Just like in the first game, Igokea have struggled in the first half, ending it with a five-point deficit, but once more they have raised the level of their performance significantly in the second half, which they have won by 20 points.

In the third quarter they have turned the game around in their favour with a 22:12 partial score, which gave them a 5-point lead before the beginning of the final period. In the last one, they just finished their job – they have entered this part of the game with a 9:0 run and with a 55:41 score in their favour with 7 and a half minutes remaining, the game was more or less decided.

The final score was 74:59 in favour of the home side, for which James Robinson led the way in scoring with 23 points, while Strahinja Mićović added 16.
