Real Madrid will play its eleventh EuroLeague semifinal this Friday in Athens, the fourth in the last five years. Out of the 10 they have played, our team has won 7, the last three consecutively during the 2021-22, 2022-23, and 2023-24 seasons. During this period, they were crowned champions in 2015, 2018, and 2023.
The madridista team boasts a 70% win rate in EuroLeague semifinals. The first time they reached the final under the competition’s current name was in the 2012-13 season, in London, defeating Barcelona 67-74. In the following two seasons, 2013-14 and 2014-15, they also qualified for the championship game. In Milan, they did so after again beating Barcelona 62-100, marking the largest point difference in a semifinal. In Madrid, our team overcame Fenerbahce 96-87 to eventually lift the title in the final against Olympiacos.
