Carroll's three-pointer lifts Real Madrid over Bayern

In one of the best games in Turkish Airlines Euroleague regular season history, Real Madrid rallied from an 8-point deficit in the final three minutes to beat FC Bayern Munich 101-99 on a game-winning three-point shot by Jaycee Carroll. Rudy Fernandez and Felipe Reyes led the winners with 20 points apiece. Reyes added 11 rebounds for a double-double. Sergio Llull had 18 points, while Carroll finished with 14 for Madrid. Nihad Djedovic led Bayern with 22 points, Alex Renfroe added 21, K.C. Rivers had 15 against his former team while John Bryant scored 14 for the guests. Madrid got off to a strong start, as Reyes and Fernandez gave Los Blancos a 13-4 lead. Reyes kept pushing Madrid and a jumper by Rivers only brought Bayern within 33-20 after 10 minutes. Bryant and Renfroe stepped up for the guests early in the second quarter, but Carroll struck three times from downtown to keep Madrid way ahead, 45-34. Bryant, Taylor and a buzzer-beating triple by Rivers tied the game, 51-51, at halftime. Bayern got its first lead, 51-53, soon after the break and used a 0-10 run that Deon Thompson capped with a slam to get a 73-81 lead after three-quarters. A three-pointer by Djedovic seemed to seal the outome, 88-96, with less than three minutes left, but Llull and Fernandez fueled a 10-0 run which Gustavo Ayon capped with a layup for a 98-96 Madrid lead with 34.8 seconds. Renfroe struck from downtown, but Carroll hit the game-winning three-pointer with 3.6 seconds left, allowing Madrid to celebrate a critical win.

Felipe Reyes got Madrid going with tip-in, which Dusko Savanovic erased with a step-back jumper. Rudy Fernandez took over with a driving layup and Jonas Maciulis copied him for a 6-2 Madrid lead.

John Bryant scored down low and a three-point play by Reyes made it a double-digit game, 16-6. Djedovic buried a triple and Bryant banked in a turnaround jumper to get Bayern within 17-11. An unstoppable Reyes followed a three-pointer with a layup in an 8-0 run that he capped with free throws for a 25-11 advantage. Anton Gavel struck from downtown and Savanovic hit a turnaround jumper, but a second-chance layup by Trey Thompkins and a triple in transition by Fernandez restored a 30-16 Madrid lead. Llull joined the three-point shootout, but a dunk by Alex Renfroe and a buzzer-beating jumper by K.C. Rivers kept Bayern within 33-20 after 10 minutes.

Head Coaches

LASO, PABLO

Real Madrid

"The key was our start to the game; it showed us how to play against this team. But they played very good, very tough and stayed in the game. We made mistakes, but the good thing is that we never gave up, kept fighting and got a great victory in the end, playing hard defense, changing our defense and changing the rhythm they made us play during the game. They managed to play at the rhythm that suited them best and scored a lot of points late in the possessions despite us playing good defense. They grabbed a lot of offensive rebounds and scored from it, which hurt us. Jeff Taylor gave us a lot of energy. We used different defenses to change the game's rhythm and managed to do it in the end… I am very happy with this win because going down to 1-3 would have given the team a lot of pressure."

PESIC, SVETISLAV

FC Bayern Munich

"Congratulations to Real Madrid, but Bayern also deserved to win tonight. The problem is that we respected Madrid too much in the first quarter and played very bad defense. We improved after that, were able to run the floor and play good transition basketball. Other than the loss, this game is good for us to know that we are able to compete against first-level teams in Europe and beat them."

Players

CARROLL, JAYCEE

Real Madrid

"I am happy that we won. The last shot was great! It is fun to get a little excitement like that into our game. [It was] a great extra pass by Chacho [Rodriguez] to find me wide open, really, for a shot. In the end, the whole team fought hard and a lot of our players did very good things in the second half to overcome the deficit we had and win the game. On the final play, we had some extra passes and the ball fell in my hands… and I hit the shot. The most important thing is that we won the game. We knew that Bayern was going to be a tough, difficult team to beat. They are playing very well and kept its chances open until the final seconds."

FERNANDEZ, RUDY

Real Madrid

"Our strong points were the final two minutes, in which we were really aggressive. We played very good defense in the first quarter and this is when we got an 11-12 point lead. After that, maybe because we were tired or for things beyond our control, they returned to the game, hit three-point shots in transition and played really well. We trailed most of the way after that until those final two minutes, in which we improved and had a final shot to win the game. We knew it was a difficult group. We already lost two games on the road and if we had lost this game, things would have been really difficult for us. We have to be happy with the win."

RIVERS, KC

FC Bayern Munich

"It feels good to be back in Madrid. The most important thing was the game and we played an almost perfect one. We played unbelievably well, but it is unbelievable that we lost the game. It was a very balanced game and it is hard to say how the team feels after this loss. We must learn to play 40 minutes at our best level, the one we showed today in our best moments, and try to do even better than that."
