Kungcono ukungazami ukumamela. Kuya kufuneka uyonwabele le Madrid ukuba, kwakhona, ngokuchasene nazo zonke izinto ezingathandekiyo kwaye xa ubusuku bubonakala bubumnyama, waqinisekisa umama wabo bonke ababuyayo. Abamhlophe babethe iPartizan xa ilandela emva kwe-16 ngexesha lokuphumla, sibulela uChacho, omnye wabadlali ababalaseleyo kwimbali yelizwe lethu, ophawule umdlalo uWiZink aza kuwulibala kungekudala. Ukutyhala kwakhe kwenza iMadrid izalwe ngokutsha kwaye isiqhelo (uLlull, uRudy) wagqiba ukugqiba umsebenzi kwikota yokugqibela. Uloyiso olwatshabalalisa izibalo (akukho mntu wayebuyile kwi-2-0 kwimbali ye-Euroleague) kwaye loo nto ithumela iMadrid eKaunas, apho kwakhona, baya kuphinda bakhuphisane ukuba babe ngukumkani waseYurophu. Nangona esenza njengabo bangoLwesithathu, sele bemenza ukuba afanelekele eso sihloko.
Isihogo sinokuhamba kakuhle kwelizwe. Kakade kunye ne-atmosphere ye-Stark Arena njengephupha elibi, i-WiZink yanikezelwa izolo i-bucolic, i-Spanish kakhulu, enelanga elimnyama kwi-façade yayo kwaye ihlala igcwele i-pitchers kwindawo ejikelezileyo. "Ngalo lonke ixesha kukho ibhiya, akukho ngxaki", echaza amapolisa ngokuziphatha kwamaSerbs eMadrid, iiBalkans zinomdla kakhulu kwaye zinentsomi efana noFernando Romay ecaleni kwabo, ehlala ebonakala enesimo esihle kwaye ichukumisekile kancinci ngeengoma zeendwendwe 'iLos Berserkers' yenza umzamo wokunika umphefumlo kulowo wangaphambili, kodwa iMadrid ayikho iBelgrade. Apha ufumana intlonipho ebaleni, hayi kwiindawo zokuma.
UMateo wamangala kwasekuqaleni ngokubandakanya uNdiaye oselula, oneminyaka eli-19 ubudala, kunye ne-monster Tavares kwi-XNUMX yokuqala, umqeqeshi uyazi ukuba iinketho zeMadrid zazinokugqithisa amaSerbs phantsi kweehupu. Kwaye iSenegal yenza kakuhle kakhulu emdlalweni, inika i-muscle kunye ne-vehemence kwi-basketball emhlophe, edibanisa ukujikeleza kakuhle kunye nesiphaluka esifutshane, ngelixa i-Partizan izama ukukhupha umbulelo kumgangatho ngamnye wePunter.
Umdlalo uya kuba ngumwonyo ongapheliyo, odinisayo, ogcwele iingozi kunye nokumisa. Umdlalo ngamnye ubuyiVietnam kwaye amanqaku ongeza amanqaku ngokucotha okugqithisileyo. Ngelo xesha kwavela i-clairvoyance ye-Chacho, eyaphinda yaba ngumkhokeli kwityholo. Awona maxesha alungileyo eMadrid kweli qhina angenile phantsi komyalelo we-canary, kwaye yindlela ekufuneka amkelwe ngayo. Nangona kunjalo, uPartizan akazange ahlehle, wabetha ngokungenalusini isimilo sasekhaya kwaye waba ngoyena unobuchule kwabasindileyo. Ukongeza, iintsilelo ezintathu zikaTavares ngaphambi kwekhefu kunye ne-labyrinthine arbitration ayizange imeme ithemba. Inzuzo yokutyelela ayizange iyeke ukukhula, ukuphuma kwegazi kwaqala ukungalawuleki.
IMadrid izamile ukusabela ngotshintshiselwano olukhawulezayo, iqela elinebhongo elifumana ithafa elamkela ububi babo. UHezonja noHanga babeziintshatsheli zolu tshintsho luncinci luvuthele iWiZink, ethe kwimizuzwana embalwa yasuka ekuphoxekeni yaya kutsho ekubeni nethemba. Nangona kunjalo, ibhodi yamanqaku ka-Obradovic ayiphindaphindeki, ayinqandeki, kwaye imidlalo yakhe, njengoko yenzeka kumdlalo wesibini, yavumela abafundi bakhe ukuba bafumane amanqaku ngokulula, ngakumbi ukusuka ezikoneni. Ukhuselo lwe-Real Madrid lwabandezeleka kakhulu, alukwazi ukutolika ulwimi lomzimba lwamaSerbs, awathi kancinci kancinci wakrazula ukumkani waseYurophu, nangona wabeka yonke inyama ekutshiceleni ekuhlaseleni. Begqunywe amehlo kwaye ngokutsiba kokholo enzonzobileni, abafundi bakaMateo bakwazile ukugcina ilangatye lethemba liphila. “Kude kube sekupheleni, masihambe ngokwenyani”, zagquma izikhululo.
U-El Chacho waqhubeka eshicilela isigqi somtyholi ekuhlaselweni, ebalaseleyo ukusebenza kwakhe, ukususela ngelo xesha, ukonakalisa isikhumbuzo, kwaye abamhlophe baqala ukukholelwa. NguPunter kuphela okwazileyo ukuthulisa i-cauldron eyayisiba yi-rectinto evela eMadrid, owayewa nokubuya okweshumi kweqela lakhe. Kwi-Partizan, ekhangeleka ngathi yindlu engenakukhuseleka, amathandabuzo angena ebusweni be-pyrotechnics, i-Real Madrid ephupheni, njengobusuku babo obuhle, xa bengenakunqotshwa ngokoqobo. U-Llull, owayesisiphithiphithi enguthixo, waqalisa ukuxhasa ibhokisi yomngcwabo yaseSerbia, ngesikhonkwane, ngokuphindwe kathathu. Akukho mntu unokuchaza iMadrid, into engalawulekiyo kunye ne-epic enento enye kuphela engqondweni: ukuphumelela.
