BarcelonaBarça beat Urbas Fuenlabrada in an awkward match that was not decided until the last minute (69-86). The 19 balls lost by the Barça team became an added difficulty against a rival who competed hard. Brandon Davies, who scored 18 points and forced 7 personal fouls, was the best player of the Catalan team, in which he also highlighted the work of Kyle Kuric (15 points).
“It has not been our best game and we have not been able to decide the victory before on a very difficult track,” said Sarunas Jasikevicius, who gave Sertaç Sanli a break in a week in which Barça will have to play three games. The staging of the Catalan team was good (0-7), but Urbbas Fuenlabrada used a partial 16-4 to take the initiative on the scoreboard (16-11). The Catalan defense had trouble controlling the movements of Kyle Alexander, who scored 12 points in the first half (31-37).
Barça used a good third quarter from Brandon Davies to build a 15-point lead (36-51). Urbas Fuenlabrada did not give up and was able to reach the beginning of the fourth period with a disadvantage of only 5 points (57-62). The final stretch of the visiting team’s match, however, was very solid.
