Virtus, challenge with Real Madrid: where to watch it on TV

Bologna, March 12, 2025 - It is the day of celebrations for the Virtus. Second consecutive home challenge for Virtus who after having beaten on Monday Trento and having relaunched his ambitions in the championship, he is also trying to assert himself in Euroleague.

The challenge with Real Madrid

Tomorrow evening at 20.45pm, at Segafredo Arena, comes a Real Madrid looking for points to improve a ranking that, given the potential, sees the Blancos in full fight for a place in the playoffs or play-in.

The Euroleague standings see the Galacticos in twelfth place and currently out of the second phase of the season. Real's record is 14-14, the same as Efes, and just one win away from Milan, Barcelona e Partizan, then from the play-ins, and two wins from Paris and Red Star for direct access to the playoff.

In the midst of the brawl, Real will arrive in Bologna looking for points to climb their ranking, which given the budget and the quality of the squad, could have been expected to be very different.

Dal canto suo, Virtus cannot and does not want to give discounts to anyone and will try, even if with one eye already set on Sunday evening's challenge in Naples, to put a spoke in the Spaniards' wheels.

Statements from the protagonists

"We play against Real Madrid who are a team that wants to win and wants to get into the playoffs but we also want to win because I consider my players and my team a winning team - he confirmed coach Dusko Ivanovic - We want to fight until the end to bring this match home.”

25th Anniversary of Euroleague

Furthermore, the Euroleague must be honored, with Virtus celebrating the Euroleague 25th Anniversary, the top European competition that in its first year of life, in the 2000/2001 season, saw the Black V on the roof of Europe, with a special jersey. The black and whites will in fact wear a singlet with the reference on the shirt of the first badge social of SEF Virtus, the parent company that has granted the use of the scudetto with the 4Fs arranged in a cross. “Strong, Frank, Firm, Proud” and this is what the black and white people expect from tomorrow's challenge and in general until the end of this season.

“A great deal awaits us very important match because we know that Real Madrid will come here to try to play the best game possible - he confirmed Toko Shengelia -. I think we are trying to build something special right now, and winning this match could be an important step to continue in this direction".
