounds, a weakness the coach openly acknowledged. A series of threes after the break pushed Madrid's lead to 70-55, and Fenerbahce's comeback attempts never closed the gap.

Maledon, Campazzo and Tavares

Theo Maledon scored 26 points and grabbed 7 rebounds, and El Mundo described it as another display by the French guard. Campazzo finished with 10 points and 10 assists, while Walter Tavares added 14 points. El Mundo also credited Maledon's penetrations with pushing Madrid's lead to 13 in the second quarter. Pedro Martínez said Maledon was working well and was now more settled and more mature. Europa Press listed Mikael Jantunen's first-half injury as the worst news for Madrid, after the 20 offensive rebounds conceded.

The coach's view

Pedro Martínez praised his players' mentality after a difficult start. He said Madrid had defended well except for the first seven minutes, while admitting that defensive rebounding was a clear weakness. He described the team's play in the second half as better, with more ball movement and better shots.

“It was a very hard and very physical game, in which it cost us a bit to get going, with turnovers and easy baskets.”

Martínez said he was more concerned with the team than with individual performances. He also warned against complacency after the win.

“We are a team in formation like any other, and we have many things to improve and grow, we must not fall into complacency.”

He added that the game was satisfying because the team overcame the style Fenerbahce had proposed.
