“To be honest, it was a bit of a fluke really but it went in and we won the game”, Sergio Llull explained with typical humility after his increbible 20-yard buzzer beater enabled Real Madrid’s basketball team to clinch a one-point win away at Valencia Basket.

It’s not the first time that the Madrid point guard has saved the day with last gasp shots from the field – he produced one in the Copa del Rey final against FC Barcelona in 2014 and more recently, hit Madrid’s last eight points in a desperately closely-run Copa semi-final meeting with Baskonia.

The Municipal Fuente de San Luis seems to be a lucky court for the Madrid No.23, who added after the game: “I’ve got nothing against Valencia’s fans but it’s true, this court always seems to bring me luck”.
