Olympia Milano lost 89:98 to Real Madrid in the EuroLeague on 13 October 2026. The visitors took advantage of their experience in these fixtures and closed out a game that stayed tight for most of the time. To be fair, the home side had their moments but could not find the consistency needed.
Milano came into the match sitting 14th after 38 games with 17 wins and 21 defeats, while Real Madrid occupied third place with 24 victories and 14 losses. The gap between them showed up in the final score, though the margin was not as wide as the table might suggest.
Real Madrid's shooting was sharper when it mattered. They hit 31 field goals compared to Milano's 29, and their 12 three-pointers outpaced the home side's 11. By then, the visitors had established enough separation to control the tempo without taking unnecessary risks.
We had called for an away victory before the game, 72 percent confidence, and the result confirmed that reading. Real Madrid's depth and composure in the closing stages proved decisive, while Milano's attack never quite found the rhythm to sustain pressure.
The statistics told a story of efficiency over volume. Real Madrid recorded 19 assists to Milano's 18, and their defensive rebounding edge of 27 to 21 helped limit second-chance opportunities. The home side committed 10 turnovers against 12 from the visitors, but the difference in shooting accuracy carried the day.
Milano's recent form had been mixed, with victories over Treviso and Virtus Bologna alongside defeats to Maccabi Tel Aviv and Vitoria-Gasteiz. Real Madrid's run was steadier, including a 120:83 win over Manresa and an 86:76 victory against Partizan. This result kept their third-place position secure and extended Milano's struggles in the lower half of the table.
