The drama of the last matchday: Betis relegated after another incredible comeback by Real Madrid

The anguish of the last day of the regular season of the Endesa League left tears in Seville, as Real Betis consummated their relegation to LEB Oro after falling at the WiZink Center against a Real Madrid that with 2:25 to go was down 70- 77. A 9-0 run led by Williams-Goss and a last forced shot missed by Jean Montero led to the salvation of Covirán Granada, who beat Joventut at home (73-62).

The party at the Palacio de Granada, where the team, promoted last year, managed to stay in the ACB after coming back from La Penya with 20 points from Bropleh. At the same time, the news of the Verdiblanco collapse in Madrid arrived -he dominated the entire second game with a great Tyson Pérez- and the tears in the stands turned into euphoria. “It's crazy. This city deserved to continue in this League. These fans have believed all year, ”claimed the center Petit Niang.

The triumph of a Real Madrid that was not affected by the hangover from winning the Euroleague on Sunday in Kaunas and that once again starred in some exciting last minutes (seven points in a row from Williams-Goss, who was the best) is of no use to them, however, to reach second place. This will be for Baskonia, who won in Girona (70-75). The whites will face Gran Canaria in the quarterfinals (the Euroleague champion against the Eurocup champion) and the Vitorians against Joventut. If both advance, they will meet in the semifinals with a home field advantage for Joan Peñarroya's men.

Valencia lost to Breogán (77-80), but obtained the last ticket to the playoffs thanks to the defeat of UCAM Murcia in Barcelona. The azulgranas will meet the taronja and Tenerife and Unicaja complete the quarterfinals that start this weekend.
