Real Madrid keeps on its winning streak after a tough 91-85 victory over AX Armani Exchange Olimpia Milan on the road in Round 2 of Turkish Airlines EuroLeague.

Anthony Randolph was the enchanted hero of the day for the Spanish team, as his double-double of 25 points and 11 rebounds led the way to this tough victory.

At the same time, Facu Campazzo was hot from the three-point line (4/6) and finished the game with 21 points. The Argentinean guard practically sealed off the victory with a long-range shot made with just a minute left in the game, followed by the cherry on top that came from Randolph’s hands.

As Madrid’s coach Pablo Laso said after the game: “I think that Randolph was the player that stayed more solid during 40 minutes, offensively and defensively. He was giving great help, rebounding. Everybody will probably speak about his shots and points, but I think he did a lot of good things for us.

After a challenging first half, the visiting team started getting back to the game, paced by Tavares and Randolph, though the hosts remained in the battle until the final minutes!

Mike James and Vladimir Micov both managed to cause a lot of harm to Real (with 21 and 20 points each), though in the end weren’t able to hand Milano its second win of the season.
